SUPPLEMENT To report to D.H. Richter dated 12/5/69.

In curating the samples and separating out those to be sent for identification of the corals, Harold Saunders noted that some of those without brachiopods were not mentioned. This supplement is in the interest of accounting to Mr. Richter for all the samples submitted. Most of these have nothing identifiale, and will be returned as requested on the transmittal sheet.

Harold also noted that the report compare a Neospirifer in sample 23880 with one in 23875, but that the list for 23875 omits that genus. This is an oversight; Neospirifer is present in 23875, and should be added to the list.
