found in tlie Hnrst and Richmond shales, from which are described, 
and the range given of, eleven species of Carboniferous Entomostraca. 
The author also catalogues nineteen species of Carboniferous Forami- 
nifera, all of which had been described and figured in the admirable 
MonogTaph of Carboniferous and Permian Foraminifera by Mr. H. B. 
Brady. Mr. Brady does not catalogue Saccammina Carteri as a York- 
shire form ; yet Mr. Vine discovered in the shales of Downholm, both 
Nodosinella concinna, Brady, and S. Carteri, Brady, in the Hurst debris. 
Further notes on new species and other Yorkshire. Carboniferous 
Polyzoa. In this paper the author deals with and revises the early 
work of Phillips, as described in the Geology of Yorkshire. Calamo- 
pora tumida, Phill. is redescribed, and illustrated and placed in the 
Monticuliporidce group of Nicholson. There are, however, certain 
characters pointed out in this and other species, regarded by the 
author as new, which have since been fully investigated by Messrs. 
Young, and Nicholson and Foord. The latter authors restore the 
Ceramopora megastoma, M'Coy, of the present paper to the Fistuli- 
pora group as F. incrustans, Phillips.'' In the Family Rhabdomeson- 
tidfe Vine, species closely allied to American forms, are described or 
referred to. Certain forms found in the shales were new, and some 
of these were placed in the Genus Rhombopora, Meek, by the author, 
while others were described and illustrated and placed in the (M.S.) 
Genus Streblotrypa, Ulrich, which has been since then fully estab- 
lished by Mr. Ulrich in American Pakeontological AYorks.f This 
is an important paper, and its contents and references were over- 
looked by Nicholson and Foord, and also by Mr. John Young in their 
later descriptions. | 
The Carboniferous Polyzoa of West Yorkshire and Derbyshire, 
read in 1884. Mr. Vine wrote this paper to attempt the identification 
of Philhps' species from material placed in his hands by the late ^Ir. 
John Aitken. This paper deals with species of Polyzoa whicli up to 
the time of writing were either rare or little known from any Derby- 
shire locality. Mr. Aitken obtained his examples from a thin layer
