The conglomerate under consideration belongs to a serpentine
belt and associated series uf basic igneous rocks of undetermined
area. It is situated in the parish of Dolodrook, county of
Wonnangatta, about 7 or 8 miles in a straight line west from
Mt. Wellington. The country is rough and precipitous, so that
the very short time available for examining the occurrence did
not 23ermit of any attempt being made to trace the boundaries of
the serpentine and igneous rocks. This series of rocks, however,
apparently forms a belt of no great width, and stretches
south-eastei'ly from a point about a mile-and-a-half south-east of
the junction of the Wellington River with a stream v^^hich it is
proposed to name tlie Dolodrook River. This tributary enters on
the left bank of the main stream, but is unfortunately locally
known as the Right Branch of the Wellington. Mr. R. A. F.
Murray, in his report on the " Geology of South-East Gipps-
land,"^ mentions the fact that he was unable to investigate the
area immediately to the west of Mt. Wellington, but that it was
nearly certain to afford geological features of interest, as he had
heard of the occurrence of serpentine from that district, and that
the sample of chrome iron ore mentioned in Pi'ogress Report,
No. III., p. 172, came from the same place. The rocks of the
greater part of the Mt. Wellington district consist of coarse red
to chocolate coloured conglomerates, sandstones, finer shales and
a varied series of igneous rocks forming an extensive Upper
Palaeozoic belt, extending north-westerly across the Main Divide
to Mansfield.

2 E. 0. Thide:

This series has been described as Devonian, but the northern
portion is now generally accepted as Carboniferous, chiefly on
account of the revision of the fossil fish from the INIanstield
district by A. Smith Woodward, LL.D., F.R.S.-' As, however,
our knowledge of the relation of the southern part of this region
to the Mansfield series is scanty, it is thought preferable at
present to refer to the rocks of the Mt. Wellington series as
simply Upper Palaeozoic.

At the junction of the Wellington River with the Dolodrook
River, the writer obtained a series of well preserved graptolites
from highly inclined black slates. These fossils have been
handed over to Mr. T. S. Hall, M.A., who intends to work them
shortly. Mr. Hall says that these graptolites represent an
undoubted Upper Ordovician age, and, as the associated rocks
were traced for some miles along the Wellington River and also
observed in numerous sections along the Dolodrook River, an
extensive inlier of Ordovician rocks is thus shown to exist in the
Upper Palaeozoic area. The older rocks are much folded and in
places show faulting accompanied by considerable crushing and
crumpling. The Upper Palaeozoic rocks show little disturbance
and I'est unconformably on the Ordovician series with a general
prevailing dip westerly, in this locality, at a low angle.

The observations in the serpentine area were confined princi-
pally to an interesting conglomerate noted at the north-west end
of the serpentine belt.

The occurrence was reached by following up the Dolodrook
River from its junction with the Wellington for less than half-a-
mile, and then branching off to the left up a small steep tributary
cully, locally known as Black Soil Gully, This small creek
owes its name to the fact that there is a considerable accu.
mulation of black soil filling up the upper portion. The soil
has evidently been derived mainly from the decomposition
of the serpentine rocks, but also contains numerous small
flakes of indurated black slate. Along the serpentine occurrence
the black to reddish colour of the soil forms a marked contrast to
the barren nature of the Ordovician rocks on either side.

Just above the head of Black Soil Gully there is a lower
portion of a spur forming what is generally known as the Monu-

1 Brit. Assoc. Belfast, Sept., 1902.

On a Palaeozoic Serpentine CoiigloTiierate. 3

ment Gap. On both sides of the spur in this vicinity and
extending on in a south-easterly direction, the serpentine rocks
can be ti-aced. They appear to have been subjected to a consid-
erable amount of mechanical deformation, so that a well defined
foliated structure has been induced. The general trend of the
planes of foliation is from the north-west to the south-east, and
coincides generally with the strike of the Ordovician rocks.
Local variations, however, were observed and further on where
the chrome iron ore occurs the foliation was more easterly.
That the rocks have been subjected to considerable movement,
and probably torsion also, is shown by the polishing and slicken-
siding of the serpentine laminae. Smoothed and rounded
boulders were abundant on the slopes of the spur and several
were found which showed distinct grooving and striation, and
apart from this feature the shape of many of the boulders was
even more suggestive of ice action. These boulders were traced
to parallel bands in the serpentine, the general features of which
are of considerable interest.

The matrix is for the most part serpentine and contains
rounded boulders up to six inches and more in length. The
included rocks are of various kinds, those noted being, quartzite
and other indurated rocks, micaceous schist and basic igneous
rock. The boulders of the latter are for the most part either
wholly or partially serpentinised. These are the softest rocks in
the deposit and are the only ones that showed marked striations.
Between the larger boulders, a finer grit is frequently found and
the component particles of this portion of the deposit consist
chiefly of rounded grains which are now serpentine. Some of
the pebbles show distinct evidence of movement in the matrix
and consequent slickensliding due to the abrasion by the finer
grit. Mechanical deformation is well shown by one of the
serpentine boulders which shows a structure similar to that
induced by the squeezing of a partially dry ball of putty.

The grooving, and particularly the shape of many of the
boulders when examined in the hand specimens, would suggest at
once the ice origin of the material, but when the subsequent intense
pressure, movement and torsion indicated in the rocks is taken
into account the value of striation at any rate becomes less import-
ant. It is possible, however, as indicated by the shape of many

lA

of the included boulders, that glacial action may be the original
agency to which the origin of the conglomerate is to be attributed,
but both the mechanical and chemical alterations which have taken
place make the question a very difficult one to decide at present.
The age of this deposit is at present also somewhat obscure, as
no sections showing clearly the relation of the conglomerate to
the Ordovician rocks or the Upper Palaeozoic series were
observed.

Conglomerates are largely developed in the neighbouring
Carboniferous rocks, but these differ markedly in lithological
features from those of the serpentine area and, further, they
usually show little mechanical distui-bance.

The general coincidence of the foliation of the serpentine with
the prevailing strike of the Ordovician rocks, which here are
much folded and broken, points rather to the probability of the
serpentine and associated rocks being Ordovician or older.

The conglomerate described appears to present some features
quite distinct from those hitherto observed in other conglomerates
of Victoria, and some of these are perhaps quite peculiar to this
deposit. Serpentine is not a usual matrix of conglomerates ;
other instances may be known, but in the numerous descriptions
of the serpentine occurrences of Great Britain, the Alps and
elsewhere, I have been unable to find reference to a conglom-
erate of this nature.

These few remarks have been written to draw the attention of
other geologists to the peculiarities of this deposit, in the hope
that some of them may have an opportunity of examining the
occurrence more fully and thus aid in solving some of its
mysteries.

Introductory Remarks.

This paper is devoted to (1) the description of a new species
of Receptaculites from the Silurian of Victoria ; (2) — the record-
in<i' of some Victorian Middle Devonian, localities for R.
australis, Salter ; (3) — the description of certain silicilied casts
of R. australis collected by the late Mr. Richard Daintree,
C.M.G., from the Gympie or Star Beds, Mt. Wyatt, Queensland.

Tlie Devonian specimens of R. australis were originally re-
corded by Salter as from the Silurian of Australia,^ and this
reference is copied by later authors. The mistake is probably
due to the fact that at the New South Wales locality, near
Yass, both Silurian and Devonian fossils occur in close proximity,
and the two series were most likely mixed by the Rev. W. B.
Clarke, who sent the specimens to Salter. In the Molonsr Dis-
trict, New South Wales, however, R. australis occurs, as Mr. W.
S. Dun of the Sydney Department of Mines informs me, in
association with Halysites.^ There is little doubt, therefore,
that R. australis did make its appearance in Silm-ian times, but
attained its maximum abundance during the Devoniaai.

R. australis has formed the subject of a paper by R. Etheridge,
junr., and W. S. Dun, in which the structure of the specimens

from the Middle Devonian of New South Wales is very tho-
roughly discussed. The examples dealt with by those authors
were apparently too fragmentary to afford any precise data for
a complete restoration of the external shape of R. australis, for
they remark^ on p. 74 : —

" The evidence as to form is by no means conclusive, but
seems to support the view of Billings and Rauff that it was in
some degree spherical or top-shaped, as against that of Hiude,
who regards Receptaculites as a more or less basin or platter-
shaped body."

By means of an extensive series of more or less fragmentary
specimens of R. australis from Queenslaind, described in the
sequel, we are fortunately able to arrive at a fairly accurate
idea of the external form of this interesting fossil.

The occurrence of R. australis in the Middle Devonian lime-
stones of Buchan and Bindi is of especial interest, as affording
further proof of the similarity of the fossil contents of those
beds with others in New South Wales. Other fossils from
Buchan and Bindi, common to Middle Devonian areas in New
South Wales, are the various species of Favosites and Syringo-
pora spelaeaiius described by Mr. R. Etheridge, junr. Further
investigation of the fossils from the Gippsland localities will
in all probability afford additional proof of the contemporaneity
of these limestones in the two States.

DESCRIPTION OF THE VICTORIAN SPECIMENS.

Genus Receptaculites^ Defrance.

Receptaculites fepgusoni, sp. nov.

(PI. I., Figs. 1 and 3; Pi. III., Fig. 1).

Description. — This is based on a cast of the lower or outer
wall of the sponge, preserved in yello-\vish, hardened mudstone.
Nearly one-half of the sponge is represented, showing the form is
funnel-shaped, with indications of a deep central cavity. The
surrounding area is broad, depressed and strongly undulated.

