Abstract/NotesA series of Recent volcanic ashes and tuffs from various parts of Malaya has been examined on behalf of the Director of the Geological Survey, F.M.S., in order to test the reported occurrence of marine sponge spicules in certain of these deposits (cf. J. B. Scrivenor, 1930, A Recent Rhyolite-ash with Sponge-spicules and Diatoms in Malaya, Geol. Mag., lxvii, 385–393, pls. xxii, xxiii). If such an occurrence were confirmed it might be taken as evidence of very considerable changes in sea-level within recent times, since at one locality the deposits yielding the supposed spicules reach an elevation of 500 feet above M.S.L. (see Willbourn, Rep. Geol. Surv. Dept. F.M.S. for 1937 (1938), PP. 8–10).
