Tiiis list was, however, necessarily very iini)crl'ect; and since it was prepared, a large amount of additional nu\terial has aecniniilated, and some important investigations have been made. In 1HG2, being aware that Mr T. Davidst)n was engaged in the examination of Ihitish Carboniferous IJrachiopods (w the I'aheontographical Society, I sent to that eminent pala;ontologist, the best living authority on lirachiopods, a collection of these shells, representing all the species known to me, and ho very kindly undertook their examination along with those in Sir C. Lyell's collection. The results Avere given to the world in an able memoir in the Proceedings of the Geological Society of London for 18G3. This an important step in advance; but the other fossils, not Brachio- pods, still remained untouched. In the meantime, Professor llow of Windsor, and his pupil, H. Poole, Esq., jun., had made some interesting discoveries at Windsor and Kennetcook, and a new Trilobite from the latter place, sent to me by the former gentleman, was described by Mr Billings in the Canadian Ivituralist, under the name P/iillipsia Ilowi.
