II.—On a Genus and Species of Sauroid Fish (Thlattodus suchoïdes,1 Ow.) from the Kimmeridge Clay of Norfolk

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

But little evidence has, hitherto, been had of the existence of large Sauroid fishes in the Kimmeridge Clay: indications by detached teeth had only, until now, reached me. The very useful “Systematic and Stratigraphical Catalogue of the Fossil Fish in the cabinets of Lord Cole” (now Earl of Enniskillen) “and Sir Philip de M. Grey Egerton,” 4to., did not include any species from that formation at the time of its publication (1837).
