Abstract
THE second section of this map on the scale of 1 to 15 million, which is being issued by the Prussian Geological Institute under the supervision of Prof. Beyschlag, includes the four sheets of the southern part of the New World. Two of them were easily prepared, for one covers the Central Pacific with part of California, and another the south Pacific and New Zealand. The islands are too small to show their composition by colour, but initials might have been used for the purpose. As it is, islands such as Barbados and those off Brazil are left without any indication of their geology.
