abdomen retains some trace of caudal spines, but has probably been turned upside 

 down. 



In bluish-grey shaly flagstones with rusty facings. From the Lingula-flags 

 at Borth, Portmadoc. Cambridge Museum (y| T ^-). 



3. A distorted and somewhat crushed, but otherwise nearly perfect individual 

 (PI. XIII, fig. 2). The abdominal segments (eight well shown with a trace of 

 another) are turned up behind at a sharp angle with the carapace ; and the last 

 segment retains some portions of the caudal appendages.

4. The broken front part of a valve, with eight segments (and trace of a ninth) 

 lying at an angle with it, and retaining portions of the tail-spines. PI. XIII, fig. 3.

5. Carapace or left-hand valve, lying separate from seven body-segments, 

 not perfect, but retaining a remnant of one of the caudal spines. PI. XIII, fig. 4. 



In dark grey slaty mudstone, minutely micaceous. Middle Lingula-flags ; 

 Borth, Portmadoc. In the Cambridge Museum (y^y ^4<t)- 



Referred to in the ' Report Brit. Assoc' for 1888 (1889), p. 178, fig. 3. 



6. A small specimen (PL XIII, fig. 5), showing the right-hand side of a cara-

 eight body-segments, turned downwards at right angles, and retaining the full 

 number of cercopods, namely, a small central pair, flanked on each side by one 

 large and one small spine. Of these appendages the middle pair are rather 

 shorter than those in fig. 9 (magnified » 2\ diameters), but the outer pairs are of 

 about the same length.
