N.B. — In the “ Quarterly Journal of the Geol. Soc. Lon.” Vol. 1., p. 407, under the head 
of “Accounts of certain species of Silurian fossils from Hobart’s Town, N.S.W.” !! the above 
species arc accredited to Mt. Wellington — and, the author adds, " the same species arc 
found in Van Diemen’s Land, and besides them a great abundance of Jletcpora, Cyatho - 
;phyllum, Calamopora, Clypeanter, and Dentalvrrm, which are rarely met with in the 
neighbourhood of Mt. Wellington. All these specimens were collected in the hills of 
Morambiji to the south of the Blue Mountains, and the beds containing them are partly 
covered, as at Hobart’s Town, with recent lignites.” !!! 
This curious medley is described as “extracted from the * Village dt. la Ilomtc: Geol. cl 
Mineralogie f par M.E. Chevalier, p. 332.’ ” 
I have little doubt that the Silurian species came from the Murrumbidgee, and the 
Carboniferous from Tasmania.—W.B.C.