The identity of this fossil with Receptaculites is clear, on
account of its depressed conical form ; as distinguished from

Ischadites, which has a sub-spherical or pyriform body, often
conoaYe at the base.

A wacx squeeze taken from this fossil cast shows the form
of the depressed summit plates, with occasional traces of the
diagonal, horizontal, spioular structure. There is also a dis-
tinct crenulation on the edges of the summit plates, similar
to the fio-ure of the Wenlock specimen of R. ? neptuni Defr.,
figured by Dr. Hinde.?-

Measurements. — The present specimen measures 20 mm. in
its longest diaimeter, and probably represents about two-thirds
of the entire expanse, or a, total diameter of about -30 mm.
The rhombic summit plates average 1.5 mm. in their greatest
width, and they do not show much variation in size.

Observations. — R. fergusoni shows certain affinities with R.
neptuni, Defranc©,- particularly in the shape of its summit
plates and their crenulated margins. It is, however, much
smaller than that species, and its conical base not so prolonged.

Occurrence. — In the yellowish hardened mudstone of Silurian
age ; Wombat Creek, a tributary of the Mitta Mitta River,
N.E. Gippsland. From the Mines Department; collected by
W. H. Ferguson, after whom the fossil is named [2317].

The above fossil is associaited with typical Silurian forms be-
longing to the genera Euomphalus, Orthis and Atry]Da.''

Observations. — In our Victorian specimens it is the median
portion of the sponge wall that is generally seen ; the weather-
ing of the fossil producing a regularly papillate surface, owing
to the exposure of the ends of the vertical rays or pillars.

8 F. Cliajrnian:

These weathered terminals frequently present a rough, resetted
appearance, due to the replaoement of the original substance
of the pillars by crystalline calcite. The centres of the pillars
often contain a residual crystal of calcite towards which the
outer and adjacent ones converge, which seems to point to the
former existence of a central canal. The oalcite crystals sur-
rounding the central area in our specimens sometimes exhibit
in transverse section under the microscope a radial grouping
of brush-like clusters of fine dark lines, possibly indicative of a
previous organic structure as was pointed out by von Giimbel.^

Beekite, which was recorded by Etheridge and Dun as oc-
curring in the specimens from New South Wales, has not yet
been noticed in our Victorian specimens.

A specimen from Buchan, in grey limestone, shows the rarely
occuiring actual form of the summit plates of the lower or
outer surface of the body-wall of the sponge. On the opposite,
weathered face of the same specimen the condition of the
pillars shows that they were axially perforated by a slender
canal.

The microscopical exaanination of a number of thin slices of
Receptaculites in Middle Devonian limestone, both from Vic-
toria and New South Wales, has revealed isolated and frag-
mentary horizontal spicules apparently detached from the ex-
ternal layers of the sponge, and distributed through the in-
filling material or mud forming the black limestone (Plate IV.,
Figs. 2, 3). These spicules resemble the rest of the sponge-
remains in the same beds in being now in the form of calcite.
Hinde has remarked- with regard to the examples of Recep-
taculites found in the Ttenton Limestone, that, whilst the axial
canals are distinctly shoAvn in the siliceous portions of speci-
mens, those parts replaced by calcite have the canals entirely
obliterated. One of our specimens, however, which has been
replaced by crystalline calcite, shows unmistakable traces of
the central canal (Plate IV., Fig. 2). As regards the identity
of the spioular body shown on Plate IV., Fig. 3, it may be
noted that the space between the two circular prominences

exactly corresponds with the distance between the extremities
of the vertical pillars of the Devonian examples.

Occurrence. — The Victorian specimens of R. australis came
from two localities, Buchaii and Bindi, both from the Middle
Devonian. The examples from Buchan occur alike in the grey,
rather crystalline limestone, and in the black limestone. The
specimen in black limestone from Buchan was presented to the
Muesum by Mr. G. Sweet, F.G.S. That from the grey lime-
stones was collected by James Stirling, F.G.S. , and received
from the Mines Department, Melbourne.

The Bindi specimen (Mines Dept., 4113) is in a bluish-grey
limestone, weathering brown, and apparently containing a fairly
large amount of bituminous matter (anthraconite or stinkstein).
This specimen is not mentioned in the general report on the
collection by Prof. McCoy (See Progress Report, No. 4, 1877,
p. 158).

NOTE ON SOME QUEENSLAND SPECIMENS OF
R. AUSTRALIS.

In their " Geology and Palaeontology of Queensland," Messrs.
R. Etheridge, junr., and R. L. Jack refer to specimens of a
Receptaculites collected by R. Daintree from Mt. Wyatt, but
which were afterwards lost sight of. In a note in the above-
mentioned work, Dr. R. L. Jack ^\Tites as follows: ^"The late
Mr. Daintree observed, at Mount Wyatt diggings, certain slates
and shales containing Chonetes sarcinulata, an Orthis allied to
0. rustica, Receptaculites and Leptaena, as determined by Sir
F. McCoy. These rocks were unconformaMy overlaid by beds,
probably of the " Star " series, containing Lepidodeudron. On
the strength of the fossils, the sti'ata first alluded to were
assumed to be of Upper Silurian age. The assumption was
based on a single, distinctly specifically determined Brachiopod,
Chonetes sarcinulata, now known to range upward into Devonian
times, an Orthis, which might be allied to an Upper Silurian
species, without being itself of that age^ — the genus ranging all
through the Silurian, Devonian and Carboniferous — a Recep-

taculites [every effort has been made, both in London and
Brisbane, to trace this fossil, but without success — footnote by
R.E., Jun.] and a Leptaena (Silurian and Devonian) not speci-
fically determined. I have not been able to identify the
locality referred to by Mr. Daintree, but, as I observed both
the Star Beds and the Gympie Beds in the neighbourhood, I
think it probable that the Chonetes, etc., beds belong to the
latter."

The specimens to which the above reference is made I have
lately found amongst the collections of fossils at the National
Museum. They were sent by Mi". Daintree to Prof. McCoy on
the 7th of September, 1866 (date on box label). The
specimens consist of negative replacements of the sponge, in
chalcedonic silica, and they ogTee in their general characters
with the better known examples of R. australis from New South
Wales. Whether these sponge-bearing beds of Mt. Wyatt belong
to the Gympie or to the Star Beds, they, at all events, show an
extension of the geological range of this species into beds of
Carboniferous age.^

Much has already been written on the structure of this
sponge, but I venture to add these notes on the Queensland
fossils on account of the excellent condition of the casts of the
inner and outer layers of the organism. Photographs of the
more important examples are included in this paper in order
that a comparison of its external features can be made Avith
the excellent figures of the New South Wales Keceptaculites
given by Etheridge and Dun.

Condition of the Fossils. — The matrix of the bed yielding the
Receptaculites is a chalcedonic chert strongly permeated with
jDcroxide of iron. In every case the structure shown by the
fossil is a negative one ; the outer spicular layer and the
rhombic summit plates, however, are so faithfully preserved

1 A few impressions of other fossils occur in the matrix with the Receptaculites. These
are referable to Leptaena analoga, Phillips, sp., and the species of Fenestella figfured by de
Koniiick under the name of F. uiultiporata, McCoy (Descr. Pal. Foss. N.S. Wales, Transl.
1898, p. 134, pi. viii., f. 1, la [non 4]). The latter differ from McCoy's Irish specimens, as
Mr. Etheridge, Jun., has already pointed out, in the small size and the delicate habit of
the zoarium. It is also more divergent in its method of branching. In view of these
differential characters, I would propose the specific name Konincki for the Australian
specimens. The above-named fossils add no further data for settling the precise horizon
of these sponge-bearing beds, as they are found alilie in the Star and Gympie series.

Victorian Fofisils, Pt. V. 1 1

that a. wax squeeze g:ives a very detailed impression of the
orisfinal structure.

When the fossils are sliced vertically, that is, through the
outer and inner layers of the Avail, and examined microscopically,
it is seen that the internal portion with the vertical series of
pillars has been absorbed or dissolved during silicification, and,
the intervening space being almost entirely filled up by silica,
only the bases of the vertical pillars ar© just discernible in cer-
tain places on the cut surface. The internal structure is chiefly
visible here and there merely as a ferruginous streak, with
patches of partially destroyed spicular structure. In one speci-
men the form of the spicular mesh has been preserved in iron
oxide, which has evidently been the replacing material of the
original sponge-structure.

In the case of the Queensland specimens, a, siliceous mould
has been formed over a pseudomorph, in peroxide of iron, of
the spicular layers ; whilst in the New South Wales examples
the siliceous (beekite) replacement is a, positive one, formed on
a calcitic base, which latter may have been a replacement of
an original siliceous structure.

Form and Dimensions of the Sponge. — R. australis seems to
have been typically platter-shaped, widely expanded, with a
somewhat thick, slightly upturned rim. The central area waa
holloAved into a short funnel-shaped cavity, and the base, ex-
teriorly, was slightly prolonged and obtusely rounded. There
appears to be no evidence amongst our specimens for the shape
suggested by Etheridge and Dun, that is, spherical or top-
shaped ; the peculiar appearance of the specimen which those
authors figure. J^^ in which the tAvo AA'alls closely approximate, may
possibly be due to distortion or pressure prior to fossilisation.

