VOL. XV. (1) RHATIC ROCKS 39 
About three-quarters of a mile west-south-west of 
Sheriff's Lench the “ Tea-green Marls” are visible in the 
south side of the road from that hamlet to Hill; whilst a 
little over half-a-mile north-west of the former locality 
pieces of limestone identical with bed 7 at Wainlode Cliff 
were procured, and found to contain Avecula contorta, 
Schizodus Ewaldi, Pecten valoniensts, and much shell- 
débris. The same bed, similar as regards lithic structure 
and faunal contents, was observed (not zz sz¢w) a quarter 
of a mile west of Hob (or Abbot’s) Lench. In the road- 
side, about a quarter of a mile north-west of the same 
village, the following section was recorded.

This section is interesting as ae oncieree (1) that 
bed 17 of the Crowle and Dunhampstead sections is 
absent; (2) that the shales below the Bone-bed are 
diminished in thickness; and (3) that the Bone-bed- 
equivalent is also less. This Bone-bed-equivalent may 
also be observed—though not so clearly—in the west 
bank of the road running north from the bridge over the 
brook in the village. In the Worcester Museum there is an 
excellent specimen of Bone-bed from this locality, and the 
writer is indebted to Mr William H. Edwards, the Curator, 
for kindly sending it to him for examination. The verte- 
brate-remains include Acrodus minimus, Saurichthys 
acuminatus, Gyrolepis Alberti, teeth of Gyrolepis? a 
piece of skin, and other remains too fragmentary to deter- 
mine. The smaller piece of Bone-bed in the Worcester
