Geological Elitome. 
The preceding work comprises a description of one hundred and 
seventy-six siiecies of Carboniferous fossils, all collected with great care by 
the Eev. W. B. Clarke in various parts of New South Wales, and most of 
which have been figured with the greatest possible accuracy. 
Of these species there are one hundred and three the existence of 
Avhich in Australia was previously unknown, fifty-nine are new to science, and 
there are seventy-four whose existence has been proved in the Carboniferous 
rocks of Europe. 
In the following tables I have marked each species with an asterisk 
when it occurs in Europe, or in one of the three important regions of 
Australia, i.e.. New South Wales, Tasmania, and Queensland,^ so that its 
distribution can he seen at a glance.
