In this paper arc important indications about the Iguana Creek beds 
and the Avon Sandstone. In the Appendix (p. 72) the Iguana Creek beds 
are described as “Base of Carboniferous, or top of Devonian passage beds.” 
Also a report of Prof. M £ Coy, on a collection of fossils from Iguana Creek, is 
communicated (p. 72) : — ££ I have examined the whole of the plants in the 
rocks from the Iguana Creek, and can recommend that the rocks be coloured 
as Upper Devonian.” Then the fossils are named — Archceopteris Uowitti ; 
Aneimitcs iguanensis and Cordaites australis (p. 73). He added: — “The 
collocation of these genera is characteristic of the Upper Devonian, combined 
with the absence of types, characteristic of the other formations.” 
Mr. Howitt adds : — ££ It seems most advisable, in the present state of 
information, as suggested to me by Prof. M‘Coy, that the term Upper 
Devonian should be restricted to the immediate locality of the plant beds of 
Iguana Creek, while the remainder of the great group of strata, heretofore 
known as the Avon Sandstones, should be . . . regarded as Carboniferous.”
