was brought to the surface, and shows in addition to the fossils 

 mentioned below well preserved specimens of Panenka 

 lincklaeni. For material from this locality I am indebted 

 to Miss I. C. Strickler of Buffalo. 



Still another outcrop of this bed has been observed on the left 

 bank of Ellicott creek near Wende station. Orthoceras 

 exile is a common fossil at this place. 



The species identified from this bed at Lancaster are : 



Chonetes mucronatus Hall cc 



Strophalosia truncata (HalT) cc 



Liorhynchus limitare (Vanuxem) c 



Ambocoelia nana Orabau cc 



Meristella meta Hall rr 



Orthoceras exile Hall rr 



II 6 inches. This bed is made up of large concretions which 

 are confluent or separated by small masses of calcareous shale 

 only. The limestone of which the concretions are composed is 

 similar to that of bed I, but is finer grained and breaks with a 

 conchoidal fracture. Fossils are less numerous than in bed I, 

 there being fewer individuals but many more species. Stroph- 

 alosia truncata and Ambocoelia nana are slightly 

 larger than the same species in the underlying bed. The list of 

 fossils is as follows : 



Chonetes mucronatus Hall c 



C. scitulus Hall rr 



Strophalosia truncata (Hall) cc 



Productella dumosa Hall r 



Liorhynchus limitare (Vanuxem) cc 



Ambocoelia nana Orabau cc
