NOTES ON THE FLORA OF AMERICA. 
shelly limestone containing Cardita multicostata was met with 
below, and this, I certainly think, would be “L” of the 
typical section. On one occasion I found a single block 
of stone on the line containing the following fossils :— 
Cardita multicostata, Ostrea, Pecten ccquivalvis , Protocardium 
truncation, Cardinia antiqua, Cardinia Iccvis, Astarte striato- 
sulcata (abundant), Turbo (near to nudus ), Serpulce, dc., and 
this I considered as being a part of the bed “ L.” There are 
several small “ faults” in this neighbourhood ; one not far 
from the station at By field can be traced n cross the line ; 
also part of this, or another small one, may be seen in the 
quarry near at hand. Another is to be found just by the 
side of Prior’s Marston Boad Bridge, the line of dislocation 
running N.E. by N. to S.W. by S. The beds of the Marl- 
stone and Upper Lias here have a gentle dip westward, and 
the “fault” has only had the effect of altering the dip and 
position over a space of about twenty yards. Still another 
“ fault ” is found a little beyond Byfield Pool.
