Abstract

At two localities near Kanye, in the south-eastern Bechuanaland Protectorate, formations previously assigned to the Waterberg System are now correlated with the Pretoria Series of the Transvaal System. In addition to modifying the palæogeography of the Transvaal period, this correlation may also help to clarify the stratigraphical position of the Matsap Series of the Cape Province.
