Asaphnsregionens omfattning i sydöstra Skåne och på Boinholm 49 



Dark grey crystalline limestone, witli brachiopods 0.24 in. 



Ampijx limestone (limestone with Ampyx rostratus Sars): dark grey siliciferous 



limestone (column 5) 0.15 m. 



Grey limestone (without fossils), rich in mica 0.09 m. 



Dark grey phosphoritic and sandy shale 0.02 m. 



Light grey to greenish-grey, often micaceous, phosphoritic, and pyritiferous 

 soft shales, free from fossils; in the upper and middle portion 

 were found 9 banks, from 0.02 to 0.13 m. thick, of hard dark 

 grey siliciferous shales, with brachiopods — Orthis shales; in the 

 middle and lower portion there were 12 layers, O.oi — 0.04 m. thick, 

 of dark to blackish-grey shales, in most cases phosphoritic, with 

 ostracods and brachiopods; in the lower portion there were 4 layers, 

 0.01- — 0.08 m. thick, of light grey clay, somewhat phosphoritic and 

 pyritiferous. (For the fossils in the Orthis shales and the shale- 

 bands see column 4). The soft shales and the layers contained in 

 them have a total thickness ol: 3.30 m. 



The Coscinorrhinus-0one or the zone of Trinucleus coscinorrhinus Ang. 

 (column 3) consists of : — Dark grey shales, usually with pyritic 

 concretions, and here and there somewhat phosphoritic; in the lower 



portion with fossil fragments [Trin. cose, etc.) (0.30 m.). Dark grey 

 phosphoritic and pyritiferous limestones (with fossils — Trin. cose, 

 Ampyx rostrahis Sars, etc.) (0.28 ni.) 0.58 m. 



Conglomerate: phosphoritic balls (11.74 Vo phosphoric acid), embedded in 



pyritiferous limestone 0.05 m. 



Transitional layers: — Dark grey phosphoritic shale (O.io m.) Dark grey 



impure shaly limestone (0.03 m.) 0.13 m. 



North-west of Moberg's locality B III: 3 at Tosterup I made a cutting in 



which among other things I found a dark grey shale which, in addition to Dicra- 



nograptiis Clingani Carr., contained Lasiograptus bimucronatus Hall, a fossil which 

 is otherwise considered to be characteristic of the zone of Nemagraptus gracilis Hall. 



At Bollerup there was found after excavation (-|- on the map p. 28, or 

 625 m. south-west of the corps de logis) typical Orthis shale, light grey soft shales, 

 and dark grey shales corresponding to a portion of the Tommarp section. 



At Vasagaard one of my operations was to dig a well (c in the sketch- 

 map, p. 30) and study more closely the lower portion of Hadding's ^ section in the 

 Middle Dicellograptus beds (a in the sketch-map.) The following section was thus 



obtained : 



The zone of Glimacograptus rugosus Tullb 0,88 m. 



Greenish-grey to bluish-green shales (transitional layer) 0,06 » 



Conglomerate (phosphoritic balls in green sandy shale) 0,03 »
