found here. Limuloides optatus occur in the upper 
beds, associated with minute Graptolites, and also 
Proetus Stokesii , Phacops Stokesii, Calymene tuberculosa , 
and the Entomostracean, Entomis taberosa. A species 
of Eurypterus is found here, several of which have been 
obtained nearly entire ; also large portions of Pterygotus 
punctatus, and P. arcuatus. Here also where first 
found Lower Ludlow Encrinites , many species of which 
have been procured, and also the first starfish from that 
formation, many of them most beautifully preserved. 
Several of the latter have been named by Mr. Salter, 
but there are many not vet so honoured. The following 
is a list of the named species \~Protaster Miltonic 
P. Leptosoma, P. vermiformis , P anguilla, Palcecoma 
Marstoni , Colvini, and cygnipes, Rhopalocoma pyrotech- 
nica , Palceodiscus ferox, Splicer aster pomum, Palastcerina 
primceva, and Palceaster Una . There is also fonnd there 
Ceratiocaris robustus , leptodactylus , cassia , Murchisonia , i 
gigas, and princeps , many different species of Fucoids, 
and I found one specimen of a very rare shell, Macro- 
cheilus elongata . Is not this a glorious list of fossils, 
all found in one small quarry ? Yet, besides these, 
there are many others, and new species are being i 
discovered frequently. The neighbourhood of Leintwar- 
dine is a most fertile field for fossil collecting, as there 
are a great number of extensive sections of rock 
exposed near to the village, all of them full of most 
interesting remains. 
The last locality I shall mention is near to Pedwar- 
dine, where there is an upheaval of the upper Lingula 
flags, containing Dictyonema sociale , and a minute J 
Lingulella . 
This ride finishes my brief description of the geologi¬ 
cal localities best worth examining in the different rides 
and walks round Ludlow. I have, I trust, mentioned 
all the best places; but as the space allowed me is very
