THE PERIDOTITE DIKES OF SYRACUSE AND VICINITY * There are several localities in central New York in which dikesof basic rock cut through the Paleozoic sedimentaries. There issuch a dike in the city of Syracuse, one at the Dewitt reservoir, 3miles east of the city, another near Otisco lake, some 15 miles south-west of the city. Other dikes somewhat similar to these are knownto occur near Itahaca farther to the southwest and at Manheimfarther to the east.
