The micro-fauna of the Upper Coral-Bed, as revealed by 
Mr Upton’s painstaking researches, is as follows :— 
BRACHIOPODA FORAMINIFERA (contd.) 
Spiriferina oolitica, Moore Spirillina helvetica, Kubler and 
Zellania Davidsoni, Moore Zwing]

Marginulina costata, Batsch Craticula sp. 
M. Roemeri, Reuss Cytherella cf. fullonica, Jones 
Frondicularia intumescens, Born.  Polycope sp. 
The feature of this section is the Upper Coral-Bed, but 
its development is very sporadic, and in the neighbourhood 
of Stroud its geographical distribution is inconsiderable. 
It is absent from the Mount-Surat and “The Fort” 
Quarries: quarries on the same hill as the Mount-Vernon 
Quarry.
