Or. W. TYRRELL ON THE [vol. lxxii, by Dr. Scott. Thus No. 3 in Table II (p. 104), No. 5, Table IV(p. 110), and No. 5, Table VI (p. 114), have not been used on thisscore. Furthermore, No. 7, Table II, has been omitted, becauseit represents merely a small and unimportant schlieren, whichwould have an effect on the average of the teschenites incommen-surate with its size and importance. The sum of the ferromagnesian oxides being utilized as abscissae,the diagram shows that the order of increasing richness in theseoxides is lugarite, teschenite, theralite, picrite, an
