"The gastropodoue shells are very numerous and belong to the genera: 
Voluta , F.o stellar ia , Mat lea , Phoru® , Cypraaa , etc* Among them I found 
many specimens of a large Nerita closely resembling* if not identical 
with the cono idea Lam* of the Eocene beds around Paris and other 
places* One large species of the genus Cerithium seems to me to be 
identical with the C. giganteum L&rak. from the Eocene beds of Paris* 
"The bivalves are very numerous. They are represented by large 
oysters, one Pinna , Spondylus , Plleatula , Xnoceramue (?), Lucina , Tellina , 
Sardita , Cardium , etc* 
"The fossil fauna has a decidedly Eocene appearance and may be classed 
as equivalent to the middle Eocene beds of Europe (C&lcaire grossier, 
Bracklesham beds)* The occurrence of fossils of the same species as well 
in St. Bartholomew as in the San Fernando beds of Trinidad seems to me 
to prove that the latter also are of Eocene date."

derived from a restudy of hie type material, kindly loaned by the Univer-
