But, although the general sequence of the "beds was established, the observations made 
were insufficient to enable a map to be prepared showing the distribution of the different 
strata. Eurther examination was necessary for this purpose ; and Dr. Stoliczka always hoped 
to return to the Himalayas and complete the work he had so well begun. The severe and 
long-continued labour necessary for the preparation of his great work on the cretaceous fossils 
of Southern India engrossed the whole of his time ; and, as has already been mentioned, his 
health was seriously affected by the exposure he underwent in his second Himalayan journey, 
so that, for a year or two at least, he was unfitted for work involving severe exertion. Thus 
the sketch he made — for such it was — has never been filled up ; no geological map of the 
Western Himalayas has ever been published, and the idea which can he formed of the distri- 
bution of the known strata is, at the best, fragmentary. 
It is as well, before proceeding further, to point out, in such a manner as to render it 
easily recognised on the map, the area to which Dr. Stoliczka’s observations were chiefly con-
