FENESTELLA AND POLYPORA (?) IN 
SOUTH-EASTERN QUEENSLAND. 
By A. B. Watxkom, B.Sc. 
Assistant Lecturer in Geology, the University of Queensland- 
( Read before the Royal Society of Queensland, 25th September, 
1916). 
The present note is written for the purpose of recording 
the occurrence of Fenestella and Polypora (?) in a boulder 
about eight inches in diameter in a conglomerate of Cainozoic 
age near Richmond Gap (Grady’s Gap); and also of 
calling attention to some of the questions suggested by 
its occurrence. The boulder consists of an olive-green, 
somewhat indurated shale, and contains at least two 
species of bryozoan, and in addition a few fragments of 
acrinoid stem. One of the bryozoans is certainly identical 
with Polypora (?) smithii, Eth. fils., as figured in “* Geology 
and Paleontology of Queensland,” plate 9, figs. 1-3, but 
not with plate 44, figs. 9-10 (it is indeed difficult to 
reconcile figures 9 and 10 on plate 44 with the description 
on page 219 and figures 1-3 on plate 9); the other 
bryozoan is probably Fenestella fossula, Lonsd. 
The beds in which the boulder occurs, consist of Sand- 
stone and conglomerate which undoubtedly appear to be 
interbedded with one another; Dr. Richards has 
calculated their thickness at a minimum of 20 feet, and 
their height above sea level as about 1,000 ft. They dip 
in a general south-westerly direction at a small angle 
(about 5°) and outcrop on the road at Lahey’s Cutting in 
portion 58v, Parish of Telemon.
