H. Dall,[[/crossed out]] This paper enumerates the fossils of the Miocene beds of Martha's Vineyard for the first time and describes two new species. The Pliocene is recognized in the beds above the Miocene and a list of species found in it is given. It is shown that the Ashley Marls of South Carolina and the phosphatic rock which overlies them are probably Miocene and not Eocene in age as hitherto supposed. A list of species from the phosphate rock is given which includes the characteristic Miocene type Ecphora quadricostata. [[left margin]] (14) [[/left margin]] How I came to be a Paleontologist; by W.
