III.—Contributions to the Palæontology of the Yorkshire Oolites

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

Bibliography, etc.—Phillips's type was evidently a cast from the Kelloway Rock, of Hackness, near Scarborough. I have not been able to identify the original, which was supplied by Bean. The figure, however, plainly shows it to have been a cast of a good-sized discoidal shell, and there are specimens now in the Bean Collection at the British Museum not unlike it.

page 155 note 1 There is nothing absolutely exceptional in the reappearance of Liassic forms in the Inferior Oolite. We have a remarkable instance of this in the presence of large specimens of Ammonites fimbriatus in the Humphresianus-bed Sit Oborne, near Sherborne. In that case there can be no doubt that a few individuals of Am. fimbriatus lived to witness the reign of the coronati.

page 155 note 2 There are two species of Pleurotomaria, in addition to the four already detailed by me, included in the list of the “ Geology of Yorkshire ” (3rd ed. p. 259), of whose title to be regarded as Yorkshire fossils 1 can find no evidence. These are:

Pleurotomaria bicarinata, Sow., t. 221. Calc. Grit, Gristhorpe.

Pleurotomaria cingulata, Phil. Calc. Grit, Scarborough.

page 158 note 1 I have seen in some collection a large, imperfectly preserved Patella from the Dogger of the interior, which, as far as I can remember, presented some resemblance to P. Tessonii, Desl. Should I again come across this specimen, it may be added to the list.
