Sangcha Talla encamping ground. The ammonites were shown by 
E. V. Mojsisovics (I.e., p. 18) to belong to a species of Jovites closely 
allied to J. bosnensis Mojs. 
In the district of Malla Johar the presence of two exotic blocks of 
middle or upper carnic age was ascertained by A. v. Krafft. One of 
those blocks {No. 5) near Malla Kiogarh encamping ground was of very 
small size- It consisted of a massive, much altered, red limestone and 
yielded fragments of Garnites sp. ind. and of Proarcestes sp. ind. ex aff. 
ausseano Hauer. Those remains, although very scanty, are sufficient 
evidence of a carnic age. 
The second exotic block (No. 2) was discovered by A. v. Krafit one 
mile to the north-west of the Balchdhura Pass. From a bright red mar- 
ble agreeing very closely with the carnic Hallstatt limestone of the 
Roethelstein near Aussee, the richest Mesozoic fauna of the Tibetan 
facies has been obtained. It consists of the following species, which 
have been described by C. Diener ^ : —
