them readily to split. Some very perfect Phragmoceras 
were procured here by the late Mr. H. Pardoe. Several 
, 3 f them are in the Ludlow Museum, to which he so 
r liberally contributed his choicest specimens. From 
, this locality may be obtained the following fossils, with 
j many other common kinds:— Ischadites Knoigii , Phacops 
x oaudatus , Euomphalus carinatus , P. alatus , Pleuroto - 
maria undata , Murchisonia Lloydii , Lituites giganteus, 
j Cardiola striata , C. interrupted, Pterinea retrojlexa , P. 
Sowerbyi, Avicula mira , Pentamerus galeatus, Phragm- 
j oceras ventricosum , pyriformis, and compressum , and 
t very large portions of Orthoceras ibex , angulatum and 
l filosum. 
In a quarry on the side of the Old Road, about half 
a mile from Mocktree, the same beds are exposed, 
containing the same organisms that were described as 
loccuring at the top of the Aymestry limestone quarry; 
I but instead of occupying the summit of the rock, they 
I consist of three bands of different thickness placed 
, between thick masses of limestone full qf Pentamerus 
I Knightii and large corals. The most prolific layer is 
, the uppermost one, in which a small Ceratiocaris occurs 
pretty plentifully, and a species of Lichas. 
[ Nearly on the summit of Church Hill, and imme- 
diately facing Leintwardine, are several lower Ludlow 
quarries close together. The most prolific one is the 
uppermost, and nearest to the hedge, from whence 
, i starfish were first procured, and also where they occur 
t in the greatest abundance. The beds are here very 
I barren, except in particular layers, the starfish and 
, other fossils lying in bands, very seldom with any 
intermixture of the species. I will now mention most 
of the fossils that have been found in this most 
interesting locality. 
The oldest known fish swam in Churchill Bay, two 
or three specimens of Pteraspis Ludensis having been
