Collections submitted with request dated August 27, 1965 are covered in this report. The six small collections are listed first, and discussed as a unit. The one large collection (65ABe21; 7469-SD) is listed and discussed separately. Specimens in all collections are poorly preserved, either recrystallized or crushed, and identifications are uncertain, in many cases, because of this.
