VI.—On the Microscopic Contents of a Sample of Bracklesham Clay from Lee-on-Solent, Hampshire

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

In 1862, Professor T. Rupert Jones published some notes on a careful microscopical examination of five samples of clay from the Bracklesham beds of Bracklesham, Selsea, and the Isle of Wight (?). This paper gave a good idea of the systematic methods which could be employed in working over a sample of fossiliferous material, especially when rich in microzoa, and the results of which are often of great use to geologists and palæontologists.
