SMITH, J. D. D., WHITE, D. E. 1963. Cambrian trilobites from the Purley Shales of Warwickshire. Palaeontology, 6, 3, 397–407.

J. D. D. Smith and D. E. White Trilobites from the Purley Shales of Warwickshire are described and illustrated, including those from a new locality. It is concluded that the lowest 40 ft. of the Purley Shales belong to'the Lower Cambrian, and at least 450 ft. of higher beds are probably of Paradoxides oelandicus age (basal Middle Cambrian).
