Specimens collected include ostracods, bivalves, <br />and fish scales from the calcareous shales, and Sequoia, <br />Geinitzia reichenbacki, Ficus and other as yet unidentified <br />leaves from the carbonaceous shales. These leaves are by <br />far the most interesting fossils found as even their delicate <br />veins are preserved. <br />A-12. A little to [he east of A-4, sandstone blocks were found on <br />a ledge with angiosperm leaves. <br />A-7 A mold of a fossil log was found in a white sandstone but <br />because of the massiveness and joint free surface only a <br />small piece was collected. <br />• A-S A coal sample was collected from a trench. <br />A-9 The site of an ancient landslide most of the area is covered <br />by scrub oak (Fig. 3) Yet a palm frond was found near the <br />upper limits of the slide. This specimen was not collected <br />as the encasing sandstone was too massive to be carried. <br />A-10 In the shales exposed in the landslide angiosperm leaves <br />were collected from concretions. <br />A-Il A specimen of the scaly plant Geinitzia was found. <br />A-12 In [he terrace deposits of Milk Creek Oreohelix strigosa <br />(Gould) and Succinea grosvenori Lea were collected. <br />CG-1 Miscellaneous plant pieces and a leaf (willow?). <br />CG-2 Ostrea were found in abundance in a block of yellow sand- <br />stone. <br />• <br />
