On the south side of the bay the Silurian series previously described 
in this paper is terminated by 50 feet or more of Devonian limestones. 
These are dark steel-gray in color, somewhat arenaceous, and lie in 
strata 1 to 4 feet thick. These higher beds, which are largely covered 
at high tide, furnished the following species: 
Orbiculoidea sp. Goniophora sp. 
Chonetes cf. verneuile Barr. Pterinea sp. 
Camarotoechia cf. billingsi Hall. Pterinopecten sp. 
Leptostrophia n. sp. Schizodus sp. 
Stropheodonta sp. Goniatites sp. 
Stropheodonta stephani Barr. Orthoceras sp. I. 
Stropheodonta cf. fugax (Barr). Orthoceras sp. 2 
Pentamarella ? sp. Bellerophon sp. 
Reticularia ? sp. 
Schizophoria sp. 
Atrypa reticularis 
Naticopsis sp. 
Oriostoma sp. 
‘Leperditia sp. 
Cypricardinia ? sp. Dalmanites sp. 
Cypricardinia contexta Barr. Proetus romanooski (Tsch.) 
This fauna has but little resemblance to any of the Devonian 
faunas of eastern America. Its nearest faunal equivalents are to be 
found in the Devonian of central Europe and Russia. Two of the 
species occur in Etage F of Barrande’s Bohemian section. One of 
the trilobites which occur abundantly in this fauna appears to be 
identical with species described by Tschernyschew from the Ural 
Mountains as Dechenella romanooski. The presence of such forms as 
Gontophora sp., Gontatites sp., and Proetus romanooskt, together with 
the general aspect of the fauna, points very clearly to its Middle 
Devonian age. 
In the Freshwater Bay section igneous beds appear to occupy the 
entire upper Devonian interval. At Klawack (14), on the west coast of 
Prince of Wales Island, however, Mr. C. W. Wright made a small 
collection of fossils which show the presence of an Upper Devonian 
fauna in the southern part of the southeast Alaskan district. It con- 
tains Zaphrentis sp., Productella hallana Walcott, and S pirijer anos- 
soft Vern. ‘The two latter are represented by a number of specimens, 
and seem to be the most abundant fossils at the locality. Sp. anos- 
soft is representative of the Ural Mountains fauna, but is closely 
related to Spirijer hungerjordi of the Iowa Devonian. P. hallana
