Gaspe limestone no. 5, termed by Billings "Passage beds" from the 

 "Upper Silurian" (Lower Helderberg) to the "Lower Devonian"

 Becraf t mountain fauna than C. pulchella.

A few specimens have been seen of a very small Pholidops, 

 unlike Ph. terminalis and the group of species to which it belongs, 

 with terminal beaks, but representing the more common expression of 

 the genus with subcentral beaks, represented by species which range 

 through the Paleozoic rocks from the lower Siluric into the Carbonic.
