Mr. ^^'al(•()tt spi'aUs of this as a L(i\v«*r Cainltrian (/. i. I'ara- 
doxidt's iK'ds) typi'. and says it is related to L tnnisni rii (of tin* 
St. John <;i-oup) and /> smjittiilis (of the .^Ienevian group). The 
resonihlance to the St. John species, wliieh ranges from ])i\ . 1 l>

This form may lie compared with Ortlilsiim itillim of the I'ar- 
adoxides lu'ds of Spain, and with O. (r. /'. ) hlrhsl of the St. John 
group. The latter is found in Div. 1. r. I.

This agrees in form with an undi'seiil»e(l specie> from l)iv. 1 
A. J of the St. John group. 
With<mt going into the comiiarison of other speeii's of the 
Washington county fauna, which also reseml)le forms of the 
I'aradoxides lieds. it appears to the writer that tliose already 
mentioned jjrove a very close alliance lietwet-n the Washington 
county fauna, and that at the l)ase of the Paradoxi<les beds: and 
hint at the [irobable cotemporaneous or nearly cotemporaneous 
existence of tlu' two faunas: not in the >anie area i)erhaps. but 
in districts not very far remote from each othei'. 
As already remarked the partial independenci' of the fauna 
with (). iisiip/ii>i)/cs from that with O. f/iinn/isniii points to a dif- 
ference of age between them. These are points which future 
investigation will determine.
