222 THE HIGHEST SILURIAN" OF THE LUDLOW DISTRICT. [May I906, 



Church-Hill Quarry, Leintwardine, Monograptus leintwardinensis y 

 which there occurs in abundance, would now have to be regarded 

 as the characteristic graptolite of the basal beds of the Aymestry 

 Limestone. 



Dr. A. Smith Woodward expressed the hope that the Authoresses 

 would extend their researches to the Llandovery area in the Cwm 

 Dwr, where the section of Upper Ludlow and Lower Old Red 

 Sandstone was particularly clear. He anticipated that the suc- 

 cession of faunas there would prove to be the same as that in the 

 Ludlow district. 



Miss Elles, in reply, thanked the Fellows of the Society for their 

 reception of her and Miss Slater's paper, and stated, in answer to 

 Mr. Hopkinson, that they thought it advisable to consider the- 

 Leintwardine Flags as part of the Aymestry Limestone : since, 

 wherever the limestone became less pure, the fauna characteristic of 

 the Leintwardine Flags appeared.
