NATURAL HISTORY. 
and Murices—some of the latter genera, are pro- 
bably connected with the more recent strata, of the 
green sand or chalk flints of Milburn Down, in the 
immediate neighbourhood; but the former ones be- 
long to the rock in the fissures of which they have 
been discovered—as well as the Cardium hiberni- 
cum of Sowerby, which occurs at the same place. 
The more recent bones of quadrupeds in the caverns 
of this formation, we have elsewhere noticed, 
GREEN Sanp, The levels that have been dri- 
ven in various parts of Black Down, have enabled 
us to obtain a tulerably complete knowledge of the 
fossil remains preserved in this formation, and there 
is little doubt that those of Haldon, are of a similar 
kind and equally numerous, but as the latter hills 
have not been penetrated in the same manner, their 
is a greater difficulty in obtaining access to them ; 
upwards of 150 species of fossil Testacea, have 
been met with at the former place ; whence also, we 
have chiefly obtained our own specimens, but this 
locality being beyond the limits te which we confine 
ourselves, an enumeration of them would be out of 
place. We have met with specimens from Hal- 
don, belonging to the following genera, T'urbo— 
Murex—Terebratula—Chama— Trig onta—Pecten, 
Cucullea—Pectunculus and Nucula ; and connec- 
ted with the chalk flints Jnoceram?, and several 
Lchint; this list might doubtless be considerably 
extended, even with only our present facilities for 
research,
