Parish of Wonthaggi East. 
This rock, judging from its structure and composition, is m all pro¬ 
bability palaeozoic. It is a greenish, muddy, micaceous sandstone, having 
a very steep dip (55 0 ). The two surfaces of the core bear the impression 
of a brachiopod fragment, which is finely, radiately striate, and with a 
median sinus; from its imperfect condition, however, it is impossible to 
indicate even the genus.

A PoLYZOAL AND FORAMIN1FERAL LIMESTONE FROM CAPE SCHANCK. 
The specimen now described is of special interest for two reasons. 
Firstly, it shows the occurrence of a polyzoal limestone containing the 
important foraminiferal genus Lepidocyclina in a . new locality; and 
secondly, it affords conclusive evidence of the affinity of the polyzoal 
limestone of Flinders with the Batesford Lepidocyclina limestones in the 
Geelong area. The rocks from all three localities are therefore referable 
to the polyzoal phase of the Janjukian. 
The present sample was discovered and collected by Mr. R. A. Keble. 
and its precise locality is 1 mile N.W. of the junction of the Lighthouse and 
Sorrento roads, at the back of Cape Schanck. This limestone occurs as 
a small patch, resting on the older basalt in a similar manner to the 
Flinders limestone.
