Description :
Ratios of D-alloisolencine to L-isolencine have been determined on freshwater molluscs from 13 interglacial sites in South East England and on marine molluscs and foraminifera from 10 Pleistocene and Upper Pliocene Crag sites in East Anglia. We can distinguish the Ipswichian, then either one or two interglacials that may be younger than the classical Hoxnian, then the Pleistocene Crags, then the Pliocene Coralline Crag.
