Competition is at first local; but the forms which prevail over others slowly spread get acclimatized & beat others out. The competition is mundane. S. U. States & India not far from antipodal

no. 20 Suppl Bronn p. 20 – good remark on soft animals not preserved – only certain strata good for preservation

p. 45 Summary of cases of same species in 2 formations – are of Orbigny & Agassiz admit if 46 epochs of synchronous origin & perishing of an entire creation have never been formed – good

Read into Living period – more distinct in all older formation – Length of deviation of species very different

p. 116 Species seem to last less then one formation ie for more than [illeg] of among life of species

p 117 agrees with Forbes that some genera slowly arise & then decline, but he accepts the Silurian system, it is not usual for though they do arise quickly, they then keep constant often for long & then suddenly decline (N.B latter will ensue if other competing form rise quickly Lower genera in each class last longer than higher.

p 49 direction on average of each species = 1/2 form, when there are 15 of them; so that each formation implies much change & must be long; but probably broken by inside intervals – Var local another explanation –
