GRAPTOLITES OF AUSTRALIA 
2nd, beds with abundant THdymograptus Hfidus and with 
Phyllograptus typus, newer than 
1st beds with Tetragraptus fruticosus and Phyllograptus 
typus, the oldest beds observed. 
This is in agreement with delimitations at Castlemaine, 
but Hart said that he had not collected in beds that can be 
decisively referred to that part of the series in which Didymo- 
graptus cadiiceus has begun to be common and Phyllograptus 
typus has not disappeared. On the other hand, there are 
apparently beds at Daylesford above the horizon at which 
Tetragraptus fruticosus ceases to be connnon but older than 
the beds with abundant Didymograptus hifidus which may be 
a local unimportant peculiarity. He tabulated the species 
records under the numbers of their localities and marked 
them on a transverse section. 
T. W. E. David (62) recorded Leptograptus from a locality 
about two miles westerly from Berriedale, on the Kosciusko 
Plateau, New South Wales. 
1909. — T. S. Hall (63) recorded from Tallong, New South 
Wales, DiceMograptus elegans, Dicranograptus nicholsoni, D. 
Mans var. apertus, D. cf. cyathiformis, Diplograptus, D. 
foliaceus, Climacograptus hicornis, Cryptograptus tricornis, 
and Glossograptus guadrimucronatus. 
He smnmarized (64) our knowledge of Victorian grapto- 
lites. He stated that Tetragraptus approximatus was an 
important zone fossil, being associated with both the lower 
part of the Bendigonian and the upper part of the Lance- 
fieldian. 
He examined a graptolite from Ballarat and considered it 
to be a Dichograptid, but otherwise indetenninate. 
W. G. Woolnough (65) stated that an abundant and well 
preserved graptolite-fauna is present in the slates at Marulan 
and Tallong, New South Wales. 
C. F. Laseron (66) exhibited Biplograp)tus, Climaco- 
graptus and Dicellograptus from a band of black slate in a 
creek crossing the Adaminaby Eoad, 11 miles from Cooma, 
New South Wales. He regarded the strata as a continuation 
of that of the Berriedale area. 
1910. — F. Chapman (67) commented on graptolites from 
the Yarra Improvement Works, excavations made along the 
south side of the River Yarra, between Brander’s Ferry and 
the South Yarra Railway Bridge. He stated that they “may 
be provisionally referred to as two types, which bear certain 
resemblances in the shape and width of the thecae to Mono- 
graptus concinnus Lapw. and M. cyphus Lapw.
