270 NOTES. 
NOTE BY THE REY. W. S. SYMONDS. 
A Pterichthys has been discovered by Mr. Baxter of Worcester 
in the yellow sandstone of the Clee Hill district, Salop. This 
yellow sandstone is below the carboniferous limestone of the 
Clees, and is the equivalent of the Cyclopterus Hibernicus sand- 
stones of Ireland and the Dura Den beds of Scotland. The Pter- 
ichthys has not before been discovered in England, and is there- 
fore an important addition to the Upper Old Red fossils of Eng- 
land. A new species of Eurypterus has also been described by 
the Rev. W. S. Symonds, in the “ Edinburgh New Philosophical 
Journal,” October 1857, from the Upper Cornstones of Hereford- 
shire. apd a sea Sips jaa
