TABLE VIII. 

 MATTHEWS' LANDING GROUP. 



The exposure from which this collection was made is on the Alabama 

 River, about seven miles below Prairie Bluff. One other point in Wilcox 

 County, on Mr. Jones' place (S. 12, T. 12, R. 6 E.), has the identical 

 fossils. The list is made from the typical deposit. Nearly all the uni- 

 valves are remarkable for their ornamentation. Rostellarm velata, Con., 

 absent from all the other groups below the ' ' Claibornian, " appears once 

 more here.