By the aid of a few more than usually complete examples
the general external aspect of this species of Receptaculites may
be fairly accurately restored (Plate IV., Fig. 7), and its
general dimensions ascertained. A more or less flat expanse
of about one-half the disc in one particular specimen gives a
breadth of 8 cm., and from this and other similarly derived
data AA'e may conclude that the sponge often exceeded 15 cm.

in diameter.^ In its vertical height, from the base of the
stalk to the level of the rim, this sponge probably measured
above 5 cm.

iStruoture of the Median Layer. — What little remains of the
vertical pillars resembles the same structure seen in the
organism preserved in the limestone matrix, and is shown by
the impressions of the extremities of the pillars taken off the
fossils by wax squeezes. The pillars are hollow and constricted
near the junction wdth the outer sjMcular layers.

Structure of the Upper and Lower Layers of the Body Wall. —
The superficial aspect of the (.t)ueensland specimens varies ac-
cording to the particular part of the external layer exposed.
Both the summit plates and the underlying spicules in contact
with them are clearly seen, and there seems evidence of more
than one spicule layer underlying the rhombic plates of the
inner or upper surface. So far as can be seen in these speci-
mens, the vertical pillars, constricted near their summits on the
inner side of the body wall (endorhin), suddenly expand and give
rise to a four-rayed spicular body similar to that shown in the
structural diagram of Receptaculites by Billings''* (Plate IV.,
Fig. 5).

As previously stated, there is often an intermediate spicule
layer between the expanded ends of the pillars and the outer
layer of summit plates with their spicular mesh. In this inter-
mediate layer there is ai parallel series of fusiform spicules, one
end of each spicule being capitate and giving rise to a slender
axis turning off at an angle between 90 deg. and 100 deg., and
w^hich immediately passes beneath the fusiform spioule-layer.
Some approach to this kind of structure is seen in the spicular
mesh of Sphaerospongia, an allied genus with hexagonal summit
plates, from the Devonian of Devonshire, Germany and Russia."

The external layer is less often seen in our specimens, but
when recognisable it shows the sub-rectangular character of the
summit plates of the "ectorhin."

1 The largest specimens figured by Etheridge and Dun from New South Wales also con-
ifinn this measurement.

Summary.

1. As a genus, Receptaculites ranges from the Silurian to
the Carboniferous in Australia,. The species R. axistralis is
probably coeval with the genus.

2. The evidence here brought forward with regard to R.
australis shows —

(a) The form of the sponge to be sub-discoidal or platter-
shaped, with a central funnel-shaped cavity.

(b) Tlie horizontal spicule-rays are apparently derived from,
or fused to, the extremities of the vertical rays, at least in
the ' endorhin,' and partially so in the ' ectorhin.'

(c) The structure of the horizontal spicular layer shows cer-
tain morphological resemblances to that of Sphaerospongia.

(d) The original structure of the Receptaculites from the
Mount Wyatt beds, in common with those from Belgium,
Silesia and Canada (Hinde) has been pseudomorphosed by
peroxide of iron, nearly all of which replacement, in the case
of the Australian specimens, has since disappeared, the fossil
being represented by a negative cast in silica.

(e) The evidence afforded by the pseudomorphosis of the
s^Donge by peroxide of iron, and its present siliceous epimorphic
condition, seems to lend strong support to the idea of an
oriainal siliceous structure.

A Note on the Identity of Spirifer laevicosta, McCoy
(//o/i Valenciennes), with S. yassensis, de Koninck.

The earliest record of Spirifer laevicosta as a Victorian fossil
was given by Seh\yn in 1866.^ In the following year Prof.
McCoy wrote- regarding the limestone fossils of Buohan, Gipps-
land, that there was an " abundance of the Spirifera^ laevicostata,
perfectly identical with specimens from the European Devonian
Limestone of the Eifel."

The occm-rence of this spirifer was subsequently mentioned
in two Progress Reports and an Exhibition Essay by McCoy,
and it was finally figured and described in the Prodromus of the
Palaeontology of Victoria.'^

In view of the special detailed work on the classification of
the brachiopoda published since 1876, giving a better idea of
the limitation of specific forms, the publication of these notes
may now be opportune.

The Australian species, which has until now been referred
to as S. laevicosta (or laevicostata), shows marked specific dif-
ferences from the S. laevicosta of Europe (Devonshire and the
Eifel). It is, however, somewhat allied to the latter species
as a Middle Devonian type of spirifer, but is not a, typical

ostiolate form (with non-plicate median fold and sinus), since the
median fold, in the larger and fully-developed specimens, carries
a longitudinal gi'oove.

Points of difference between the European S. laevicosta. Val.
and the Victorian S. yassensis, de Kon^: —

The specimen which McCoy selected for figuring in the De-
cades is unusually large,'^ and at a. first glance, one acquainted
with the European species might see a general resemblance
between the two forms.

The Victorian spirifer, however, is sub-ovate in outline, as in
the New South Wales specimens, rather than sub-quadrate, as in
the European form. The shell is less turgid, the compression also
affecting the median fold, which is not so inflated as that of S.
laevicosta; there is also a longitudinal groove usually present,
especially in the larger Victorian specimens, which is not seen in
S. laevicosta. This larger character reminds one of a similar
feature in the Devonian S. bifidus, Roemer^ and the Silurian S.
bijugosus, McCoy.*, The median sinus is narrower and deeper
in the central area, and not so acutely V-shaped on the posterior
margin of the shell. The shoulders on either side of the beak are
steeper and more concave.

The plications are of the same average number in both cases,
and show a viiriation between 11 and 14 counted on either side
of the median fold.

The width of the Victorian S. yassensis ranges from 13 to
50 nun.

Spirifer yassensis was first named in MS. by the^ Rev. W. B.
Clarke;^ and it was afterwards described under the same name
by de Konick*^ from specimens obtained from the Devonian
limestones of Yass. As I have previously remarked, the New

1 In this I have had the advantage of comparing a long series of the European S. laevi-
costa from the Eifel, in the Nat. Mus. Collection.

2 Mr. A. J. Shearsb}', of Yass, informs me that he has met with equally large specimen,
in the Devonian of Yass, although the fossil is commonly like that figured by de Konick,
as regards size. There is also a larger specimen than that figured by McCoy in the collec-
tion of the National Museum, from Buchan, presented by C. W. Nicholson (See pi. v.,
fig. 2, of this paper).

Description of Spirifer howitti, sp. nov. (PI. V., Figs. 4-6).

Shell moderately well-inflated, compressed at the cardinal ex-
tremities ; sub-quadrate to sub-elliptical, the hinge-line varying
in proportion according to length of shell. The chief distinc-
tive characters are the strong plications, 6 to 8 on either side
of the median fold ; median fold with 2 strong plications, the
sinus with two weaker ones, sometimes nearly obsolete ; area
large ; ventral beak much elevated, pointed and only slightly in-
curved ; delthyrium large ; dental lamellae well-developed ;
unweathered specimens show conspicuous, concentric lamellae
on the shell surface.

This species falls into the section of the Lamellosi, having
a lamellated shell-surface. It apparently belongs to the S.
mucronatiis type of shell, so far as external characters go, de-
scribed by Conrad from the Hamilton Group (Middle Devonian)
of New York.

S. howitti somewhat resembles in outline S. pittmani, lately
described by Mr. W. S. Dun from the Devonian of County
Cunningham, New South Wales.-^ That species, however, is one
of the ostiolate spirifers, and, further, is more numerously
plicated.

A Change in Nomenclature.

In Part II. of New or Little-known Victorian Fossils (this
journal, vol. xvi., n.s. pt. 1, 1903, p. 65) the name latior was
proposed for a species of Lingula. This name was previously
given by McCoy to a Carboniferous species (Brit. Pal. Foss.,
1855, p. 475, pi. iii., fig. 33), and therefore the above pre-occupied
name must lapse. The new name proposed for this fossil is
L. yarraensis.

[Read 13th July, 1905].

The small collection of graptolites here dealt with was found
by Mr. E, 0. Thiele at the junction of the riglit niul left
branches of the Wellington River, about six miles west of Mount
Wellington. The locality was described briefly by him in a
paper on Lake Karng, recently read before the Field Natural-
ists' Club of Victoria,^ and also in a paper in the present
volume.- The country to the south-west and west of Mount
Wellington is coloured Silurian [Upper Silurian] on the last
issued map of the State, but the fossils here dealt with are of
Upper Ordovioian age. Graptolites of about the same horizon
have been known for some years to occur at Mount Matlock,
35 miles to the north-west, and others have recently been found
at the Thomson-Jordan junction, 20 miles Avest. The area, then,
of Ordovician is apparently considerable, though it is all
mapped as Silurian. The presence of Monograptus, however,
in other beds near the Thomson-Jordan junction show that
Silurian [Upper Silurian] rocks are present, so that McCoy's
reference of certain beds at Mount Matlock to Silurian [Upper
Silurian] on what appeared slender evidence may be quite cor-
rect.^ Mr. Thiele's papers, above referred to, show that the
Ordovician transgresses further east into the Upper Devonian
(? Carboniferous) area shown on the map. There is evidently
room for a good deal of careful mapping in this rugged and

almost inaccessible district, and results of interest may be ex-
pected, especially as the presence of Heathcotian is asserted.

The recent publication by the Palaeontologioal Society of the
fourth part of Miss Elies' and Miss Wood's Monograph of
British Graptolites, which deals with the Dicranograptidae, ren-
ders it possible at last for useful comparisons of our Australian
species to be made with those of Europe. The small size and
complicated form of the thecae of this group, together with their
frequent imperfect condition of preservation, owing to their
•delicate structure, and their habit of being embedded at all
angles in the bedding plane, make their elucidation one of con-
siderable difficulty. The older descriptions and figures Avere
inadequate, but the revision of the authors mentioned makes
easy much that was formerly unintelligible.

