Six Upper Limestones, A to F. Myalina Beds. Corals. Petrified Trees. Shells. Marine Beds. Crustacea. Fossils. Fish. V. Results—The Two Groups defined. Tuberculated Fish. Introduction. In this paper I shall first refer to the circumstances under which the follow- ing observations were made. I had gone in the autumn of 1856 for a few weeks to Elie on the Fife coast, and was induced, as a means of relaxation and exercise in the open air, to pay some attention to the geology of the neighbourhood, resuming for a brief interval what was once a favourite pursuit. About a mile to the east of the village, I found a stratum well deserving attention—a thin bed of limestone—dipping in- land a little beyond the cliff on which stands the ruined Castle of Ardross. The fossil shells which it contained were of unusual form, and beautifully preserved ; there were fish remains of two or three species, and a small group of crustaceans still more remarkable. Among the fish I thought I could detect the large scales of an Irish species—the Holoirtijchius Fortlockii—and among the crustaceans there were the valves of Dithyrocaris, a genus particularly characteristic of the Irish beds. At once the question arose whether these fossils might not serve as links connecting this Ardross bed with the Irish series.

Late Devonian (Frasnian) bivalves from the Nocedo Formation – the results of Wil- helm Kegel’s 1927 field trip to northern Spain. Scripta Geologica Special Issue, 7: 13-34, 9 figs., Leiden, December 2010. Michael R.W. Amler, Department für Geo- und Umweltwissenschaften, Sektion Geologie, and Geo- Biocenter Munich, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Luisenstr. 37, D-80333 München, Ger- many ([email protected]), and Institut für Geologie und Paläontologie im Fachbereich Geographie der Philipps-Universität Marburg, Hans-Meerwein-Str., D-35032 Marburg, Germany ([email protected]). Key words — Bivalvia, Rhenish Facies, Nocedo Formation, Frasnian, Cantabrian Mountains, Iberia, Wilhelm Kegel. During a field trip to the Peña-Corada Unit of the southernmost Esla region of the Cantabrian Moun- tains in 1927, the German stratigrapher Wilhelm Kegel sampled brachiopods and bivalves from a section in the Laoz valley near La Ercina. The stratigraphic position is believed to be part of the No- cedo Formation of Frasnian age. This fauna includes poorly preserved steinkerns of a near-shore bi- valve fauna that was prepared for publication including labels and proposed names, but never pub- lished. The fauna represents only a very small and random part of the former community. But as in- formation on Frasnian bivalves is scarce, the few specimens add important information on the distri- bution and palaeogeographic occurrence of near-shore, that is, Rhenish Facies bivalves within the south Laurussian – Rheic Ocean Realm.
