56 CRETACEOUS PALEONTOLOGY. 



Locality 162. — In the railroad cut just east of the village of 

 Merchantville, over which the wagon road to Moorestown is 

 carried by a bridge, the Merchantville beds are well exposed. 

 These beds are largely the typical chocolate-brown, glauconitic 

 clays of the formation, but the fauna is much inferior, both in 

 the number of species and in the perfection of preservation, to 

 that at Leno'la. The following species have been recognized:
