| Abstract/Notes | Since the publication of the notes on some new fishes from the English Purbeck and Wealden Beds five years ago, the Rev. W. R. Andrews, of Teffont, has kindly entrusted to the writer for examination a fine series of Purbeckian fishes from the Vale of Wardour. All the members of this fauna are remarkably diminutive, compared with those met with in the corresponding formation in Dorsetshire; but nearly all the species are well preserved, and some are sufficiently novel to be worthy of detailed description. The Pycnodont genus Mesodon, which was first described from the English Purbeck in the paper already cited, is here represented by one or two more forms; the Lepidosteoid Macrosemius is now first definitely recorded as a British fossil; additional examples of Pleuropholis extend previous information of that genus; new specimens of Leptolepis Brodiei add to the known specific characters of this fish; and the opportunity is now afforded for publishing a figure of the small Palæoniscid, Coccolepis andrewsi. |
