Correlation between four published and one unpublished lithological logs from the Gram clay pit permits a comparison between previous studies of this critical exposure. The boundary between the Gram Clay and the Gram Silt in the Gram clay pit is redefined. A sea-level curve, based mainly on foraminiferal data from the Sæd, Gram and Lille Tønde borings in southern Jutland, is constructed and compared with a published sea-level curve from the North Sea. It appears that sea level recorded from southern Jutland was controlled mainly by eustacy.

【 摘 要 】

A curious blunt-toed tridactyl footprint of a relatively large trackmaker is stored in the Geological Museum in Copenhagen. The footprint was found nearly 50 years ago in the Rhaetian coal-bearing strata mined in the Gustav Adolf Mine, near Höganäs, Scania, Southern Sweden. The morphology of the specimen suggests that it was left by an early advanced thyreophoran dinosaur, in this case the earliest known.
