Marine fossils from the Carboniferous glacial rocks of New South Wales

Describes marine fossils found in and below a section of glacial rocks belonging to the Kullatine series of northeastern New South Wales. Those in the lower fossiliferous zone indicate a late Namurian age, those in the upper part of the section a Westphalian age. No evidence for pre- Westphalian glaciation is present. New scyphozoan, brachiopod, ammonite, and molluscan species are represented in the forms described.
