Extract

The Tertiary Entomostraca (Ostracoda) of England, at first treated of in a monograph for the Palæontographical Society in 1856, were revised in the Geological Magazine, 1870, pp. 155–159. The researches of G. O. Sars and G. S. Brady, elucidating the relationships of the genera and species, gave effect in a great degree to that revision; and their continued labours have further helped us.

page 386 note 1 Mr. Clement Reid, F.G.S., has given a detailed account of the Norfolk Deposit in the “Mem. Geol. Survey; The Geology of the Country around Cromer,” 1882. The Weybourn Crag is described at pp. 11–19; and the Entomostraca from that deposit are mentioned at p. 66. See also ProfPrestwich's, Memoir on the Crag Beds of Suffolk and Norfolk; Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. vol. xxvii. p. 457, 460Google Scholar, etc.; and H. B. Woodward's “Geology of England and Wales,” 2nd edit. pp. 465–474, for Bramerton, Weybourn, etc. The Bramerton Crag is also treated of in Woodward's, H. B. “Geol. Surv. Mem.; The Geology of the Country around Norwich,” 1881, pp. 33–55, 82, etc. The list of Ostracoda from Weybourn referred to above does not agree with our determination in all respects. Thus we have not found Cythere tuberculata, Sars, nor C. pdlucida, Baird, among the specimens we have seen; and probably C. concinna, Jones, is represented by the set of the closely allied C. angulata, Sars, which we have met with. Other species in our series are not indicated in the printed list referred to.Google Scholar
