BY G. W. SHRUBSOLE, F.G.S. 
ACCAMMINA CARTERI (Brady) was first found by 
Master W. SHEPHEARD in road-metal near Chester, and 
was recognised and named by Mr. Sippaty. In a visit to the 
Quarry of the Minera Lime Company, with Mr. Sippau1, the 
author observed a band of black limestone, two or three feet in 
thickness, entirely made up of the above-mentioned Forami- 
nifer, and containing less than 1 per cent. of matter insoluble 
in acid. This bed occurs near the base of the Carboniferous 
Limestone.
