Kegarding them, for reasons way Kiver. stated in a paper on the subject published in the Canadian Naturalist, to be burrows of Trilobitcs or other crustaceans, I have proposed for them the name Rusichnites, and have described the present species as R. carbonarhis (Fig. HO). These and the worm-tracks above mentioned are best seen at Halfway Kiver, between Horton and Windsor. No coal has been found in these rocks. It is evident that in the section above described, we have the occur- rence, in the very lowest part of the Carboniferous system, of beds very similar to the Middle Coal formation as it occurs in Cumberland, though sufficiently distinct in their mineral characters and association of fossils to prevent us from confounding the two ; an error which has, however, been committed by some of the earlier writers on the geology of the country, and has led to much additional confusion. Jieds of similar character and age occur at Halfway River, near Windsor, on the St Croix River, at Upper Rawdon, and at the Gore. In all these localities they skirt the base of the slate hills. On the north shore of Hants, they have been thrown up to the surface by an anticlinal bend of the strata, and are seen at Five Mile River, Noel, Teny Cape, and Walton (Fig. 81). In all these places they appear to underlie the great Lower Carboniferous marine lim
