Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Summary
A brachiopod fauna is described from a marine horizon within the Dartmouth Beds at Bull Cove, Cornwall. The fauna indicates a Middle or Late Siegenian age and aspects of the palaeoecology are discussed. The Lower Devonian succession of south Devon and north Cornwall is discussed and the terms Meadfoot facies and Standon facies are proposed to replace the Meadfoot Beds and Staddon Grits of the old terminology.
