Ohs. — A species of the type genus Cythere was many years ago 
recorded^ by Sir E. McCoy, from Diinvegan. Comparing it with the British 
forms of the same species, he says : “ The agreement in outline, central 
hollow, and its little marginal tubercle, &c., being absolutely perfect, and 
admitting of no doubt,” when compared with the former. I have not met 
with the species, O. hnpressa, McCoy. 
Family — C YFRID^. 
Ohs. — The genus Bairdia represents this Eamily by two species in our 
Carboniferous, or Bermo- Carboniferous beds: B. affinis, Morris,^ and 
B. curias, McCoy.^ The first is from Booral, on the Karuah E.iver, collected 
originally liy the late Count Paul de Strzelecld ; the second was described by 
McCoy from Dunvegan. 
0 rder — T rilobita. 
Family — BB OETIBjF. 
Ohs. — Until the appearance of Be Koninck’s work, the only Trilobite 
of Carboniferous age described from New South Wales was McCoy’s Bracliy- 
metopus Strzelecki,* from Dunvegan. Prof. De Kouinck figured two others^ 
referring them to the European Giijfithides seminiferus, PhilL,® and 
Bhillipsia FicJncaldi, Eischer.® "With the second of these I am unacquainted, 
but the fragment figured under the first name, with the jmstulose test, is 
possilily Phillips’ species, although more perfect material must be obtained 
liefore a definite opinion can be passed. The fossil described as B. Eichioaldi 
does not, in my opinion, appertain to that species, but is more probably 
identical with a Griffithides I have named G. Sweeti from the Permo- 
Carboniferous rocks of Queensland. Small tubercles or pustules are visible 
on the glabella in De Koninck’s figure cited, similar to those of the Queens- 
land species.
