OP FIVE GENERA OF MESOZOIC REPTILES. 55 saurus Crarriptoni of the Upper Lias, which Prof. Seeley has made the type of the genus Bliomaleosaurus, and which is characterized by its enormous head and teeth, short mandibular symphysis, and short neck, in which the vertebrae are comparatively few in number, with short centra, having deeply cupped faces, and carrying double costal facets, and with firm articulation of the arches. The pecto- ral girdle is unknown in this form ; but in the Lower Liassic Plesio- saurus megacephalus, as well as in the closely allied P. arcuatus of Owen, in which the head and neck exhibit all the generic characters of the so-called Bliomaleosaurus, this part of the skeleton is shown. It has an extremely large omosternum, forming a shield-like plate, with a long wide notch on the anterior border, and apparently consisting of a single element ; the scapulas and coracoids being of the general type of those of Plesiosaurus. Mention has already been made of the large Sauropterygian founded upon vertebras and teeth from the Great Oolite, to which the name Thaumatosaurus oolithicus has been applied ; and a comparison of the figures of these speci- mens with Plesiosaurus Cramptoni fails to show even a specific dis- tinction between the two, although this might be indicated if fuller materials were available. Since, therefore, I fail to see any charac- ters by which Bliomaleosaurus can be distinguished from Thauma- tosaurus, I can but include the former in the latter genus. The cervical vertebrae of Thaumatosaurus, although they agree with those of the present form in their short centra and double costal facets, are distinguished by their deeply cupped, in place of nearly flat, terminal facets, and are thereby also distinguished from those of Pliosaurus. Vertebrae of the type of those of Thaumato- saurus occur from the Lias to the Kimeridge Clay, the species of the latter horizon having been long ago described by Cuvier as Plesiosaurus carinatus. With regard to the generic position of the species forming the subject of this communication, I may observe that before I had satisfied myself as to the difference of its cervical vertebrae from those of Thaumatosaurus, and also as to the nature of the pectoral girdle of any of the species which I include in the latter, I considered * that the species in question might enter that genus, since I did not regard the elongated man- dibular symphysis as necessarily indicative of generic distinction. The pectoral girdle of P. arcuatus is, however, so totally different from that of the Oxfordian form that I can no longer maintain this view; especially with the concomitant difference in the cervical vertebrae. I cannot, moreover, very well include the present form in Pliosaurus, from which it is distinguished by the firm articulation of the arches with the centra of the vertebrae, and the longer epipo- dial bones ; and I therefore — much as I dislike proposing new generic terms — feel bound to refer it to a new genus, for which I think the name Peloneustes will be appropriate. The Kimeridgian vertebra to which Professor Seeley has applied the name Plesiosaurus sterrodirus will belong to the same genus, and also the femur described by Phillips as P. cequalis. Geol.

Thayer's Gull, first winter. This bird was found at Morro Creek mouth. The slender bill, rounded head, dark brown wingtips with fine whitish primary edging and fairly plain scapulars helped to identify this species.
