Hind — Notes on the Homotaxial Equivalents, ^^c. 99 



The specimens obtained by the Geological Survey at Coor spa 

 well have been kindly lent to me for examination ; and the following 

 species occur there : — 



Fosidoniella Icevis. Orthoceras ^norrisianum. 



P. minor. Glyphioceras reticulatum. 



Fterinopecten papyraceus. G. JDavisi. 



The sequence west of the Carboniferous Limestone border at 

 Corofin and Ennis corresponds to that in the coast section between 

 Fishergate and Liscannor, the contour of Slieve Callan, which 

 occupies the centre of County Clare, being very characteristic of the 

 shales and grits, and very similar to that of the Cliffs of Moher 

 viewed from the north-east. 



The District of Kilhee. — Here the beds dip at higher angles than in 

 the north of the county, and are thrown up into basins and traversed 

 by faults of small throw. 



The coast north and south of Kilkee affords a fine section of the 

 olive grits and shales. Marine bands are to be seen at the following 

 places. A thick bed of black shale with Goniatites, which I did not find, 

 is said to occur about three-quarters of a mile north-west of Loughglass. 

 Half a mile due south of Loughglass, where the cliff path crosses a 

 stream, is a section commenced in the stream and continued in the 

 cliff. In this section occurs a marine band one foot above a bed of 

 grit with 



Glyphioceras reticulatum. Loxonema strigillatum. 



Nuculana stilla. Euphemus TJrei. 



Fterinopecten papyraceus. Lingula mytiloides. 



Ftychomphalus pisum. Productus semireticulatus. 



P. interstrialis. 



This bed probably is identical with the lower marine band at the 

 PuflSng Hole, west of Kilkee. Grits and flags are well exposed west of 

 Kilkee strand, from Duggerna Rock to Knockroe Point ; and a quarry 

 above the cliffs shows the shaley grits, slabs of which are covered by 

 peculiar tracks, evidently the same series which occurs between 

 Liscannor and the Cliffs of Moher. Still further east in the Puffing 

 Hole, and around the headlands west of this spot, two marine 

 bands can be traced. The lower occurs immediately above a well- 

 marked grit-band, and contains teeth of Polyrhizodus, Crinoids, and 

 Glyphioceras reticulatum. (PI. iv., fig. 1.)