The specimens which Mr. Thiele has been kind enough to
allow me to examine I have identified as follows: —

Diplograptiis thielei, ii. sp.
Climacograptus wellingtonensis, n. sp.
CI. bicornis, J. Hall. .
Cryptograptus tricornis, Carruthers.
Lasiograptus, sp.

Dicellograptus elegans, Carruthers.
Dicranograptiis nicholsoui, Hopkinson.
Dicr. hians, n. sp.

These are clearly of Upper Ordovician age. The descriptions
of the previously-naaned species have been drawn up from
specimens in the present collection, no character being dealt
with which cannot be seen in them.

Diplogpaptus thielei, n. sp. (PI. VI., Fig. 1).

Hydrosome rather broad, the edges gradually diverging from
the sicular end. At about 8 or 10 mm. from the sicula, they
become parallel, and so continue to the truncate extremity.
Sioula nearly one mm. broad at its apertiu-e and one and a half
mm. long. Thecae about 4-^- times as long as broad, overlapping
§ their length. Outer wall of the earlier thecae gently sig-
moidally cuiwed. In the later ones it is straight. The earlier
thecae have spines about 0.5 mm. long ; these decrease in size,
and ultimately vanish towards the anti-sicular end.

22 Hall : Victorian Graptolites,

Length of hydrosome, 15 mm. ; breadth, 3 mm. ; thecae, 13
in 1 cm., inclined at 40 deg.; apertural mai-gin normal to length
of thecae. Virgnla distinct, free for 1.5 mm. Virgella lax, 1 or
2 mm. long. Apertural spines of earliest thecae 0.5 mm. An
additional spine on the sicular aperture.

This species has a close resemblance to D. camei, mihi,
from New South Wales, but the hydrosome of the latter increases
in width continuously. The presence of a free virgula in D.
thielei is an additional feature of diagnostic value.

Climacograptus wellingtonensis, n. sp.
(PI. VI., Figs. 2, 3).

Hydrosome regularly tapering to an acute point. Length,
8-10 mm. ; breadth, 0.8 to 1.0 mm. Large specimens may reach
a length of 45 mm. and a width of 2 mm., not increasing in
width for the last couple of centimeters. Virgula distinct,
fi'ee for about 1 mm. In young specimens the free virgula
may be longer. Virgella as long as the hydrosome. Thecae,
13 in. 10 mm.

The relative lengths of the free virgula and virgella are held
to be of prime importance in distinguishing the species of
this group, and the species so distinguished are stated by Lap-
worth to have different ranges in time. There are at the same
time slight differences in the form of the hydrosomes. The
present species approaches the silurian species C. rectangularis
McCoy, more closely than any other.

Climacograptus bicornis, J. Hall.

A single well-preserved example of this species is present,
and is of normal form.

Cryptograptus tricornis, Canuthers. (PI. VI., Fig. 4).

Hydrosome of great tenuity, parallel sided, reaching' a length
of about 15 mm. and from 1 to 1.5 mm. in breadth. The
thecae cannot be distinctly made out nor counted in any of
the specimens, but their apertures are distinctly shown by a
double series of circular marks, one on each side of the virgula.

which is fairly distinct. The virgnla is free for about 6 mm.
The three spines from which the species takes its name are well
marked ; in fact, they and the virpfula are all that remain of
many specimens. Carruthers pointed out the great variation in
length in the Scotch examples, and the same curious mixture of
different growth stages is found with us. None of the specimens
before me show much detail. They are almost too nebulous to
draw, and Lapworth says that it was only after the accumula-
tion of much material that he was able to determine the charac-
ters which induced him to found the subgenus.^

Lasiograptus, sp.

A small fragment 2.5 mm. long apparently belongs to this
genus. Four or five thecae are present on each side. The
lateral appendages are long and slender, and are connected by
a single -thread along their distal ends. It occurs on the same
slab as about 30 examples of Cryptograptus tricomis and a
couple of Climacograptus wellingtonensis.

Dicellograptus elegans, Carruthers. (PI. VI., Fig. 5).

Branches about 6 mm. long ; at first almost parallel, then
bending outwards and finally inwards, the shape of the poly-
pary resembling a pair of engineer's callipers. Sicula short
and broad, there being no evidence of a virgula or ■sdrgella in
the only two examples before me. Lateral spines short, but
distinct. Thecae apparently about 15 in. 1 cm., but not well
enough preserved for accurate counting ; their outer walls
curved ; the apertures turned laterally in deep excavations.

Miss EUes and Miss Wood^ say that the virgella is always
well developed. Its apparent absence in the specimen figured
may well be due to imperfect preservation. The thecae in the
British specimens are said to number from 8 to 10 in. 1 cm.
My estimate of 15 is very doubtful, as only two or three can
be seen. The extreme broadening of the distal ends of the bran-
ches shown in my figure is due to the blurring produced by
weathering in the orisfinals.

24 Hall : Victorian Graptolites.

Dicranograptus nicholsoni, Hopkinson.
(PI. VI., Fig. 7).

Biserial part 6 mm. long, with 6 or 7 thecae on each side ;
increasing in breadth from 0.7 mm. at the proximal end to
1.5 mm. at the point of bifurcation. Uniserial branches
straight ; 7 cm. long (broken) ; width 1 mm. ; axillary' angle, 40
deg. Thecae 10 in. 1 cm., strongly curved, with laterally facing
apertures opening into deep excavations which indent the
branch for about a third of its width. Spines on the first two
or three thecae of the uniserial portion.

The only difference noticeable from the species as described
by Miss EUes and Miss Wood is that in the British examples
the uniserial portion is of even width throughout, while in ours
there Is an increase. This is probably not of sufficient import-
ance for a specific difference, and moreover I have but a single
specimen.

Dicpanograptus hians, n. sp. (PI. YL, Fig. 6).

Biserial portion about 3 mm. in length and 1 mm. broad,
with about three thecae on each side. Axillary angle. 90 deg.,
the uniserial branches slightly cundng towards one another,
their length being about 6 cm. and breadth 1 mm. Thecae
with slightly curved ventral margins and horizontal apertures ;
12 in. 1 cm. The thecae of the uniserial portion are spined,
and there is a distinct virgella.

The species belongs to group 2 of JNIiss Elles' and Miss
Wood's subdivision of the genus, but is quite unlike either of
the contained species. The wide angle of divergence of the
branches suggests the specific name.

Art. v. — The Mineralogical Characters of Victorian
Auriferous Occurrences.

By T. S. hart, M.A., F.G.S.

Lecturer on Geology and Mining, Schoul of Mines, Ballarat.
[Read 13th July, 1905].

The contributions of various authors to the Mineralogy of
Victoria have included records of a large number of minerals
from the quartz I'eefs and other auriferous matrices (see especially
references 1 to 4 below). In some cases the associations in which
the minerals occur are descriVjed, and their bearing on the gold-
contents noticed. It was early seen that certain minerals were
present on nearly all the Victorian goldfields. This prevalence
of the one mineralogical type, even in cases where structural
features were widely different, has perhaps been one cause of the
scantiness of the attention given to the mineralogical characters
of the gold occurrences.

In these notes a classification is presented of the mineral
associations which are found in our known auriferous matrices
and allied mineral deposits. Some occurrences are included
which are not proved to be aurifeious or whose gold contents are
even known to be unimportant, but which occur under conditions
analogous to some auriferous lodes or approach them in their
characters.

For the basis of the classification I use the predominant
minerals among the sulphides, etc., of the ore as unaltered by
surface agencies. A bare list of minerals present in any reef or
in any field will not adequately represent the character of the
ore, as is exemplified by Groups 1 and 2 below. The number of
minerals found in a reef is sometimes considerably increased by
the minerals noticed in some peculiarly complex patch. Minerals
placed below as two distinct groups may be found together in
the one reef, though often occurring independently of one another,
this is especially the case when the groups ordinarily occur under

26 T. S. Hart : Tlie M Ineralog leal Characters

similar conditions. It may also happen that what appears to be
one reef may consist of parts of quite different mineralogical
types.

The following mineral associations may be recognized, being
cliaracterized by the presence or prominence of the minerals
mentioned in each case.

1. The ordinary type. — Pyrite or arsenopyrite or both,
prominent among the metallic compounds; with sphalerite
and galena commonly present in small quantities.

2. Galena and sphalerite prominent with pyrite.

3. Stibnite.

4. Chalcopyrite.

5. Siderite and chalcopyrite.

6. Pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite.

7. Molybdenite usually with pyrite.

8. Bismuth minerals.

9. Wolfram.

10. Cinnabar and mercury.

1. The association of minerals in this type, as ordinarily
occurring, may be more fully stated as quartz, albite, dolomite,
pyrite, arsenopyrite, galena, gold. Carbonaceous matter is also
frequently present, sometimes as graphite.

The albite and dolomite are quite subordinate to the quartz in
quantity. The sphalerite and galena, though in much less
quantity than the iron rainerials, and less generally distributed
in the reef, are often persistently present in the richer portions.
Of tiie two iron compounds one or other may be more prominent,
or both equally so. The proportion of the metallic minei'als in
the reef varies greatly. There are of course many reefs of this
type from which a part only of the series is recorded.

Dolomite and albite often escape notice in the bad light in the
mine, but are easily recognised in most cases by their cleavages.
Albite is often altered to kaolin to a considerable depth from the
surface, and pholerite also occurs in the cavities of the quartz.
Dolomite is often evident on the old material on the mullock
heaps, as it contains a little iron carbonate which causes it to-
turn brovvn on exposure. In the Ballarat mines it occurs in four
forms, impure grey dolomite in the country rock agreeing with

of Victorian Auriferous Occurrences. 27

the bedding planes or nearly so ; brownish granular masses ;
veins in the quai-tz and country rock and patches in the quartz,
these show district cleavage ; and crystals in the cavities of the
quartz. Albite and dolomite are not by any means confined to
Ballarat l)Ub are widely distributed in occurrences of this type.
Albite is less often recorded but this is easily accounted for by
its frequent alteration and its less easy recognition.

