Streptolasma canadensis
Gyospira concinnatissima; large burnt or large so
B. described by James. Lord specimen m a slab.
A. caparis one m a egg of a Streptolasma.
The material appears fine good and abundant.
Aspidella terranovica.
On fresh fracture there are mere films of
concentric lines crossed by the finest kind
of radial lines that start from a central
point. Originally they were pretty circular
but are now more or less drawn out.
To me they look like concentric growths
and are due to diagenetic causes.
As weathered specimens some of the con-
centric lines become more conspicuous than
others. The radial lines remain about the same
due to them being in the stone as original physical
characters.
