Monographs of the Geological Department of the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow University. 1. The Collection of Fossils and Rocks from Somaliland

Abstract

THIS work deals mainly with the paheontology of the Jurassic, Eocene, and Oligocene deposits of part of the maritime plain of British Somaliland in the neighbour hood of Bulhar and Berbera (Gulf of Aden), and is based on the collections made by Messrs. Wyllie and Smellie when surveying the region on behalf of the Anglo-Persian Oil Company. It is to be hoped that other companies will adopt this policy of allowing matter of geological interest to be published. The collection has been presented to the Glasgow University Museum.

Made by B. K. N. Wyllie and Dr. W. R. Smellie. Pp. vi + 180 + 18 plates. (Glasgow: Jackson, Wylie and Co., 1925.) 42s. net.
