The author described the findings of a study trip made by him in 1975 through Denmark and South Sweden. He made visits to the large limestone quarry of Fakse on Sjaelland, the deposits of which date from the Danian, to Stevns Klint which is wellknown for its great variety of fossil sea-urchins and to Skane near Brantevik he collected the Upper Cambrian brachiopod Orusia lenticularis and made photographs of vestiges of life from the Lower Cambrian (Skolitos, Diplocraterion, Plagiogmus and Psammichnites) and the petrified undulations of the Cambrian seabottom. Some data are presented on the vegetation of this region and on the causes of the green colour of the sea water.
