Dr lloneyman has addressed himself with some success to the work of tracing the relations and continuation of the beds exposed in the Arisaig section, and has published an interesting paper on the subject in the Journal of the Geological Society (1861). In this paper he divides the whole series seen at Arisaig into five sub-sections, noted respectively in ascending order as A, B, B', C, D. He distinguishes the groups A and B from my Lower Arisaig scries, which he regards as equivalent to his groups B' and C, while D is the equivalent of my Upper Arisaig series. Group A, of Dr Iloneyman's paper, includes the altered jaspideous shales seen near Arisaig Pier, and the gray argillaceous and arenaceous shales of Doctor's Brook. Dr lloneyman mentions, as occurring in them, species of Ortkoceras, Murchisnnia, Strophomena^ Orthis, Rhyn- chonella, Calymene, Corriulites, TentaciUttes
