Text Appearing Before Image:
Fig. 384.—Pterodactylus Gratsirostris*—Goldfuss* § 674. It is also in the upper stages of this formation thatwe meet with the skeletons of tortoises. Here also we findthe remains of several families of insects (Lidellula, Coleop-tera, Ichneumons, $-c.) Finally, in these same stages, the slatesof Stonesfield, the first traces of mammals are found, namely,\he jaws and teeth of animals belonging to extinct forms of 406 GEOLOGICAL SUCCESSION OF ANIMALS.
