rally well preserved, but in the sandstone they occur mostly 

 as casts. 



Mr. McKay mentions that he made a large collection of 

 fossils here, but does not give a list of the species. In his 

 first report on this place he states that he discovered several 

 genera of Secondary cephalopods, including Aucyloccras and 

 Scaphites. In his later reports of the Waitaki Valley, in 

 1876, 1881, and 1882, he makes no mention of these, so it 

 may be assumed that the reported discovery was due to a 

 misidentification of the genera in the early seventies.

 Of the twenty-seven species of molluscs enumerated above, 

 six, or 22-2 per cent., are still living; while the majority are 

 common to the Hampden, Kakanui, Awamoa, Waihao Porks, 

 Wharekuri, Kakahu, and Mount Donald beds.
