Extract

Since the publication in 1887 of Dr. H. B. Guppy's book (1) very little has appeared on the geology of the Solomon Islands, and Cowper Reed's book (2) of 1921 is based on Guppy for this area. During the last four years a small representative collection of rocks has been sent to the British Museum (Natural History) and examined by Mr. W. Campbell Smith, to whom the author is much indebted for their identification.