Carbon occurs in the carbonaceous slates of the country rock,
on the walls of the reefs which not infrequently follow the course
of these carbonaceous slates, and as the laminations or fine
sub-parallel seams in the quartz. In some cases these lamina-
tions consist in part of other minerals. Highly lustrous graphite
appears to be found chiefly on the planes of movement and in
rocks which have undergone more than the usual amount of
alteration, as at Stawell and at Piggoreet.

Order of Crystallization. — Cavities containing quartz crystals
are not uncommon, and in these we find the quartz often invested
by dolomite and pyrite crystals implanted on the dolomite.
These crystals are often in pyritohedral forms, whereas in the
reefs distinct crystals are not common, and in the country rock
they are most commonly cubes. Elsewhere (Dee River, Queens"
land) we have evidence of gold-nuggets moulded on quartz
crystals (7), but the large masses of gold found on the indicator
veins are commonly mixed with the vein quartz.

We find, however, evidence of dolomite preceding quartz as
well as following it, and pyrite is found enclosed both in quartz
and in dolomite.

Cry.stals of arsenopyrite are found in the country rock at Mt.
Pleasant, Ballarat, invested by a thin layer of quartz.

Commonly no growth lines in the quartz are detected nor any
crustified character in the reefs. The laminations of the reefs
often noticed may be referred to the disposition of the quartz
along a series of sub-parallel cracks in the original rock, or in a
fault-rock, and the formation of mullocky reefs may be ascribed
similarly to deposition on numerous cracks traversing shattered
rocks.

We may regard as original the carbonaceous matter of the
laminations and probably the grey gi-anular dolomite bands such

28 T. S. Hart : The Miner cdogical Characters

as occur at Ballarat East. The pyrite and arsenopyrite of the
country rock and the minerals of the reefs may be regarded in
the present state of our knowledge as practically contemporaneous.
It must, however, be remembered that the quartz reefs of the one
field are in some cases of appreciably different ages, as indicated
by their relations to one another and to faults. The order of
succession in the cavities must not be given too much weight in
determining the general process of growth of the reef.

The masses of gold on the indicators should also X'eceive
separate investigation from the ordinary reef. To whatever
extent the indicator gold may be secondary (whether that term
is used with reference to the time of its formation or to its being
regarded as subordinate to a general theory of vein formation),
it cannot be referred to any process of surface weathering, for
these ricli patches are associated with easily decomposable
minerals, and their characters are continuing unchanged in the
deepest levels at Ballarat East.

The mode of association with other minerals and with the
quartz also renders impossible any formation by a process of
filtration such as recently suggested by one writer (8). Nor can
they be due to obstruction to the motion of solutions in view of
the nature of the general resistance to the motion of solutions
through the fractures and the rocks themselves, for they are in
many cases in places where the movement would be easier than
usual.

Whatever may have been the sources and the general causes of
the deposition of the minerals of the reefs, there is strong evidence
that the position of the richer gold contents has been determined
by the presence of carbonaceous matter, or at least of certain
favourable slates, which are frequently carbonaceous. We find
the saddle reefs of Bendigo following the course of carbonaceous
beds on which there has been slipping (15). The veins of Balla-
rat East are often rich in crossing thin carbonaceous beds, and
the so-called main reefs of the same field are richest in certain
favourable slates. In many localities veins are found along the
course of the carbonaceous slates, and richest in their laminated
parts. The easiest explanation of the indicator masses seems to
be to regard them simply as the extreme case of this more

widespread feature where tlie favoural)]e bed is most resti'icted,
and the access of the solutions, by a crack nearly at right angles
to the indicator, is at the same time facilitated and most defini-
tely localised. Slipping on the carbonaceous bed might then
conti-ibute by rendering more easy the percolation of solutions
along the beds, providing thus a more ready supply of the active
ingredient of these impermeable beds.

Extensions and moditications of the first type. At places in a
reef there sometimes appear small quantities of additional
minerals. Thus from the Albion Reef, 8teiglitz, Ulrich i-ecords
(2) stibnite, tetrahedrite, and bournonite, with pyrite, sphalerite,
gold and pholerite in the hollows of the quartz. The tetrahedrite
contains arsenic, iron and zinc. From the Band and Albion
Mine, Ballarat, Ki'ause records (5) calcite, dolomite, siderite
with pyrite, chalcopyrite and tetrahedrite. Boulangerite and
bournonite have also been recorded from Ballarat, but all these
are rare.

Chalcopyrite occurs at a nuiuber of localities, according to Mr.
R. H. Walcott, more especially Eastern Victorian (4). Mr. H.
S. Whitelaw (9) describes the best reefs at Berringa as containing
galena and chalcopyrite. It appears to be much commoner there
than at Ballarat. Mr. O. A. L. Whitelaw (16), states that the
minerals accompanying the lodes at Wood's Point are mainly
pyrite and galena, with smaller quantities of sphalerite, copper
carbonates and jamesonite. Mr. D. Clark (6) states that in the
Cassilis ore, where the sulphides form from 10 to 60 per cent, of
the ore, arsenopyrite is most prominent with pyrite, sphalerite,
galena, chalcopyrite and small quantities of stibnite and bismu-
thinite. Magnesium and aluminium silicates are present in this
ore. At the Maude and Homeward Bound Mine, Mount Wills,
pyrite and arsenopyrite are accompanied by a little stibnite and
a silver sulphantimonite.

The Bethanga ore contains the ordinary minerals of the tii'st
type of occurrence with the addition of those mentioned below as
group 6, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite, in quantities exceeding the
sphalerite and galena (6). The Maldon field gives many
examples of the addition of the same two minerals, according to
the report of Mr. R. A. Moon (10), with the addition of a variety

30 T. S. Hart: The Mineralogical Cltaracter

of other minerals, more especially those usually found near gran-
itic rocks. Native antimony, stibnite and jamesonite are
recorded from this field. A number of the rarer minerals here
are found in veins separate from those of the ordinary type as
noticed below. A remarkable variation is found near the great
vugh of the Eaglehawk Reef, Maldon, the quartz being replaced
by cacholong or common opal, in which were garnet, amphibole,
ferrocalcite, arsenopyrite, galena and sphalerite.

Indication of gold by the minerals of the reef. — The associa-
tion of richer portions of the reefs with carbonaceous material
has already been noticed. With regard to the minerals of the
reef themselves, it is often difficult to get exact information as to
their bearing on the gold contents. It remains an open question
in many cases whether the greater richness in gold is connected
with the appearance of certain definite minerals or with the
general increasing complexity of the mixture. An increase in
the amount of the sulphides is usually accompanied by increased
gold contents.

The appearance of sphalerite or galena in a reef of this type is
always regarded as an indication of probably better grade stone.
Opinions differ, however, as to which of these is the better, but
the balance is in favour of the sphalerite. I have only once
heard of an instance in which this mineral was not regarded
favourably, and, in this case, the information was not very
reliable or complete. It should be remembered that this mineral,
being the lightest of the metallic minerals in this type of ore, is
less readily saved by the ordinary processes, and its pale and
lustreless appearance when crushed renders its loss less easily
detected. At Maldon, according to the report already quoted
(10), arsenopyrite, sphalerite, and stibnite are regarded as the
most favourable to good gold. Pyrrhotite according to the
same authority is good in small quantity, but in larger quantity
usually bad. Ulrich (1) quotes assays from the wall of the
Tiverton Reef, Maldon, as giving from material containing
pyrrhotite, 2 to 10 oz. gold per ton.

Arsenopyrite seems to be usually more favourable than pyrite.
A sample of slate from Ballarat East, without quartz, but with
■crystals of arsenopyrite, gave 3 oz. to the ton, and a roughly con-

of Victorian Auriferous Occurreoices. 31

centrated sample of ai'senopyrite from it, 20oz. to the ton. The
gold, if not in the arsenopyrite, was at least associated with it.

Mr. H. S. Whitelaw regards chalcopyrite and galena as con-
stantly present in good gold-bearing stone at Berringa (9).

The alteration by surface waters of the minerals of these reefs
gives rise to marcasite (which, however, is easily decomposed),
melanterite from marcasite, copiapite ; limonite ; orpinient and
realgar very rarely ; scotodite probably much more often than
I'ecorded, pharmacosiderite, kaolin, pholerite, epsomite, and other
minerals.

2. At St. Arnaud, Percydale, and other localities in the
Pyrenees there is a great prominence of galena and sphalerite.
Accompanying this there is, as might be expected, a larger pro-
portion of silver in the output of the mines. Some parts of the
ore yield concentrates which have been smelted for lead. The
difference from the preceding type is the great quantity of these
minerals which in the ordinary association of minerals are quite
subordinate. In some samples of these ores the proportion of
quartz also is comparatively small. The general result of assays
at Percydale is said to have been that a large amount of galena
tended to give high silver contents, and a large amount of sphal-
erite good gold contents in the ore. An assay at the Ballarat
School of Mines of a sample from St. Arnaud containing galena,
sphalerite, pyrite and arsenopyrite, with little quartz, gave :
silver 19oz. 12dwt., gold 2oz. 19dwt. llgr. per ton. From the
Glendhu Reef, Landsborough, an assay of pyrite is quoted by
Ulrich (1) as giving: silver 42oz. 9dwt. 14gr., gold loz. 4d\vt.
llgr. The material is quoted as an example of pyrite rich in
silver. It is not unlikely that it was originally associated with
galena, and, if so, may be regarded as analogous to an instance
from the Pinnacles, Barrier Ranges, given by Jaquet (11), where
a mixture of galena and pyrrhotite had 75 per cent, of its silver
in the pyrrhotite, though that mineral without galena was poor
or bai'ren.

