Note 43 — PART III.
Reading edition
The nummulites from the Birket el Qurûn series have not yet been critically examined. There appear to be several species present, including N. Beaumonti, N. Sub-Beaumonti, N. Fraasi and N. Schweinfurthi. In the Zeuglodon Valley, 12 kilom. W.S.W. of Gar el Gehannem, occasional individuals of N. gizehensis occur in the basal beds. As there appears to be some doubt whether the four smaller nummulites mentioned above are specifically distinct we shall not attempt to discriminate too closely in the present report.
