l)According to Westerg~rd( 1947) this thin conglo~erate contains Dictyonema flabelliforme<br />

and an Obolus(probably Obolus apollinis, according to this author), which would place this conglomerate<br />

in the Subzone of Dictyonema flabelliforme typica.<br />

A rock-sequence described by Westergard (1922) from the sea-cliff south-west of Djupvik.<br />

The lithostratigraphic classification used in this paper and the probable position of Westergard's<br />

faunas in the Swedish biozonation are put in juxtaposition.
