It is hoped that the specimens listed above, now that they have 

 been subjected to a careful revision, will be useful to students of the 

 Inferior Oolite and Fullers' Earth of the neighbourhood of Doulting. 

 Of course there are gaps, but before long it is probable that many of 

 them will be made good. The examination of the collection has 

 emphasized the correctness of the correlation of the Doulting Beds 

 with the Clypeus-G:xxt of the Mid-Cotteswolds, the majority of the 

 fossils being identical in form and appearance. 



Among the ammonites are specimens indicative of Sauzei^ Blagdeni, 

 and niortensis hemerse, as well as Garantiance. The Conglomerate- 

 Bed, of course, is of Garantiance hemera, and there is little doubt — 

 judging by the matrices of some of the specimens — that some of the 

 ammonites indicative of Blagdeni and niortensis hemerse were remanie 

 in it — those indicative of niortensis in particular. But the same 

 cannot be said about the Otoites Sauzei. Leaving this out of con- 

 sideration, what the ammonites seem to indicate is the destruction of 

 at least deposits of Blagdeni and niortensis dates during the "Bajocian 

 Denudation."
