Copy of referee's comments [by William Dickson Lang] on a paper 'Fossils of the late pre-cambrian (newer proterozoic) Adelaide series, South Australia' by Tannatt William Edgeworth David and Robin John Tillyard Paper reference code: B.30 Has examined the original rock upon which the paper is based. Argues that the authors' reconstruction is based upon supposed remains identified in several different cavities in the rock; these could not all come from a single organism and so the reconstruction cannot be considered valid. From a geological view, the evidence would be against the cavities in the rock being fossil moulds, rather than in favour of this conclusion. As such does not recommend publication. [Not published in Royal Society journals, the research was published as a Memoir in memorial to Sir T. W. Edgeworth David in 1936 in Australia]. [22 June 1932]
