PLATE III. 



ILLUSTRATIVE OF A PAPER, BY REV. PROFESSOR HAUGHTON, ON 

 SOME DISTORTED FOSSILS FROM THE CLEAVED ROCKS OF THE 

 SOUTH OF IRELAND. 



Fig. 



1. Orthis crenistria, from Carboniferous slate of Ardoginna, county of 

 Waterford, with its fringe line perpendicular to the intersection 

 of cleavage and bedding. 

 1a. Do., from Carboniferous slate of Carrigaline, county of Cork, with 

 its fringe line drawn out in the line of intersection of cleavage 

 and bedding. 

 1b. A fossil from the same locality as the last; but so changed by 

 cleavage, both in and perpendicular to the plane of bedding, as 

 to be hardly recognisable. I name it, with considerable hesita- 

 tion, Productus caperatus. 

 lc. A beautiful specimen of Euomphalus pentangulatus, distorted by 

 cleavage, from Little Island, county of Cork, where these dis- 

 torted fossils occur in great abundance in limestone. 

 Figs. 2, 2a, 2b, 2c, represent the distortion reduced in the propor- 

 tion of 5 : 4.
