Spend the day along the sea cliffs at
Rosie Cove. Fossils are neither abundant
nor good in Beds 1 and 2 of Logans section.
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..
Then the Byspidula here is galata while at
Dalhousie it is the pseudogalata associated
with Leptaenica concern. If the Rosie's
cove beds 1 and 2 are the equivalent of the
lower part of the Dalhousie section than bed 3
which is unfossiliferous here must be the
equivalent of the higher Dalhousie beds.
However in what way one turns to make
