In studying the evolution and distribution of the Proboscidea and the arrival of man in Great Britain (Osborn, 1922, 1922a, 1922b), the writer has recently had occasion to review the faunal researches of Lydekker and Newton, and the collection of Mr. A. C. Savin, in connexion with the very interesting question of the geologic correlation of Great Britain with the Upper Pliocene fauna of Europeto the south-east, and of the Scandinavian Glaciation I on the north, with the advent of the northern forest, the boreal, and the Arctic mammal fauna of Great Britain.

The following brief notes compiled mainly some years ago will, it is hoped, convey information supplementary to that provided in the Memoir on the Geology of Eastern Fife (Appendix, pt. ii), and are to be regarded as useful only where they furnish particulars not already available from that source.

§ 1. The Beaverfoot Range lies immediately to the east of the Rocky Mountain Trench, and is the westernmost of the ranges included in the Rocky Mountain system.

The object of this paper is to deal more fully with the occurrence of Daviesiella llangollensis (Dav.) in the Carboniferous Limestone of Derbyshire, and further to make some observations on the sequence in the Midland area. In a later paper I hope to deal with the horizon of the “Brachiopod Beds”.

It was noted by the Rev. C. Noury in 1886 that sedimentary rocks were found in a small coastal area to the south of Fort Pezerie, on the south-western extremity of Guernsey. Professor T. G. Bonney observed the same area independently in September, 1910, after describing it in field notes in 1888 as a closejointed and rather schistose diabase. The Rev. E. Hill in 1884 had also regarded the rock in this area as constituting a dyke-formed diabase.
