Abstract
The author stated that in an exposure of light-green micaceous shales dipping south-east at 50° at Shineton, near Cressage, which are represented as of Caradoc age in the Geological-Survey Map, he found a series of Trilobites and other fossils which induced him to regard these Shineton shales as belonging to the Lower Tremadoc series. He described as new species Asaphus Eos, Conocoryphe Salteri, C. angulifrons, Platypeltis Croftii, Conophrys salopiensis, Lichapyge cuspidata, Lingulella Nicholsoni, Metoptoma Sabrinæ , and Theca lineata . The author regarded these shales as the equivalents of beds containing Dictyonema found near Malvern and at Pedwardine.
