"As far as can be seen there is one sharp break between the
Cognmans and Marlins but the faunas are very dissimilar.
There must be here an hiatus seen in the different faunas
and the lithic conditions. The eye fails to see the physical
line that separates the two.
The Tentaculite, Rondart and Crestlie represent the
basal series here, but the higher beds elsewhere (Marlins)
are not here. This shows the extent of the break.
