Description of the Beds and their Fossil Contents. 



The best preserved and most abundant fossils near Tramore occur 

 in three principal sets of exposures, but the beds represented in those 

 localities are by no means all on the same horizon. 



1. Taking the localities in order from east to west, we begin with 

 the most easterl}'^ ones in the townlands of Quillia and Castletown. 

 On the one-inch Geological Survey Map, Sheet 179, there is marked in 

 about a mile east of the Ti-amore- Waterford Eailway a sinuous band 

 of limestone. The rock consists of a greyish calcareous sandstone, 

 weathering to a brownish-yellow colour, and containing a large
