SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS. 
1. Stratigraphical and Faunistic. 
From the preceding Table (pp. 237—240) the following facts may readily 
be gathered: the number of different forms found; the number of specimens of 
each form; the localities at which those specimens were found; the number of 
each species, and eventually the total number of specimens, from each locality. 
A fevv notes may render the names of the localities more intelligible to the 
English reader. The Muschelkalk localities are all in Zala megye (Zala county). 
Felsö means ‘upper’; Also, ‘lower’; hegy is a hill; domb, a butte; E r d 6, a 
wood; Takarekpenztär, the Savings Bank; pados meszkö, bedded lime¬ 
stone ; L ä n c z i is the name of an estate. 
The various beds at each locality, denoted in the text by such signs as b 2, 
e4, are not differentiated in the table, since their stratigraphical value has not proved 
to be great. For the present it does not seem possible to assign the rocks more 
precisely than to Muschelkalk or Conchylian, Cassian, and Raiblian. The localities 
are therefore associated according to those ages. The Order of the species, on the 
other hand, is essentially zoological and systematic, for, when the work was begun, 
the Information at my disposal as to the relative horizons of the fossiliferous beds 
was incomplete and uncertain, so that no attempt was made to deal with the spe¬ 
cimens in stratigraphical order or according to locality. 
By the time the Crinoid remains had been worked through it was recognised 
that, apart from the four localities whence six Muschelkalk fossils were obtained, 
the ten other localities could be divided into two sets, each yielding a common 
assemblage of species. One of these, which we may call the Cserhät group, com- 
prised Cserhät (Leitnerhof), Section VI. at Veszprem, Csösz-domb, and Giricses- 
domb. The other, which may be called the Jeruzsälemhegy group, comprised 
Jeruzsälemhegy, Cutting I on the Veszprem-Jutas Railway, a quarry near Cutting I, 
Cutting IV, an opening on the Länczi estate at Veszprem, and Section VII at 
Kökepalja. Except for four doubtful specimens, the crinoid fossils found in the 
Cserhät group are quite distinct from those in the Jeruzsälemhegy group. 
In attempting to decide on the comparative age of these groups, or on their 
age relative to one another, the Crinoid evidence at first appeared unsatisfactory 
owing to the paucity of specimens belonging to known species. It was, however, 
noted that the specimens of Encrinus, as well as the doubtful Entrochi, were 
confined to the Cserhät group, and, on general evolutionary grounds, this suggested 
that the Cserhät group was the older. The columnals of Encrinus are not very
