Terrace, as does the Reedy Range Further south; survey data as to altitude is not 
available. What scems to be the same terrace has been identified again between 
Wellington and Tailem Bend on the River Murray, where accurate height data

Fig. J. Murroy Cliffs at Section 174, Hundred of Burdott, 
is available. A measured section of beds at Section 174, Hnmdred of Burdett 
(fig. 1) provides a useful starting point for discussion. From this series of beds 
asubfossil shell, Notopala wanjakalda of the family Viviparidae, was described by 
B. C. Cotton (1935). This shell is a peculiarly ribbed forni related to Paludina 
and is thought to be one characteristic of Pleistocene lacustrine beds. Sunilar 
ribbed Viwipara have been found by Fnehs (1936) in the Pleistocene of Lake 
Edward, Uganda. The heights of the freshwater beds from which the shells came, 
having been incorrectly stated in the original description, the bed was suiveyed 
down to local river level by P. 8. Ilossfeld, T, 1. Campbell, F. Fenner, B.C. Cotton 
and the writer in February, 1936; the results are shown in the present section. 
In the figure the heights above 58 feet were determined by aneroid readings and, 
therefore, may be less acenrate than in (he measured part of the section, 
The section shows a lacustrine bed associated with the present Murray 
Valley, at a general height of 50 feet (15 metres) above local river level. The