The galena at Buchan, East Gippsland, where it is found
nearly free from sphalerite, seems to contain very little gold. A
sample of concentrates from the Buchan Proprietary Mine gave
55 per cent, lead, silver 21oz., gold 3dwt. per ton (12). A quartz

32 T. S. Hart : TJie Mineralogical Characters

veinstone from Gelantipy quoted in the same report gave, in dif-
ferent samples, up to 71 oz. of silver, but under 4dwt. of gold per
ton in the highest assay.

At St. Arnaud bournonite occurs, and in the surface stone
anglesite, cerussite, pyromorphite, mimetite, embolite and native
copper.

3. Auriferous antimony ores. — Stibnite is only found in small
quantities in the ordinary quartz reef, as in the instances already
quoted. There are, however, a series of lodes in which it is the
leading metallic constituent. These are mainly in the Silurian
area of Central Victoria, as at Costerfield and Ringwood, but they
are also found in Ordovician rocks, as at Sutton Grange, at
Dunolly, and between Coimaidai and Gisborne. In any question
of their origin, then, no importance could be attached to the
association with Silurian rocks. Krause mentions that the
Costerfield ore has given assays as high as 9oz. gold and 80oz.
silver per ton (5).

The other minerals found with the stibnite are not many nor
abundant. Bournonite, cuproplurabite, and chalcostibite are
noticed as rare at Costerfield (1). The few occurrences of schee-
lite in Victoria are not in association with the antimonial ores,
though this mineral is found with them at Hillgrove, N.S.W.

Cervantite is the common alteration product of these ores, but
kermesite and senarmontite are found in small quantity at a few
places, and valentinite soniewhat moi"e frequently.

4. Chalcopyrite. — This mineral again is in small quantity in
the ordinary type, though it frequently appears with increasing
complexity. At the Thompson River Copper Mine it occurs
with other copper minerals. A series of assays from this mine
(13) showed only a trace of gold, and silver only as high as 6oz.
per ton. It is noteworthy that these ores contain up to 3| per
cent, nickel.

While this ore must then be regarded, so far as tliese assays go,
as not a gold producer, it will be seen by examples already quoted
that the addition of chalcopyrite to the minerals of the ordinary
reef is at least sometimes favourable, though there is nothing to
show that the increase in gold is derived from the chalcopyrite.

5. Siderite-chalcopyrite. — A vein composed mainly of these
two minerals, with smaller quantities of pyrite, arsenopyrite.

of Victorian Auriferous Occurrences. 33

galena and stibnite is described by Ub-ich as forming a casing in
a flaiiii on the Eagleliawk Reef, Maldon (1) It assayed 17 per
cent, cnppri- and 45oz. gold per ton. On occount of the marked
ditterence in the gold contents and the mode of occurrence I
place this sepfunte from the Thompson River ore. It approaches
most nearly some of the dolomite veins which occur in the first
group, but differs in the prominence of chalcopyrite.

6. Pyrrliotite chalcopyrite. — The association of these two
minerals with one another is well-known in some important
copper-mining localities. In Victoria they often occur in the
quartz reefs, but I find no example of their occurrence in important
quantity apart from other groups. They appear together as an
addition to the grou[is. At Bethanga the addition of these two
minerals to the minerals of the first group produces an ore in
which coppei' is present in important quantity (6). At IMaldon
the two minerals are recorded by Moon more often from the same
mine than separately (10). At Mt. William, in the Grampians,
as described below, they (tccur with the minerals of the next
group, but the comparison with mineralogically similar occur-
rences in the Gong Gong granite near Ballarat indicates that they
may be regarded as independent. At the Gong Gong reservoir
small quantities of pyrrliotite and chalcopyrite occur in the
granite of a small quarry, and molylxlenite is found in the same
granite a mile away.

Evidence is wanting as to their influence on gold contents of
the ore. At Cobar, N.8.W., these minerals with pyritc form
the ore worked for copper and carry a little gold, but at a rate which
would be worthless wheie these minerals only themselves form a
small quantity of the ore.

The localities of these minerals togethei' are mostly near
granitic rocks, or where the rocks are somewhat altered. Pyrrlio-
tite occurs at Piggoreet ; hei'e also the rcjcks are more schistose
than usual in the bedrock of the Ballarat district, but the altera-
tion cannot be due to the nearest granite area on the surface, as
it is too far away. It seems more likely to bean outcrop of older
rocks than usual.

Pyrrhotite occurs at Castlemaine and at Newstead. These
also may be not far from granitic rocks.

84 T. S. Hart: The Mineralogicol (■haracters

The next three groups are found in oi- near the granitic rocks.

7. Molybdenite, usually with pyrite. — At Mclntyre's a quartz
reef contains these minerals. It is not noticed to be auriferous
except on the indirect evidence that the alluvial gold of some
gullies appears to start in its vicinity (14). This reef is 100 feet
from the ill-defined McEvoy's Reef, from which three masses
were obtained in close proximity to one another, and weighing
about 800oz. each. Another reef on Mt. Moliagul contains the
same two minerals, with the addition of arsenopyrite (14). It
may be noticed that arsenopyrite is known as an accessory in
the granite rocks at Morang.

At the Mt. William goldfield in the Grampians the gold was
largely derived from the neighbourhood of one or more mineral-
ised bands in the gi'anodiorite. Part of the so-called alluvial was
simply decomposed granodiorite in situ, carrying tine gold. This
led to some remarkable views on the held as to the probable
course of supposed deep leads. On these mineralised bands the
quartz was in very thin veins for the most part, but at places
hollow swellings occurred, lined with quartz crystals of a some-
what amethystine colour. In the alluvial there were many
amethyst crystals and quartz crystals with marked zoned
structure. The miners stated that the distribution of the gold
was about that of the amethysts. 8oiiie of the claims woi'ked
decomposed seams in the granitic rock and were said to be
obtaining payable results. The mineralised bands contained,
with these small quartz veins and on joint plane without quartz,
molybdenite with a smaller quantity of pyrite, and in some
places chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite. Scheelite was also said to
occur, but I obtained no certain information on this point.
Though the undecomposed rock carrying these minerals was not
being worked there can be little doubt that a great part of the
gold at least was derived from such occurrences, as gold was
being obtained in seams in the partly weathered rock, in
thoroughly decomposed rock, and in alluvial, of which some of
the characteristic constituents were cleaily derived ■ from such
bands.

8. Bismuth minerals. — These were noticed by Ulrich from
Kingower and elsewhere (1, 2). They occur also at Redbank

of Victorian Auriferoiis Occurrences. 35

near Avoca ; among those from this locality there is a little tetra-
dymite. Bismuth minerals witli traces of tellurium occur also at
Mallacoota (4) and tetradymite is also recorded from Maldon (4).
A part of the bismuth at Maldon occurs in the rare mineral
maldonite (2). Native bismuth, bismuthinite, bismite and
bismutite are recorded from Maldon.

9. Wolfram. — In the localities of which I have most detail
this mineral is associated with one of the preceding groups, but
it seems best to place it separately. There is no evidence of any
influence on gold contents, and it would probably be of moie
value for itself if in quantity than for its influence on the gold.

The following examples show the minerals of the last three
groups associated with one another.

Reef on Sandy Creek, Maldon. — Native bismuth, hematite,
schorl and wolfram. No statement as to gold contents (1).

Reef on the Nugget ty Range, Maldon. — Quartz, orthoclase,
schorl, mica, molybdenite, wolfram, scheelite. It is contained in
granitic i-ock. Gold is not mentioned {"1). Rock crystal and
cairngorm occur in the cavities. Reefs of this kind are no doubt
the source of the quartz crystals containing, in different instances,
molybdenite, scheelite and schorl, which have been found in the
neighbouring Bradford Lead.

Superb Reef, Linton, near the granite, contains bismuth, bis-
muthinite, bismutite, molybdenite, wolfram, besides quartz
crystals containing schorl, and rutile (5).

It may be noticed that the supposed columbite at Maldon has
been shown to be rutile (4), and that Ulrich records titanium
dioxide from Steiglitz (2).

10. The material worked for mercury on the Jamieson River
consists, in samples I have received, of a clay rock with quartz
veins containing in both cinnabar and mercury. Gold is .said to
be present. Cinnabar is also recorded from near Bullumwaal,
found in small Ijroken fragments on the surface near a quartz
reef (4).

Campbell's Reef, Moyston, is mentioned by Ulrich (2) as con-
taining strong irregular veins and patches of calcite, sometimes
with galena and pyrite (2). It would seem most likely that
these are analogous to the dolomite veins and patches at Ballarat

?A

and other places, and it need not he for this reason separated
from the first type.

Manganese oxides are sometimes abundant in the outcrops of
quartz reefs. A source of this manganese is not always evident.
In some cases, as at Linton, it may be derived from wolfram.
Sphalerite may also contribute to it. One analysis of psilomel-
ane from Maldon showed nearly 3 per cent, cobalt oxide. Rho-
dochrosite is recorded from Clunes(l). A pink mineral in a
very thin layer or film is sometimes found at Ballarat, but
examination showed neither manganese nor cobalt.

