At the invitation of Prof. S.W. Carey, the author visited Tasmania during the period 15th November to 2nd December, 1950, to take part in discussions on Cambrian geology in Tasmania and to learn in the field the results of recent investigations on Tasmanian older Palaeozoic rocks. During the visit the author had the opportunity of expressing his opinions both on newly discovered fossils and on the age of some Palaeozoic units, and the main object of this report is to record these opinions.
