Eighty or hundred exemplars of these are vertebra (fishes and sauriers), all the others belong to the groups of Coelenterata, Echinodermata, Mollusca, except few Annelids. Some not yet fixed forms will probably be Arthropods. To No 14 still belong 40 - 50 exemplars of fossil plants and 10 exemplars of Crustacees.

To No. 10 belong 15-20 exemplars of vertebra to No 11 40-50 ex. of the fossil flora of Häring. The greatest part of this division consists of Mollusks, Echinodermata pp. - It is still to remark that amongst the palaeontological divisions of the eastern Alps are many suits of quite new not yet scientifically fixed or described forms, which will be of a peculiar interest.
