NO. I CAMBRIAN FAUNAS OF EASTERN ASIA II 



The fauna from Wang-tschuang occurs at three horizons. It is 

 listed by Doctor Lorenz as follows:^ 

 A lower layer with (a) : Eighty meters higher up, a layer with 



Anomocare spcciosiim Lorenz (&) : 



Bathytiriscus asiaticus Lorenz Teinistion ( ?) sp. 



Agnostus fallax lAnndLXSson Drepaniira (?) sp. 



Agnostus parvifrons latelimhaHis At 80 meters above, an upper layer has 

 Lorenz {c) : 



Acrothcle granulata Linnarsson Shantungia buchrttckeri Lorenz 



Liostracus lafus Lorenz 



I have identified the above-Hsted fossils as follows : 



(a) Anomocare speciosum Lorenz := Anomocarella speciosa (Lorenz) 



Bathyurisciis asiaticus Lorenz = Dolichometopus dcois Walcott 



Agnostus fallax Linnarsson = A. chinensis Dames 



Agnostus parvifrons latelimbatus 



Lorenz = A. latelimbatus (Lorenz) 



Acrothele granulata Linnarsson = Acrothele matthezvi eryx Walcott 



(b) Teinistion (?) sp = Damesella cf. blackzuelderi Walcott 



Drepanura (?) sp = Damesella cf. blackzuelderi Walcott 



(c) Shantungia buchruckeri Lorenz =z Chuangia nitida W'alcott 



Liostracus latus Lorenz = L. latus Lorenz 



By comparison with the sections of Messrs. Willis and Blackwel- 

 der fauna (a) is located in the lower portion of the Kiu-lung group 

 at about the same horizon as the fauna from Lai-wu ; fauna (b) 

 represents the zone of Damesella hlackwelderi Walcott, which occurs 

 in the central part of the Kiu-lung group; and fauna {c), or the 

 upper fauna, may be assigned to the upper limestone of the Kiu-lung 

 group, where the Upper Cambi-ian fauna is well developed." 



At the locality of Tai-shan south of Tsi-nan Doctor Lorenz found 

 fragments of a trilobite that he named Lioparia hlautoeides, which 

 I have identified as Anomocarella bands Walcott, which occurs near 

 the summit of the Upper Cambrian Ch'au-mi-tien limestone. 



At the locality of Tsing-tshou-f u he reports the following :' 



Lioparia latelimbata (Dames) Obolella nitida n. sp.^ 



Shantungia crassa n. g. and sp. Orthis sp. 



A not closely definable brachiopod Acrothele sp.