I have in my possession a sample of zinc from Bamganie, said
to have been obtained in workings in the 80ft. level of one of the
mines. There was nothing in the circumstances under which I
obtained it to suggest any doubt as to its genuineness.

I have attempted this classification of the auriferous deposits
with a view to arranging the more important pai-ts of our present
information, and to suggest a basis for more complete and more
systematic observations in the future. Where old records are
quoted without any explicit reference they are contained in
Atkinson's List of Victorian Minerals (3), and in Walcott's
Additions (4). These papers have greatly facilitated the work
of this classification.

The present part includes additional notes and references on
the species already referred to by us, together with corrections
and alterations, as well as particulars on additional species which
have been obtained since the publica.tion of the various parts.
The additional species here dealt with number 58, so that with
the previous total of 707, our list of Victorian Marine Shells now
amounts to 765 species.

An Index to the whole catalogue is appended, giving refer-
ences to the genera and species, but not to the sub-genera, and
we have to thank Mr. R. A. Baistow for its compilation.

We would draw attention to a recent paper by W. H. Dall,
entitled " An Historical and Systematic Review of the Frog
Shells and Tritons," published by the Smithsonian Institution,
Volume xlvii., 1904, pp. 114-144, in wliich he re-classities the
shells which we have regarded as being comprised in the family
Lotoriidae, and refers to some of our species.

that Monoplex cornutus, Perry, Conch., pi. 3, f. 1, represents the
above species. We do not coincide in this opinion, and Dr. Dall
in his paper from the Smithsonian Miscellaneous Collections,
vol. xlvii., p. 123, referring to Perry's figures, states: "One,
cornutus, Perry, is unidentifiable, certainly not exaratum. Reeve,
to which it has been referred."

New South Wales species, as well as being a living survival of a
type very abundant in the older Tertiaries of Southern Austrailia.

See part i., p. 282.

1901. Voluta roadknightae, Spencer. P. Mai. S. Loncl.,
vol. iv., p. 184.
Obs. — In our previous reference we erroneously stated that
the type specimen was obtained at Portland. The shell from
that locality exhibited in the National Museum is not the type.
In the reference above given Prof. Spencer states : '' The type
specimen came . . . from Ninety-mile Beach, on the Vic-
torian coast . . . though not in the public exhibition was
still preserved in the National Museum.' Both of us have been
permitted to examine it, and it is beyond doubt the specimen
described by Prof. McCoy, the measurements and fea.tures given
by him exactly corresponding.

Obs. — In the 1902 paper referred to, Mr. Pace enters fully
into the history of the confusion regarding this species, which
in the first instance had the erroneous locality " West Indies '"
attributed to it, from the characters of the radula (of which he
gives figures), he separates it from the Columbellidae, and
maikes the shell the type of the above new genus, which he
states may be best placed among the Pisaniinae.

50 Priteliard and Gatlif:

1905. Surcula trailli, Suter. P. Mai. S. Lond.. vol. vi.,
p. 201.
Obs. — Mr. Suter states that the type is in the Colonial
Museum, Wellington, N.Z., and beyond doubt the same species
as D. aemula, Angas. Tryon, therefore, is right in his treat-
ment of the species, but we are still unable to consider that his
two figures correctly represent the same shell. The form, we
find, is fairly depicted on liis pi. 12, f. 37, as previously quoted
by us.

Obs. — Prof. Tate in the reference above given in a paper on
the Fauna of the Older Tertiary of Australia does not state
definitely that he considers C. alba, Petterd, to be a Mitro-

1902. Lippistes separatista, Hedley. P.L.S. N.S.W.,

p. 23, 24 (non Dilhvyn).
Obs. — When ive described T. gabrieli it was from a single
specimen, which has only two encircling carinae on the body
whorl. Other shells have been since dredged in the saime
locality, and, in every instance the body whorl is tricarinate.
Examination of the type shows that the growth of the penul-
timate whorl has been interfered with, and apparently this
accounts for its only having two carinae on the body whorl. As
Lippistes had not been recorded from our Southern waters, we

56 Pi'itcliard and Gatliff :

concluded it was new. We are now constrained to regard it as
an abnormal form of L. blainvilleanus, and are indebted to Mr.
C. Hedley for the good work in his papers quoted in clearing
up the difficulties surrounding the genus. Since the publication
of his paper referred to, he has written to us stating that he
now considers L. separatista, Dillwyn, distinct from L. blainvil-
leanus, Petit, arnd remarks upon the curious distribution of
the species. He dredged it in 10 fathoms off the mouth of the
Bata,via River, Gulf of Carpentaria, and in 17-20 fathoms, off
Masthead Island, Capricorn Group, Queensland. Melvill and
Standen record it from Flinders' Entrance, near Mer, 20 fathoms,
but there is no record of its occurring in New South WaJes
or South Australia.

EULIMA INDISCKKTA, Tate.

See part iv., p. 145.

Obs. — Tate, when describing this species in 1898, draws atten
tion to the fact of E. petterdi. Beddome. being a close ally, and
reproduces Beddomes original description, showing points of
difference ; yet subsequently in Tate and May's Tasmanian
Census we find that E. petterdi, Beddome, though described in
1883, is subordinated to E. indiscreta, Tate, as a synonym.
This treatment appears somewhat perplexing.

Obs.— We are quite in agi-eement with Mr. Hedley in his

treatment of this species, and the fact of its having been pre-
viously overlooked is easily understood, now that he has called
attention to the wrong numbering of the figures, and the shell
is depicted in such a way as to lead one to consider it as being
concentrically ridged, whereas it is concentrically banded, and
specimens thus coloured are rarely met with here, as the radial
colouration is usually more conspicuous, and frequently all dark
markings are absent or only discernible about umbones.

are tAvo species mounted on the card, one of Avhich he fifjures
as beinp: the type, according to description, of T. Woods' species,
and the other one he considers to be L. tatei, Ano-as. Tate and
May in their Tasnianian Census united L. minima, and L. tatei.
The former species had not then been figured. We now agree
with IVIr. May in considering them distinct, but they are very
similar. May figures a small form, and Tate a very large one.

Obs. — In our previous treatment of this species we included
P. holosericus, Reeve, as ai synonym, based upon the figure and
descriptions available to us. In our present examination of
specimens from New South Wales of P. holosericus, we note a
•divergence in the minute details of sculpture, from our ordinary
forms of G. striatularis, which, if constant throughout a series,
anight be utilised for specific distinction.

Associated Fossils at Wombat Creek - 99

Introductory Remarks.

The subject of the following notes was included in a series of
fossils collected by W. H. Ferguson from Wombat Creek, and
submitted to Sir Fredk. McCoy for determination by the Mines
Department, Melbourne, about April, 1894.^ The occurrence of
this tish is of very great interest, notonly on accountof its being the
oldest recorded vertebrate from Australia, but also that it repre-
sents a species of the genus Thyestes, which is by far the largest
yet described. The genus Thyestes (=:Auchenaspis, Egerton) has,
up to the present, been characterized by small-sized species as com-
pared with the tishes l)elonging to the allied genus Cephalaspis.
The specimen now before us vies, in point of size, with the
majority of the species of the last-named genus.

I I have been unable to find any notes or comments with these specimens.

DESORIPTION.

Family CEPHALASPIDiE.

Genus T/ivesfes, Eicliwald.

Thyestes magnificus, sp. nov.

Specific Characters. — The remains of this fish available for
description consist of more than two-thirds of the dorsal surface
of the head shield, together with two and part of a third series
of Dorso-lateral plates, which are fused to the shield posteriorly.
The fossil is preserved in a limonitic raudstone, and apparently
the external layer of the shield and posterior plates is partially
dissolved away ; l)ut, in spite of this, the surface tuberculations
are represented in strong relief. The Cornua are wanting, but
there are indications on the matrix that they were incurved and
comparatively short.

Head Shield truncately rounded in front and narrower in that
region than is usual in the genus. Sides gently rounded and sloping
outwards, having a shallow inflection near the n)iddle of the
lateral margins. F^order of head shield formed by a strong rim,
rounded dorsally, whilst just within, on the anterior and antero-
lateral margins, lies a series of short, parallel, oblique bars
(borders of the marginal cells), cut oft' by an inner border,
bounded in turn by a series of tubercles. The inner border of the
head shield leaves the lateral margins at a distance of about
13inm. from the middle of the anterior rim, curving sharply
backwards to meet the inter-orliital ridge.

Surface of Shield (Dorsal), originally more or less convex, but
now irr-egular through distortion and slight crushing on the
right lateral side; covered with numerous somewhat large
tubercles, each seated in a depressed area, usually hexagonal, the
sides of which appear to be finely and radiately striate, as in
certain figui-ed specimens of Cephalaspis lyelli.^ The hexagonal
tesselation of the shield is best seen in our specimen towards the
left posterior angle.

1 cf. Agassiz. Poiss. Foss., vol. ii., pi. 16, tijjs. 1,2.

Victorian Fossils, Part VII. 95

It is probable tliat the tubercles are bi'ought out in stronger
relief by the removal of part of the external layer of the shield.
Occasionally the tubercles are hollow at their summits, a charac-
ter likewise observed in certain species of Cephalaspis.^ A more
or less divergent and quincuncial arrangement is observable with
regard to the tubercles, and they appear to radiate from near the
base of the head shield. There is an obscure areolation of the
surface of the shield, due to numerous sinuous ridge-like lines; each
areola enclosing several tubercles. The margins of the post-orbital
plate are distinctly seen, as well as the inter-obital ridge ; the
latter is tuberculated on the lateral slopes, rough on the summit,
and crenate in front. Position of eyes apparently indicated by
a pair of elliptical depressions, situated near the base of the
inter-orbital ridge, at a distance of about \ the length of the
shield, measured from the front.

