Extract

The fossils described by Mr. Hudleston, F.R.S., in Part II of this paper, were found by Captain B. E. N. Gurdon, C.I.E., D.S.O., Assistant Political Agent, Chitral, on the right bank of the Chitral river, between Chitral and Mastuj. The spot where they were collected is indicated by a small cross marked on the accompanying sketch-map (Fig. 1), which has been based on the map of the Pamirs compiled under the direction of the Right Hon. G. N. (now Lord) Curzon to illustrate a paper by him published in the Journal of R.G.S. of 1890. My son, Major A. H. McMahon, C.S.I., C.I.E., F.G.S., in company with Captain Gurdon, visited Mastuj in October, 1900.
