these banks occurs E5 and extending at
least 1/2 miles farther north before we come to
where we had collected so many Strick-
landinia in zone E7 and the base of E6.
E5 is a hard cmctoridally fracturing
limestone, A light grey clays with almost no
slate parting. The commonest fossil is
again the Oncocerous, in fact zones E3 to
E5 should be called the Oncerces beds,
The next most abundant fossils is a
Johnckertella or surfaces with Tentaculites
and Ostracoda. Also secured thin cuteri
Acostus cretice and Bogrus picked up a
very large and fine Calymena rosuta.
Here we also rarely meets with a
Farrsite.
Richardson constantly mentions fossils
that I do not find in the reign, some of
which I am certain are loose and from
the moronic nature covering this part of
Anticosti. I saw no Stricklandinia in any
of threes of zone 3-5.
