GRAPTOLITES OF AUSTRALIA 
Kerrie Conglomerate. They suggested that the age of the 
Kerrie Conglomerate is basal Silurian. 
1923. — T. S. Hall (91) recorded from Phosphate Hill, 
Mansfield, Tetragraptus decipiens and T. approximatus. 
R. A. Keble (92) recorded the same species from Phosphate 
Hill, Mansfield, and placed them in the Upper Cambrian in 
conformity with American stratigraphy. 
H. Herman (93) published zone maps and sections of the 
Bendigo Goldfield based on a subdivision of the Bendigo 
Series published therewith. 
H. S. Summers (95) listed the graptolites from the 
Bacchus Marsh and Coimadai District and he (96) reviewed 
the evidence for the age of the Kerrie Conglomerate and gave 
lists of graptolites from Allot. 20, Parish of Newham; Allot. 
5, Parish of Macedon ; and Allot. 48a, 109 and 114, Parish of 
Kerrie. 
E. W. Skeats. (97) gave faunal lists in the Lancefield and 
Romsey districts. Most of the species had already been 
recorded (23, 24, 27, and 39). From the Bendigo Series, 
however, on the northern boundary of Allot. 49, Parish of 
Goldie, he recorded Tetragraptus fruticosus (3 and 4 
branched), Goniograptus macer and Phyllograptus. In the 
railway cutting two miles east of Kilmore Gap he recorded 
Silurian species and he stated that Monograptus had been 
found two miles south-east of the cutting. 
1924. — ^W. J. Harris (98) described and figured Didymo- 
graptus v-deflexus sp. nov., Lasiograptus (Thysanograptus) 
etJieridgei sp. nov., Retiograptus speciosiis sp. nov., Glimaco- 
graptus riddellensis sp. nov., Glossograptus hincksi, Didymo- 
graptus (Isograptus) caduccus. He described and commented 
on Cardiograptus gen. and G. morsus sp., Oncograptus 
hiangulatiis, Diplograptus gnomonicus, Trigonograptus ensi- 
formis and Thamnograptus capillaris. 
Diplograpsus mucronatus (13) was relegated to the 
synonymy of Lasiograptus (T.) etJieridgei, Diplograptus 
rectangularis (14) to Glimacograptus riddellensis and Diplo- 
grapsus mucronatus (14) to Glossograptus hincksii. 
F. Chapman (99) gave a systematic list of Tanjilian fossils 
in which he includes Gryptograptus sp., Monograptus cf. 
cremdatus, M. (?) dukius (“in Jordan River series”) and 
M. cf. jaekeli. In regard to this list he adds the following 
note: “doubtfully included here. Occurring in the typical 
Walhalla Series, and high in that series, plant remains 
occur.” {Gryptograptus is probably written in error for 
Gyrtograptus.)
