1 It is to be regretted that no obituary notice of Desor appeared either in the Quarterly Journal of the Geological Society or in the Geological Magazine.

2 We have noticed few other mistakes; but in vol. i, on p. 244, the “Dean of York” should be Dean of Westminster (Buckland), on p. 445 “Leyme” should be Swanage, on p. 446 “Riggs” should be Trenham Reeks, and in vol. ii on p. 74 “Hapley” should be Huxley. Mrs. Ames was evidently in doubt about some of these names, owing to difficulty in reading the MS.; but her work beàrs evidence of scrupulous care.
