Rgus first trying them.
From this book to the next one more it may
be p[?] t[h]at all nothing can be seen. We have
purued now on all thebes of E 9-E8 but I saw
but four Stricklandinia lirata unless I mistate
it for the Pentamerus Moryus which is common
here.
Between the third and fourth book from
the left we came up with the Stricklandinia
[kids?]
Richardsons E6 and E7. These kids are
made up of three Pentamends in most cases
all are marked and written and filed together
either or many dates. Irregularly one finds
pockets of them in their habit of growth,
heads down with the anterior ends of valves
up. This for this reason that a few of the
large ones are perfect. Only when one lies flat
on the bedding is it apt to be entire, but be-
cause the shells are so thin all are once
a less distorted. With the Stricklandinias
occur Ostiocardia and nearly a Stomatodoma,
of Tr
one for its diameter and rather of all a
Holgallus (saw but one specimen up side down.)
