We shall have therefore no difficulty in identifying this bed wher- 
ever we meet it, as the Bryozoa make a great show and immediately 
attract attention. The coarse granular limestone is unlike that of 
the other beds we shall see hereafter; the rich brown shales are also 
peculiar to the Zeeawan bed, and even the position close over the 
glaring white quartzite would assist us, if necessary.
