摘要:
AbstractThe Ludlovian Series has been mapped between the River Onny at Craven Arms and the village of Bourton which lies 2½ miles SW of Much Wenlock. Ten subdivisions are recognised on biostratigraphical and lithostratigraphical criteria. For these divisions the stratigraphical terminology established by Holland, Lawson and Walmsley (1959, 1963) in the Ludlow area has been utilised. Two breaks occur in the otherwise continuous succession of variable calcareous sediments: there is lithological and faunal discontinuity at the base of the Leintwardine Beds and within the Upper Leintwardine Beds. The latter can be recognised over a wide area of the Ludlovian shelf. Accordingly alternative correlations, to those presently accepted, are proposed for the Leintwardine Beds
