H 1 1— Roilways Division boundaries District boundaries Scale of miles 10 20 30 40 50 Figure 2. Map of part of the Salt Range and Trans-Indus Ranges of West Pakistan showing localities of the stratigraphic sections. sic column, it is necessary to review in de- tail the WVnne-W'aagen data so that the stratigraphic and paleontological data pub- lished to date can finally be clearly under- stood (Fig. 3). These authors observed that the Triassic strata make their appearance around Ka- thwai in the central Salt Range, and from there westward to the Trans-Indus ranges these strata are amply developed and thick- ened. In the region of Kathwai, Wynne and Waagen measured the following sec- tion (\\ynne, 1878, p. 218): Trias Greenish and gray shales, var- iegated, red, yellow and blue at top; Ceratites Ceratite limestone Yellow, sandy calcareous beds with Rhijnchonellae Feet 20-30 3-4 Brown dolomite, like that at Pail Gray and greenish calcareous Carbon- and micaceous sandstone, iferous with limestone bands, weath- ering red in parts and con- taining BeUerophon, Produc- itis, etc. 90-100 Approximately six miles west of Kathwai in the vicinity of Jalar (Jalhar) Waagen measured the following section (Wynne, 1878, p. 224): Trias Hard limestones \\'ith Bivalves (overlain by "Hematite," marls and limestone beds Waagen assigned to the Nummulitic). Thin-l)edded hard limestone with different species of Ceratites Brown sandstone with Cerati- tes Flemingi Brownish and light yellow sandstone with few Cerati- tes. In the upper part of tliese sandstones is the Bel- Feet 4-5 10 10.
