So many additions have been made to the list of Tertiary fossils of Tasmania during the last seven years that it is now very desirable that a Reference List, complete to date, should be placed at the disposal of all those who may wish to make themselves acquainted with the Tertiary fossils of this island. I have, with this object in view, prepared the following Reference List, which I hope will be of some advantage to the members of this Society, as well as to geologists generally. The list embraces about 382 species, of which the following is an abstract. Includes explanation of abbreviations used in catalogue and plates.
