Grand Greve, Aug 16 Tuesday.
Collected during the morning in the
highest limestone within 20 feet of the Gaspe
at Little Bridge
sandstone. Did not see many fossils and those
collected are the same species as those found
on the Bare Head. Saw L. arenatus.
D2135 In the afternoon collected along the way
road to within a mile of the lith house. At
one locality in compact blue limestone found
a few large Stephersdatos. These are associated
with Pennsylvanian productus and Phyllophorus arenarius
but did not see any fossil enough to take along.
This is probably the Lehighquay porte horizon.
At the farther locality corals predominate but
they are so poor as to have little value. Probably
two species of Favosites occur here and several
species of cup corals. Sprigg's form in my view
in fact leave but two papromets. Certainly these
corals could not give rise to the regular Onm-
doya coral fauna of New York or Louisville.
Pelagyporids and gastropods are associated with
these corals. This zone is about the middle or below
the middle of the Grand Greve formation.
