page 534 note 1 Hector (1885, p. 339) also says “a calcareous tubular body.” None of the specimens submitted by Mr. Ferrar are calcareous, but all, from all localities, are silicified throughout.

page 535 note 1 Accounts of the Maitai beds of the Maitai River and Dun Mountain district near Nelson have been given by M'Kay (1878 and 1879), who, however, mentions only “Annelid tracks” and a shell like Inoceramus. But these beds were not then correlated with the Annelid slates and sandstones of Westland and Mount Torlesse, which were placed in an underlying Rimutaka series (see Hector, 1878).
