2 WAAGEN : CAUBONIFEROUS AMMONITES, &C. 



range north of Jabi, by the road which leads round the well of the 

 village, one finds, after having crossed a little plateau, a well bedded 

 series of thin hmestone bands, intercalated with shaly marls, the whole 

 about 20 — 25 feet in thickness, and in the upper part of this series one 

 calcareous band principally is rich in fossils. Braehiopods occui- plentifully 

 in the whole series, but Cephalopoda are only found in this thin bed. 



Some of the species, which I can easily determine from Davidson's 

 ' Braehiopods of the Salt Range,' are the following : — 



Terebratula Mimalayensis, Dav. 

 Betzia radialis, Phill. 

 Atliyris Roissyi, L'Ev. 

 „ siibtilita. Hall. 

 Spiriferina octoplicata. Sow. 

 Streptorhynclms crenistria, Phill. 



„ pectiniformis, Dav. 



Froductus costatus. Sow. 



„ Mumioldtii, Orb. 



„ longispinus, Sow. 

 Strophalosia Morrisiana, King. 



Together with these Braehiopods, and beyond any doubt coming 

 out of the same beds, I collected several specimens of three Cephalo- 

 pods, which deserve a more detailed notice. They are — 



Fhylloceras Oldhami, Waagen, n. sp. 

 Ceratites cdrbonarius, Waageu, n. sp. 

 Ooniatites primas, Waagen, n. sp. 



Above this thin-bedded calcareous series, with the fossils just men- 

 tioned, follows, at Jabi, a brown sandy dolomitic rock, rather thick- 

 bedded, in which 



Dental'mm Herculeum, Koninck, and 

 Bellerophon Jonesianum, Koninck, 



are found in abundance. The series with these two species includes, all 

 along the Salt Range, the highest beds in which Troducti and Atliyris 

 sometimes occur. Above them follow everywhere limestones and green 

 marls, with the Ceratites described by Koninck ; Bellerophon, however, 

 goes higher up into the Ceratite beds.