Dorso-lateral scales. — In the known species of Thyestes the
fused posterior body scales seem to have been contiiied to a single
series. In our specimen there appear to be some indications of
longitudinal junction lines, separating a dorsal and lateral series,
but the evidence for such is not so clear as to allow one to speak
positively. The lateral edges of the posterior scales extend almost
to the base of the cornua.

The surface ornamentation of the dorsolateral scales is similar
to that on the head shield but liner, the tubercles being about |
the diameter of those on the head shield. The margins of the
dorsolateral scales are strongly scalloped, and in the present
specimen do not extend backward so far along the median dorsal
ridge as in Thyestes verrucosus, Eichwald.'^

Dimensions (Approximate, on account of some distortion): —

Length of Head Shield along median line, from

anterior rim to the crista occipitalis - - - 39mm.

Width of Head Shield, measured from the widest

part at the base of the cornua - - - - 88mm.

Distance of the orbits from the anterior rim of the

Head Shield, about ------ 16mni.

96 F. Chapman :

Approximate length of Post-orbital Valley - - 18mm.

scales represented in this specimen - - - 14mm. .

Average diameter of tubercles on Head Shield - - 1.5mm.

Average diameter of tuliercles on Dor.so-lateral scales Imui.

Atiinities. — The present species shows certain affinities to the
three known species of Thyestes, viz., T. verrucosus, Eichwald ;
T. egertoni, Powrie and Lankester sp.,^and T. salteri, Egerton, sp.'
The outline of the head siiield, however, is not so long, pi-opor-
tionally, in any of the above-named species, our specimen being
more decidedly narrowed in front.

The forward position of the occipital crest corresponds most
nearly with that in T. egertoni and T. salteri, T. verrucosus having
the crest prolonged far behind the points of the cornua. As
regards the post-orbital fossa, the border of its plate in T.
magniticus is regularly pyriform or Plorence-Hask shaped, rather
than elongately triangular, as in the restored figure of T.
verrucosus given by Rohon, ' whilst in T. egertoni it is apparently
elliptical.

Although our specimen is not sufficiently well preserved to
allow one to speak of the actual form of the cornua, the base of
the left coriiu is so shaped that it seems probable, similarly with
T. salteri, they were more prolonged than in T. verrucosus, and
recurved towards the body as in T. egertoni, but were not so
slender. The tubercles of the head shield are of a uniform sizi-
in our species; whilst they are varial)le in T. verrucosus, and
comprise both large and small.

The characters which help to confirm the above descriljed
species as belonging to the genus Thyestes are : —

1. The pre.sence of fused posterior dorso-lateral scales.

'1. The general form and outline of the head shield.

3. The coarsely tuberculated surface of the head shield, and
posterior body scales, comparable to some extent with that of
Thyestes verrucosus.

Victorian Fo.ssils, Part VII. 97

Whilst showing certain characteristics in common with T. ver-
rucosus, T. egertoni, and T. salteri, the species now named
T. magnificus differs in the wide, laterally extended, fused
posterior elements of the body-covering ; in the extremely
pronounced tubercular ornament, and the sometimes hollow or
perforate character of the tubercles ; and in the extraordinarily
large size of the head-shield as compared with all known examples
of Thyestes. The width ratio of T. magnificus is as 2:1 in com-
parison with the measurements of a specimen of T. verrucosus
given by Rohon\ and as 4:1 compared with a specimen of T.
egertoni in the collection of the National Museum.

Occurrence. — This interesting and unique specimen was fuund
in the Silurian (Yeringian) mudstones of Woml)at Creek, a
tributary of the Mitta Mitta River, N.E. Gippsland.

At this locality the Silurian locks rest unconformably on the
Upper Ordovician slates and sandstones, the slates of the latter
group containing Climacograptus bicornis, J. Hall, var. longispiiia,
T. S. Hall; Dicellograptus elegans, Garruthers; and D. cf. morrisi,.
Hopk.

The downward succession of these beds, resting on Ordovieiaii
strata, is as follows'^ : —

4 Shales and fine-grained sandstone, very fossiliferous —
with Trilobites, Crinoids, Corals and Rrachiopods. (This bed
in all probability yielded the fi.sh remains").

3 Limestone — with Coi-als and Crinoids.

2 Thin bed of sandstone, with few fossils — Trilobites,.
Crinoids, Corals, and Rrachiopods.

1 Rreccia and conglomerate — with internal casts of Atrypa
reticularis.

From the general facies of the fossiliferous Silurian rocks
exposed at Wombat Creek, it is highly proVjable that the several
l)eds may all be included in the uppermost or Yeringian series.

A noteworthy feature, in common with similar Silurian rocks
of other localities, where the junction of the Silurian and Upper
Oixlovician can be seen, is the absence of the lower, Melbournian^

division ; the rocks overlying tlie Ordovician Ijein^ apparently in
all cases referable to the Yeriiigian. Tiiis afFoi-ds us unmistak-
able proof of a remarkable overlap of the upper division of the
Silurian system in Victoria, the more extensive development of
the upper beds being a consequence of the gentle subsidence of
the lower or Melbournian rocks during the deposition of the
Yeringian mud, sands and shelly accuumlations in the sea which
covered central and eastern Victoria during the later Silurian
period.

The uppermost beds of the Yeringian series occurring at
Lilydale, in the Upper Y'"arra, near Mount Matlock and at
Wombat Creek, contain a few genera (as Panenka, Hercynella^ and
Styliola) which are elsewhere more typical of the rocks of
Lower Devonian age, as, for example, the Lower Helderberg
series of North America. In regard to the latter, it is some-
wliat significant that, whilst the European geologists place the
L. Helderbergian in the Lower Devonian, the American geologists
consider them, together with the Oriskany Sandstone, as the
topmost beds of the Silurian, on account of their containing a
large percentage of typical Silurian fossils. Our Yei'ingian
beds in Victoria seem to furnish a parallel case, for, although the
small admixture of Devonian forms has inclined some geologists
to denominate them as Siluro-Devonian, their general facies
shows them undoubtedly to belong to the highest beds of the
♦Silurian. A systematic examination of the Yeringian bivalves,
which the writer iiopes to pul)lish shortly, furnishes further
support to the above conclusion.

Judging by the general aspect of the fo.ssils at Wombat Creek,
the mudstones of Bed 4 ai-e probaljly equivalent in part to the
Ludlow l)eds of Shropshire, the Upper Oesel Ci'oup in Russia,
and the Waterlime Group (and, possibly, the L. Helderberg
series) in North America ; whilst the limestone of Bed 3, includ-
ing the thick limestone bed at Cave Hill, Lilydale, and the
lenticular masses of limestone on the Thomson River, contain a
facies which reminds one of the Wenlock Group in England and
Scandinavia, and of the Niagara Group of North America. In
the present imperfect state of our knowledge of the rich Vic-

toriaa Lower Palaeozoic fauna, it is impossible, however, to draw
any close comparisons between similar faunas elsewhere ; but
when this lack of knowledge is supplied, the deductions to be
drawn from the data thus afforded, promise, undoubtedly, to be
full of interest and value to the stratigraphist.

Associated Fossils at Wondmt Creek. — Determinations of a
series of fossils from Wombat Creek have already been made by
Mr. R. Etheridge, junr., who recorded the following forms' : — ■

Petraia, sp.; Cystiphyllum (probaldy); a Cyathophylloid
coral; Favosites ; Pleurodictyum ; Alveolites; Heliolites ;
Plasmopora sp. nov. ; (?) Lingula ; Leptaena ; 8trophomena ;
Orthis ; (?) Pentamerus ; Rhynchonella decemplicata ; Atrypa
reticularis ; Cromus murchisoni, de Kon. ; Phacops.

From the material collected at Wombat Creek, sent to
Prof. McCoy, at the National Museum, I have myself made the
following determinations of Yeringian fossils : — Receptaculites
fergusoni, Chapm. ; Am[)lexus sp. ; Favosites sp. nov. ;
Encrinuius punctatus, Briinnich, sp. ; E. murchi.soni, de Kon. sp.;
Rhombopora sp. nov.; Chonetes cresswelli, Chapm.; C. striatella,
Dalman sp. ; (?) Stropheodonta sp. ; Orthis testudinaria,

FroceedmyH of the Royal Society of Victoria. 103

During the year two Members, one Country Member, and four
Associates were elected, and two Members and one Associate
resigned.

The "Proceedings" of the Society, New Series, Vol. XVI.,
Pt. 2, and Vol. XVII., Pt. I., were published during the year.

A deputation of the Council waited on the Chief Secretary
during the year, to request an increase in the Annual Grant, but
the Council was disappointed to find that no increase was made.
The increased size of the volume has meant a larger expenditure,
and our finances are consequently at a very low ebb. The sum
which was originally specially collected as a Research and Publi-
cation Fund, has, during the past few years, become exhausted,
and unless the Government come to our aid to assist us in pub-
lishing the results of the investigations of our members, our
annual volume must be materially diminished in size, and a great
deal of valuable matter will be lost. A further appeal will be
made to the Government during the year, when it is hoped that
the requisite amount will be granted.

During the year the Library was increased by the addition of
1112 volumes and parts. The binding is getting still further
into arrears, and valuable publications, not found elsewhere in
the State, are in danger of being destroyed.

It is desirable that the grounds and fencing should be put in
better order, and the caretaker's cottage is also in urgent need of
repairs, but the work is at present beyond oui- means.
