Rh with magnificent specimens of Cyprina islandica, Mya truncata, Panopæa Faujasii, various species of Astarte, Cardita, Venus, and other shells. These beds belong to the zone d As showing the importance of keeping each stratum separate, I give two special lists of specimens collected by my friend the late Dr. Woodward during a residence of some weeks in the district. In the one case (Broom Hill) the fossils of zone d (including parts of e), and in the other (Gomer) those of zone f, thus appear as distinct groups.

At Low Gedgrave, there is a shallow pit near the farm-buildings, showing a section composed of layers of comminuted shells with irregular seams of shelly limestone and sand, in which a number of
