The Decades Will contain figures and descriptions in the first place of the more characteristic fossils of each formation, of Which good specimens may be in the National Collection so that observers in the field may make use of them for preliminary or approximate determination of the geological ages of the strata they may meet. A portion of the impression of the plates Will be kept back until a complete systematic treatise on the fossils of each formation may be issued When the materials approach completion.
In this sixth Decade, the first plate illustrates the extinct gigantic Kangaroo, Macropus Titan, so common in our superficial Pliocene Tertiary deposits the predecessor of the Old Man Kangaroo of the same localities in our own times.
