The author draws attention to the occurrence in various Tertiary for- 
mations of pairs of species of Nummulites and Assilina^ and states his 
belief that the two forms in each of these cases are distinct species, and 
not merely varieties of one species. (See Munier-Chalmas, infra.') 
This author also gives, in Verb. schw. Ges. Ixiii. p. 51, some details of ' 
the Nummulites of the Western Alps, and the distribution of Nummulitic
