282 REPORT—1904. 
though their origin is very uncertain it is advisable that they should be 
recorded. 
Nore.—Mr. Morton, in his appendix to the ‘Geology of the Country 
around Liverpool,’ p. 299, gives names to six forms which he thinks 
cover all the footprints found in the district. He left a collection made 
by him of photographs, prints, and drawings of footprints, to which he 
has attached the names given by him, so that there is no difficulty in 
correlating his species with those described in this report, viz.— 
Cheirotherium storetonense = A I, II & III. 
3 minus = BI& II. 
Rhynchosaurus _articeps = Dew: 
iB ? minimus = E. 
PA ? tumidus = als 
Chelone ? subrotundus = F, 
II. Notes on the Triassic Fossils (excluding Rhetic) in the Museum of the 
Geological Survey at Jermyn Street, London. By EK. T. Newron, 
FRS., F.GS. 
The number of Triassic fossils (excluding those from the Rhetic 
deposits) preserved in this museum is not great, but some of them are of 
exceptional interest. 
Among the imperfect plant remains Volizia is the only genus that 
has been recognised, and the specimens are by no means satisfactory. 
The little crustacean Lstheria minuta is represented by examples from 
several localities. 
Marine mollusca had not been recognised in the English Trias until 
about eleven years ago, when Mr. Percy Richards discovered specimens in 
a greenish gritty clay at Shrewley, near Warwick, which he presented to 
this museum. Other examples were obtained by the late Rev. P. B. Brodie, 
which are now in the British Museum at South Kensington. The two 
series formed the basis of Mr, R. B. Newton’s paper in the ‘Journal of 
Conchology,’ vol. vii. 1894. 
The remains of fishes are fairly abundant in the Trias, Elasmobranchs 
and Ganoids being represented in this collection, the former by spines 
and teeth and the latter by more or less perfect bodies. The unique 
Dipteronotus cyphus from the Keuper of Bromsgrove calls for special 
notice, as it is the type of the genus and species which was described by 
Egerton in 1854, and the form does not appear to have been again 
met with during the fifty years that have passed since that paper was 
published. 
There is a portion of a lower jaw of a Labyrinthodon from the Lower 
Keuper of Cubbington, Warwickshire, described by Huxley in 1859 in 
the Memoirs Geol. Survey, ‘The Warwickshire Coal-field,’ p. 56, which 
may be the same species as that described by Professor Seeley in 1876 in 
the ‘Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc.’ under the name of Labyrinthodon Lavist ; 
but our specimen is somewhat larger, and Huxley thought it indicated a 
jaw two feet in length. 
The museum possesses numerous remains of Stagonolepis Robertsoni 
from the Elgin Sandstone of Lossiemouth, specimens which were described 
by Huxley in the ‘ Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc.’ for 1859 and in the Geol. 
Survey Monograph, III. : ‘ Crocodilian Remains found in the Elgin Sand- 
stones.’ These remains consist largely of hollow moulds in blocks of
