XXI. NEW ZEALAND FOSSILS. 
The names given to the Fossils in the following 
lists are in most cases only provisional, being only em- 
ployed for the purpose of facilitating the Geological 
Survey of the Islands, the Collections not having yet 
been submitted to accurate paleontological investiga- 
tion. In those cases where the Fossils haye been 
identified with any of the forms figured in Hochstet- 
ter’s work on the Geology of New Zealand,* a refer- 
ence is given to the Plate.
