III.—Note on a Find of Homalonotus in Red Beds at Torquay

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

This fine specimen, which has been so faithfully rendered in two views by Miss G. M. Woodward, was thund by me, together with portions of other individuals of the genus, in some red finely-sandy or silty beds, interstratified with grits, in the Cutting of the new road on the eastern side of Lincombe Hill at Torquay. The beds are traversed by a coarse cleavage dipping south, which usually ignores the hard grit bands. We may call them for the present the “Lincombe, Warberry, and Smuggler's Cove grits,” and their probable equivalents will be considered shortly.
