18. Sutton Street. 



At the west end of Sutton Street, North Melbourne, an outcrop 

 of white clay is visible along the bank of the swampy land. This 

 is marked on the quarter-sheet and is perhaps one of the localities 

 from which Brough Smyth obtained fossil leaves, as he only gives 

 his locality in a general way. We were unable to find any fossils 

 in the deposit. The beds are well stratified and consist for the 

 most part of white clays which are however very sandy in places, 

 the sand being very coarse. It contains large ferruginous 

 concretions and irregular masses of fine dark coloured trans- 

 lucent flint. Its eroded surface is covered by the older volcanic 

 rock. These clays represent the Miocene of Brough Smyth's 

 section (1). 



19. Flemington. 



At the top of the opposite escarpment across the Moonee Ponds 

 Valley a small excavation yielded a few forms similar to those of 

 the lower beds of the Royal Park cutting. 



20. Brunswick Road. 



The ferruginous grits overlying decomposed volcanic rock in 

 the road cutting to the west of the Moonee Ponds Creek are 

 fossiliferous, though the variety of forms does not seem to be very 

 great. Mr. G. Sweet drew our attention to the occurrence of 

 fossil leaves in some of the upper beds in the cutting, and on 

 visit in his company we were able to secure evidence of their 

 occurrence.
