Extract

In 1900 Mr. R. Bullen Newton described the casts and impressions of some lamellibranch shells, in blocks of fossiliferous sandstone from Kuala Lipis, Pahang.1 On account of the prevalence of specimens which he assigned to the genus Myophoria, Mr. Newton called the rock “Myophorian Sandstone”. Amongst other species identified by Mr. Newton Chlamys valoniensis has a wide distribution, “and is characteristic of the Ehaetic or uppermost Trias. It is to this horizon, therefore, that the Myophorian Sandstone must be referred”.
