now building. Coming westwards, there is a considerable gap. 
Tt is not found in Kemp Town Railway Station quarry; it 
reappears in the cuttings of the Brighton Railway Station, and 
runs along the Railway to Preston, and perhaps to Patcham,— 
the evidence of its presence at the latter place is, so far, incon- 
clusive. The name-fossil is not common in any part of the 
zone; it is found sparingly on the inter-tidal chalk from the 
Pumping Station to Newhaven, and in fallen blocks from 
Coombe Rock to Newhaven. There is a small urchin, Cardiaster 
pillula, restricted to the upper part of the zone; it is a safe 
guide to the zone, and can be often found in small exposures 
when the Belemnite is absent. I have not found the Belemnite 
in any of the inland exposures. Cardiaster pillula is very 
abundant in East. Hill quarry near Rottingdean. I found a 
block of flint that fell from the top of’ the cliff at the junction 
of the chalk and the Coombe Rock with fifty examples, many in 
fine condition. The half of the block is now in the Brighton 
Museum among the fossils illustrating the zones of this district. 
Another characteristic fossil of the zone is belemnitella granulatus. 
It is of a granular texture, and found in the inter-tidal chalk of 
the west end of the’ Manupites zone from Roedean Cottage to 
Rottingdean ; it is a rather rare fossil, as all the Belemnitella 
are on this coast. Pecten cretosus is found high up in the 
cliffs west of Rottingdean ; it is not common, and one of the 
most beautifully ornamented of the chalk fossils. Spondylus 
spinosus is very common throughout this zone and of large size, 
both in the chalk and flints. It attains its maximum size near 
the junction of the zone with Marsupites under Roedean Cottage. 
Spondylus dutempleanus is found rather sparingly throughout, 
is rare, in good condition, and more restricted to the upper 
part of the zone. chinocorys vulgaris, popularly known 
as the Shepherd’s Cap, is the most abundant fossil on this 
coast. It is of a smaller size than those found in the 
zone under. Sponges are abundant throughout, especially 
calcified forms, and Ventriculites, Pharetrospongia  strahani 
is fairly common in the lower part of the zone. A fine 
specimen is in the zonal illustrations. It can generally be 
found in the inter-tidal chalk between Rottingdean and the 
Pumping Station. There is another characteristic fossil, Ostrea 
lateralis, var. striata, from the upper part of the zone. It is 
small and the striations are rather faint. Cardiaster pillula and 
Terebratulina striata are found in Oyingdean quarry,—a fair 
exposure with few fossils. It has not been worked for many 
ears. 
: The next zones 3 and 4 are not usually separated. I 
have divided them from the very well defined division into 
upper and lower horizons in the Kemp Town Railway Station 
quarry, Marsupites the upper and Uintacrinus the lower part.
