TRIASSIC SYSTEM 79 
A little higher in the series a band of nodular limestone with gray 
shales — subdivision (4) — contains ammontes 
Tropites be s. chiefly belonging to the genus Tropites. The 
fossils are rare and badly preserved, but the following forms were 
recognised by Dr. von Krafft : — 
Tropitei cf. subbullatus, v. Hauer. 
„ cf. discobullatus, Mojs. 
„ cf. fusobiillatits, Mojs. 
„ cf. torquillus, Mojs. 
Juvavites aff. bacchiis, Mojs. 
„ sp. ind cf. J. bacchus, Mojs. 
Sagenites sp. aff. erittaceus, Dittmar. 
„ n. sp. aff. herbichi, Mojs. 
Sandlingites n. sp. 
Sirenites n. sp. 
(?) Heraclites sp. 
Clydonautilus griesbachi, Mojs. 
Nautilus sp. 
This horizon presumably corresponds to the " Tropites limestone " 
of Kal^pani, which is, according to von Mojsisovics, the equivalent of 
the *' zone of Tropites subbullatus " of the Mediterranean Province.^ 
The nodular limestone with Tropites is overlain by a band of dark, 
splintery limestone about 200 feet thick, with beds of calcareous shale ; 
it has yielded few fossils, but some specimens of Parajuvavites n. sp. 
were found by Dr. von Krafft at about 70 feet above the Tropites 
horizon. One specimen of the same species was found loose on the 
Tropites beds, and as Dr. von Krafft considered it improbable that 
under the existing circumstances it could have rolled down from a 
higher horizon, he assumed that it belonged to the horizon at which it 
was found and consequently included the upper beds, in which the 
species occurs, in the Tropites beds. 
The age of the next overlying bed — (6) the dolomitic limestone — 
Dolomite doubtful, it having yielded few fossils, and 
those very badly preserved and fragmentary ;
