104 POMPECKJ. JURASSIC FAUNA OF CAPE FLORA. [norw. POL. EXP. 



with the originals of Oppel^ from the Bathonian of Wilrttemberg, and with 

 .several specimens of B. Beyrichi 0pp. from Gnaszyn, near Gzenstochau in Po- 

 land, which are now before me. The state of preservation, however, does not 

 suffice for the identification of the pieces from Cape Flora with B. Beyrichi, 

 nor to class them as decidedly different from that species. 



Among the "Belemnites sp." which Newton (1. c. p. 502) records from 

 'Svest of Elmwood", "the third form" ("cylindrical, concentrically radiated, and 

 with comparatively acute apex") most probably belongs to our species. 



Most of the pieces of Belemnites sp. (of. Beyrichi Oppel) were found along 

 with Pseudomonotis Jacksoni, loose, weathered out of the rock, on August 

 2ad, 1896, at a height of about 23 — 33 ft. above sea-level. The species, more- 

 over, lie, together with Pseudomonotis Jacksoni, embedded in gray, finely- 

 grained sandy marl (Aug. 2nd, 1896, 23 — 33 ft.). Fragments and sections, cor- 

 re.sponding to our .species, may also be seen, as also Lingula Beani Phill. and 

 Discina reflexa Sow. sp., in light gray, soft marl occurring together with 

 the hard sandy marl NNW. of Elmwood. 



A few loose fragments of Belemnites were also found together with Be- 

 lemnites sp. (of Beyrichi 0pp.), showing traces of grooves and somewhat eccen- 

 tric radiation, and perhaps allied to Belemnites canaliculatus Schloth. They 

 are pieces which probably belong to the other fragments noted by Newton 

 (I. c. p. 502), from "west of Elmwood". 



Yet another small fragment is worthy of attention, as being that of a 



Belemnites sp. indet. 2. 

 PI. I. fig. 24. 



Found loose ; statement of locality, date and height wanting. The piece 

 shows an elliptical section. The dorso-ventral axis is shorter than the width 

 of the roslrum. The beginning of the alveole is somewhat eccentric, near 

 the ventral side (fig. 24c). Any determination of the piece appears to be 

 impossible. 



' The figure which agi-ees best with Oppel's originals of B. Beyrichi is the one which 

 Quenstedt gives in "Jura" of his B. canaliculatus gracilis.
