place they cannot be contemporaneous with the Glauconitic Bank; for the species of 
Brachiopoda show nothing in common. Therefore they must be either younger or 
older. So far as the table of zoological comparison goes, they would seem to be 
younger — to be Pliocene; but it may be admitted that the Brachiopod fauna gives 
very little evidence. Lingtila^ for instance, is a very persistent genus in which chan- 
ges of shape are not striking; and the comparison of the Antarctic Lingula with one
