THE LAST DECADE. 
or bind in the Castleton Limestone. Twelve species are described, 
and the author gave the liistory of GLauconome bipinnata ? Phill, 
and described an example identical with, or closely related to that 
peculiar species. 
In 1885 Mr. Vine read some notes on the Yoredale Polyzoa of 
North Lancashire, and described a fine series of Polyzoa from the Yore- 
dale horizon of Xorth Lancashire. Li 1884 Mr. J. W. Kirkby, F.G.S., 
was working these shales for Entomostraca, and the fragments of 
Polyzoa were .handed over to Mr, Vine. Thirty-five species and 
varieties are described, new species illustrated, and the range, in 
tabular form, of Carboniferous Polyzoa in Yoredale rocks given. 
Mr. Vine also contributed Notes on the Polyzoa and Foraminifera 
of the Cambridge Greensand. In this paper the author described, and 
partially illustrated, tv, enty-three species of Polyzoa and Foraminifera, 
most of which were new to British rocks of this horizon. Since the 
paper was written the author finds that a species described as new 
(Entalophora striatopora, Vine), is closely related to, if not identical 
with Entalophora liueata, Beissel. The species is described by Beissel 
(Ueber d. Bry. d. Aachen Kreid, p. 80, taf. 9, figs. 116-119), and a 
variety of Beissel's species is described and illustrated by Prof. Reuss 
in Das Ethalg. iu Sach. Geinitz, (Die Foram. Bry. and Ostracod. des 
Planers, p. 133, taf. n, 25, figs. 5-6). A new interest is lent to this 
discovery on account of the peculiar range, British and Foreign, of 
this singular form, as one of the citations of Reuss, following that of 
Beissels, 1865, is 1872, Sfcoliczka, PalcTont. indica. iv, 2. The Cilio- 
poda, p. 31, taf. 3, figs. 9-10. 
Another species, re-described in this paper by the author, (Quart. 
Journ. Geol. Soc, 1884), properly belongs to this series, and the speci- 
mens were handed over for description by the late lamented Mr. G. Busk, 
and the form though named Lichenopora (?) paucipora, Vine, is un- 
like any other known Upper Greensand Lichenoporidte. 
During 1886-7 Mr. Vine read three papers on the Palaeontology 
of the Wenlock Shales ; on the Polyzoa of the Wenlock Shales ; and 
on the Distribution of Entomostraca in the Wenlock Shales. The 
papers on the Wenlock Shales of Shropshire are the outcome of 
much laborious investigation on the part of the author, other papers
