Abstract

The finding of Anthraconauta tenuis (Davies and Trueman) at Etruria, North Staffordshire, just above the basal limestone of the Newcastle-under-Lyme Beds suggests that the base of the Tenuis Zone, hitherto placed at the base of the Keele Beds, should be brought down to the base of the Newcastle-under-Lyme Beds.
