their fine ink-stones. The
extreme upper beds are more
shalj, and have yielded fossils
both animal and vegetable. I
have met with but one locality
for each, however, — the former,
near Kiukiang, at the foot of
the Lu-shan, the latter, in the
Si Tungting-shan, in the Tai-
hu. Of the former I have col-
lected ; —
Some doubtful fish-scales.
An Orthoceratite.
Two Cirri?
A Gryphcea.
A smaU doubtful conchifer.
The above, like most of the
fossils of the Tungting series,
are excessively badly pre-
served.
Of vegetable remains I have
noticed the following : —
A Lepidodendron, with small
lozenge-shaped reticulations.
Some stems of conifers, and
possibly leaves of the same.
A Pecopteris.
Apparently two other forms
not sufficiently well marked for
determination.
Fragments of leaves with
parallel striae.
The vegetable remains at
least seem to indicate an early
age for the containing rock.
These rocks, in the south of
China, are eminently developed
in the vaUey of the Si-kiang
or West River, which rises in
the frontier districts of Yun-
nan and Kwangsi, and, flow-
ing on towards the delta of
the Canton river, disembogues
finally at the western side of
the island on which is situated
the Portuguese settlement of
Macao. Mr. Bickmore describes
them likewise as forming the
foundation rock in the valley

of the Kweikiang or Cassia

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
