Abstract
QUITE recently a remarkable discovery of a fossil jelly-fish has been made in the fine-grained blue mud-stone of the lower part of the Silurian at Brunswick, Victoria. It was in the same locality, but at a higher horizon, that another unique discovery was made about twenty-four years ago, of an exquisitely preserved crinoid, Helicocrinus plumosus, of which the entire organism was found, including the coiled distal end of the column.
