Extract

The material to be described was collected in the Shotts-Newhouse area (Sheet 31) of the Central Coalfield from the mussel bands above the Shotts Gas and presumed Lower Drumgray Coals. These horizons are within the Ovalis Zone (Weir and Leitch, 1936, pp. 704, 707). Fossils from above the presumed Lower Drumgray Coal were collected from the waste tip of South Langridge Colliery; material from the Shotts Gas was obtained from the tips at Fortissat, Hassockrigg, and Hirstrigg collieries.
