A New Jurassic Outcrop in the Jordan Valley

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

Nearly twenty years ago L. R. Cox published (Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., 1925, p. 169) an account of “Bajocian-Bathonian outcrop in the Jordan Valley and its Molluscan Remains”, which was then, according to the author, “the first authentic record of Jurassic rocks in the Jordan Valley region, or anywhere between Northern Sinai and Mount Hermon, in Syria.” Miss Helen Muir-Wood in the same issue analysed the Brachiopod fauna of these rocks.
