The guide fossil is Byspidula galata and some of its associates are Strophonella punctilipa, Leptaena rhomboidalis, Atrypa reticularis. Favosites and cup corals apparently the same as at Dalhousie and Strometown. Most of the Pelecypoda are from Bed 2. In some ways this fauna reminds of Dalhousie but it is rather odd that here the common shell for 3 these beds is absent..

However in what way one turns to make
