Sci., 1888, i, p. 229) was proposed for Phillips' B. cf. paxillosus Schloth. (Phillips, loc. cit., fig. 6), which is merely the young stage of B. australis; so that the name eremos must be abandoned.Google Scholar

^{page 410 note 4} The evidence for the age and divisions of the Rolling Downs will be published elsewhere. It may be stated, however, that the lower (Up. Aptian) series contains the Ammonite genera Aconeceras, Sanmartinoceras, Tropaeum. etc.

^{page 412 note 1} As Stolley has pointed out (“Die Systematik d. Belem,” 11 Jahrb. d. niedersächs. geol. Ver., 1919), there has been a great amount of confusion in the use of Belemnite terminology. The term “ lateral lines ” is here used as an equivalent of his “ Doppellinien ”.

^{page 412 note 3} Tate, R., “ Descr. new sp. Belemnite from Mesozoic strata, Cent. Aust..”: Trans. R. Soc. S. Aust., iii, 1880, p. 104Google Scholar, pl. iv. Specimens of D. canhami have been sent to me by Mr. M. S. Browne from a locality 23 miles S. of Tambo (Queensland) in association with an unnamed species of Inflaticeras. Elsewhere in this area the species has U. Albian associates. The species has been erroneously quoted from the Maryborough area in Queensland (Richards, : Rep. Aust. Ass. Adv. Sci., xiv, 1913, p. 182Google Scholar) where only the lower (Aptian) series is developed. The bed from which the specimens were derived represents the horizon at which Peratobelus australis occurs; and, since the two species were originally regarded as identical by Phillips, it is possibly the latter species which occurs in the bed.

^{page 413 note 1} It has not been found possible (at present) to subdivide the lineage of D. canhami owing to the apparently perfect gradation. Thus the specific name is used to cover the range of variation limited by forms such as those of Figs. 2 and 3.

^{page 415 note 2} In the opinion of the writer it is unnatural to remove the Hastatidae from their descendant, the Belemnitellidae, as a separate family as Stolley has done.
