Extract

A small collection of fossils from the Upper Ordovician of Quarrel Hill, Girvan, made recently by Mr. James L. Begg, is remarkable for the number and character of the lamellibranchs, several of which appear to be new. Their affinities are chiefly with those of the Ordovician of the United States and are consequently of special interest.
