and is better exposed on the left bank. The strata dip north-east-by-north, at 
about 15°. The sequence of strata on the left bank is the following (in descend¬ 
ing order) :— 
a. Ijjiporinost sandstones. 
t). Yellowish-brownish-grey sandy shales. 
c. Grey earthy-sandy shales with plants. 
d. A band of very fine earthy carbonaceous brownish-black shales with 
plants. They contain also much pyrites. 
e. The coal seam about 2 to 3 feet thick. 
/. Shales and sandstones partly already in the river. 
On the right bank there appears under these sandstones another bed of 
carbonaceous shales without coal. Possils occur in the upper part of both these 
outcrops. 
On the right bank I found in the grey sandy shales— 
Olossopferis, fragmentary, and 
Koggeraihiopsis {llislopi ?), fragments. 
On the left bank wei’e found— 
a. In the black shale immediately above the seam— 
Glossopteri.'!, fragments. 
OangamopteHs and SfoggeratMopsis. 
b. In the sandy grey shales above— 
JHqu!setaceous stalk. 
Glossopieris eommums. 
Gangamopferis ct/chpferoides, Fstm., several specimens. 
NSggerathiopsis hislopi. 
Some small seeds (Carpolithes). 
Here, therefore, were found moi-e fossils than in the Mardanpur outcrops, and 
they perhaps indicate the horizon of the Karharbari beds. 
From here I went to see the outcrops in the Tiiwa river near Terani (on the 
Temni outcrops. “‘’P’ people called Temru) ; no fossils were 
found in the shales, which appeared to me to have a 
resemblance to Talehir shales ; they perhaps represent, as Mr. Medlicott (1. c., 
p. 80) suggests, the outcrops at Kotmi. 
In the outci'ops north of Shapur in the Suki river before it falls into the 
„ ^ c. 1 ■ Tawa river, only very few and fragmentary fossils were 
Outcrops m the Snki. r i n i i j r i i i 
tound. In tno lower beds ot carbonaceous shales, 
1 found fragments of Equisetaceous stalks and of Ndggerathiopsis, and in the upper 
one a fragment of NbggcratJiiopsis. The beds dip to north-east-by-north at 10°. 
There is no direct indication for a comparison of these outcrojis with any of 
the others, the fossils being so very scarce, except perhaps from the position with 
the outcrops in the Bhoura naddi (near Sonada).
