page 542 note 1 This statement requires correction, as on submitting the figured examples to the test of Hydrochloric acid their structure is found to be calcareous. My colleague, Mr. Thomas Davies, F.G.S., has also examined the fractured edge of one of the Yalves, and he identifies the cleavage planes as belonging to Carbonate of Lime.
