Abstract
TWO years ago some notes were published in NATURE. (vol. xxxvi. p. 163) on the geology of a portion of the coast of China, compiled from a report forwarded by Surgeon P. W. Bassett-Smith, R.N., of H.M.S. Rambler to the Hydrographical Department of the Admiralty. Since then Mr. Bassett-Smith has extended the area of his investigations both to the north and south of the coast-line dealt with in this report, so as to embrace the whole eastern coast from Shanghai and Hong Kong; and has embodied his observations in two further reports to the Hydrographical Department.
