Extract

As this subject has been a matter for considerable debate during the past few years, and the British Committee of the International Geological Congress have had the matter under their consideration, it may be useful if I attempt to place before the readers of the Geological Magazine the results of the investigations of our sub-committee. As is well known, the term “Poikilitic” has been proposed in some quarters as a comprehensive name for both series, some writers advocating the view that they ought to be regarded as one “system,” as indeed they were of old under the name “New Red Sandstone.”
