This collection of fossils from the Portland area consists chiefly from mollusca, but where a small portion of sediment was attached to the fossils, it was removed and washed down for micro-examination. The number given to each sample refers to the registered number in the Victorian Geological Survey Collection. The results of the examination are recorded in this report.
