1. T h e sole merit claimed for it is that the T a b l e Covers with equal efficiency any stage of the Shell's growth : hence sizes are rarely indicated, because of use merely in the case of mature specimens that anyone, with slight practice, can name from Searles W o o d ' s descriptions and figures ; b u t he presents no dichotomous T a b l e s of distinctions. I myself have used the present one during the last four busy years in collecting 160 out of the total 226 species occurring in S u f f o l k ; and I find it sufficiently handy as a rough, initial guide before proceedim,' for confirmation to W o o d ' s work, the obfuscating synonym} of which is here fully entered.—NOTE 2. N u m b e r s preceding localities refer to W o o d ' s work.—NOTE 3. Nearly all the Crag localities are in Suffolk, excepting Walton-on-Naze in Essex, Bramerton and Aldeby in Norfolk. T h e Red Crag localities are purposely not in order of t h e various ' h o r i z o n s ' that Geologists have ascribed to different patches, because I find, by pretty t h o r o u g h practical investigation of every patch now exposed, no basis whatsoever for such restrictions : the entire fauna (Protozoa, Porifera, Ccelenterata, Polyzoa, Annelida, Echinodermata, Mollusca, Cirrhipedia with other Crustacea, and Vertebrata) supplies no reliable criterion for such theoretical division, above the mainly-derivative basal nodule-bed.*—NOTE 4. T h e formations are ascendantly abbreviated thus : CC. Coralline Crag; R C . Red Crag ; M C . Mammalian seu Norwich seu Icenian Crag ; CB. Chillesford Bed of clay; L G . , M G . , U G . , and P G . are Lower a n d M i d d l e and U p p e r and Post-Glacial drift.—NOTE 5. Nothing novel is here attempted : for the present, we are trying to widerstand what W o o d knew.—NOTE 6. I need hardly add that the Shell's base is the hinged beak seu u m b o , whence ribs or folds (plicse) or S t r i a e usually radiate to the apex and sides, intersecting
NOTE
*I certainly think there may be such things as horizons on the extreme margins of the old seas ; but also that many of the places we work may be merely the churned-up sea-bottom, which never was a shore in Crag days. Of course, we know the sea has a remarkable way of depositing things according to their weight : shingle is always large high up the beach, an<i smaller as one gets to low-water mark. I fancy Cornelians must be specifically lighter than other pebbles, as they have a tendencv to be washed among shingle smaller than themselves ; Amber may be considered a mere featherweight, and is left among the big shingle as though or no account. T h e association of Shells and Coral, so familiär to Concnologists, is surely only a question of weight.— C. G. DOUGHTV, in !>'• 25 Jan. 1933.

No difficulty should be experienced in working the Table : if the Shell to be named is compared with 1 and found not to agree, it must fall into the alternative number that is given in brackets immediately against 1, that is 518 : but, if it agrees with 1, proceed to 2 : and so on throughout.

N E W B O U L D E R I N T H E BOULDER-CLAY.â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Early one morning in mid-April last labourers, ditching some three hundred yards north of Goddards-farm (of Ordnance Map) in the south-east corner of Badingham parish near Cransford church, unearthed the flat top of a presumed flag-stone ; and the farmer left them digging it out when he went off to Saxmundham market. To his astonishment, they were still digging it out on his return in the evening ! T h e nearly quadrate igneous Boulder is just five feet broad by thirty-seven inches high and forty-two deep, thus containing nearly fifty-four cubic feet of pale pink syenitic Granite. It has certainly lain undisturbed since first deposited among very loamy Boulder-clay from further north, on the top of a flat upland plateau between the Rivers Aide and Ore, by glacier ice of which the numerous long and mainly straight transverse scratches are conspicuous. It is now placed in the public lane, fronting the farm-house.
Technically, Dr. Herbert H . Thomas of the Geological Survey M u s e u m (who recently identified the extraneous monoliths of Stonehenge), has determined this boulder to be an abnormal rock : " It consists largely of plagioclase feispar with subordinate alkali feispar and a little quartz, while the green areas are occupied by a diopsidic pyroxene with subordinate green hornblende. For general purposes the rock might be called an augite-syenite ; but, from the curious unequal distribution of the felspathic and basic minerals, I feel that the rock is due to interflow of an acid, magma, u p o n a basic rock. I imagine that its origin is Scandinavian, tor I have not met anything similar to it from the east of Scotland or elsewhere in Britain, unless it be in the Cheviot Hills. FRANCIS
