Extract

The Upper Llandeilo Rocks of the South of Scotland have long been known to yield graptolites in great profusion, few other forms of animal life being recognised as occuring in them. Having, this summer, had an opportunity of examining the graptolite-shales of Garple Linn, near Moffat, I was struck with the occurrence in them of numerous bodies, differing from the graptolites in form, though resembling them in mineral texture.
