During the year 1871, in connexion with his duties upon the Geological Survey of Sweden, Linnarsson made a careful study of the Lower Palaeozoic strata of Dalarne and Jemtland, publishing the fruits of his observations in the following year. Dalarne had been already most successfully investigated by Dr. Sven. Törnquist; but Linnarsson, familiar with details of the better known succession in Westrogothia, was enabled to throw much new light upon the crumpled and shattered strata of this region.
