W REPORT OF THE STATE PALEONTOLOGIST I9O3 23 1 



K48 Mostly concealed strata but of lithic characters similar to 



the preceding. Onondaga 24 feet 



K49 Strata rather shaly, mostly concealed. Onondaga.. . 15 feet 

 K50 A rather heavy bedded gray limestone. One layer near the 

 middle is quite fossiliferous. This outcrops along the Newburg 

 turnpike, opposite the barn of Mr Ludwig Laux ; the outcrop is very 

 noticeable from the great abundance of Atrypa reticularis 

 (Linn.) . Onondaga 10 feet

 Phacops rana (Green) r 



4 Ceratopora sp. R 

 8 Favosites sp. R 

 23 Atrypa reticularis (Linn.) C 



K51 Cherty, exceedingly closely grained limestone, in beds 3 to 

 inches thick. The chert is most abundant in 2 to 6 inch bands 

 •parallel to the bedding but is found also scattered irregularly 

 throughout all the beds. The chert does not occupy a bed to the 

 ■exclusion of the limestone, as is usually the case in the New Scot- 

 land and Oriskany, but occurs in very irregular masses through it; 

 this gives the rock when weathered an exceedingly rough appear- 

 ■ance and at times it is pitted and amygdaloidal like. This rock is 

 'exposed for only about 600 feet along the Newburg turnpike, on the 

 northeast side of the road, and rises in places almost on the dip to 

 a hight of 30 to 50 feet. Onondaga 7 feet 



Section L 



Section L begins at the foot of an old limestone quarry^ about 150 

 rods northeast of section K. 



Lr Strata covered from the marsh to the first rock outcrop at the 

 base of an old quarry. Lower New Scotland and Upper New Scot- 

 land 170 feet 



L2 A dense, finely grained, bluish gray limestone. The lower 

 and upper layers are quite shaly and show light and dark laminae. 

 No chert was noticed. Fossils were abundant, in certain beds. As 

 is usually the case, few or no fossils were found in the beds show- 

 ing the light and dark laminae, except in the very lowest band, 

 l^pper New Scotland 5 feet 



^This is doubtless the Upper Quarry of Barrett from which he gave the 

 name "Upper Quarry stone" to the Becraft. Am. Jour. Sci. 3, 13:386.
