Gotliemhammar. Beds of fine grained, nearly oolitic limestone with an abundance 

 of shells of Lainellibranchiates, the same as found in the oolite of Bursvik. Fine spe- 

 cimens of the large Murehisoniie have also been found here. 



Dalhem. Along the brook near Nya Sliteg^rds a good section is laid open, rich 

 especially in Brachiopods. 



Kviiklingbo. Marly limestone near the shore with the same fossils as at 



Ostergarn, where the limestone h is nodular, compact and gray. 



Stora and Lilla Cnrlso, where the strata are tilled with corals in regular bands, 

 each species apart from the others. 



Lau. A declivity east of the church consists of beds of marl and limestone and 

 is very rich in finely preserved fossils. 



Grotlingbo, Nils and Bursvih. Beds of oolite and pisolite of variable thickness. 

 Fossils much eroded and worn, the Lamellibranchiates extremely abundant and well 

 preserved. 



Hoburg. Above the sandstone oolite is resting, at first sandy, and afterwards more 

 compact and not so rich in grains of oolite as further north. Limestone beds follow 

 above this with seams of shale, containing Crotalocrinus, Labechia, Pentamerus galeatus, 

 Orthis rustica, Strophomena euglypha, St. filosa, Orthis hybrida, Rhynch. deflexa, Me- 

 ristella tumida. Two peculiar forms of Gastropoda have been found here. 



Stratum c. 



Liitterhorn on Faro. Low cliffs of crystalline, grayish limestone with Oriosto- 

 mata and Tryblidia. 



WialnisudJ on the northwestern shore of Farosund, hard crystalline limestone 

 replete with Cephalopoda, Gastropoda and TrimerelUv. Near to it, farther inland, is 

 a place Sandvik with the same fossils. 



Slite. The uppermost limestone beds are rich in fine shells, especially in seams 

 or vertical fissures filled with marl. Partly a breccia of small, comminuted shells. 



Sainsugn. In the extensive quarries of the limestone a great number of Cepha- 

 lopoda, Gastropoda and Lamellibranchiata are found. 



ffall. A canal near the farm of Westos has been cut through bluish, nodular 

 limestone, rich in finely preserved fossils, especially Oriostomata. 



Halts huk, Bam, Ardre and Ostergarn, Klinte, Wisby, the top of Carlso, are all 

 localities nearly resembling each other lithologically, though their fossil contents differ. 



FoUingbo, Stonoede. The limestone which is extensively quarried, varies very much 

 within short distances, being in some places coarsely crystalline with many remains 

 of crinoids, in others again of the finest texture resembling lithographic stone. The 

 last mentioned variety consists mostly of fragments of Cephalopoda, with some few 

 Gastropoda interspersed. 



Wi.sbg (Kyrkberget, Kalensqvarn). A gray, soft limestone, especially rich and 

 replete with remains of Gastropoda.
