PREFACE 
 
 The Science of Geology rests upon the fossil contents of the rocks, 
 and, therefore, there can be but little knowledge 'of the science without 
 a knowledge of the fossils. Every one professes to take an interest in 
 Geology, although the complaint against the technical names is quite 
 general. This work may be regarded as a compilation of these technical 
 names in alphabetical order, with the signification of each, and in this 
 respect, it is a dictionary adapted to the use of every one, and designed 
 to remove the objections against the hard words used in the science. The 
 references to authors and publications are for the special benefit of the 
 describers of fossils and the students of palaeontology, while the Groups of 
 rocks are given for the convenience of collectors and students generally. 
 The general plan of the work will be, at once, apparent to the reader; 
 a few remarks, however, in regard thereto, may not be inappropriate. 
 
 The state of the science, at this time, does not admit of a very great 
 degree of certainty in the arrangement of Palaeozoic Fossils into fami- 
 lies; such arrangement must, therefore, be regarded as more or less pro- 
 visional. And, in this work, where a class could not be arranged into 
 families already limited and defined, with approximate correctness, the 
 attempt has been omitted. No new families have been proposed, with 
 the exception of three names, followed by the provisional interrogation 
 point in the Class Echinodermata. The new family names in the Class 
 Lamellibranchiata are used by Prof. James Hall in the fifth volume of the 
 Palaeontology of New York. 
 
 Each generic name is followed by the name of the author, the date 
 of the first publication, the title of the book in which it first appeared, 
 which is generally abbreviated, and the etymology of the word, which is 
 included within brackets. Valid names are printed in Roman letters. 
 Generic names, preoccupied, never defined, and where the fossils are 
 unknown in American palaeozoic rocks, or the names invalid for any 
 other reason, are italicized. The generic name always begins with a 
 capital letter, whether it is a valid or invalid name. 
 
 Each specific name, or as it was formerly, called the trivial name, is 
 followed with the name of the author, the date of the first publication, 
 the title of the book in which it appeared, which is generally abbreviated, 
 the Group of rocks in which the fossil is found when the Group is known ; 
 but otherwise the formation alone is given, and the signification of the

 name included within brackets. The name of the Group of rocks is 
 generally abbreviated. Where the author, in the first instance, referred 
 his species to the wrong genus, such generic and specific name is 
 included within parenthesis immediately following the date of the publi- 
 cation. For instance, DeWiyris is a synonym for Spinfera, and many 
 species have been erroneously referred to it; such are written in this 
 
 manner: ■; 
 
 Spirifera arenosa, Conrad, 1838, (Delthyns arenosa), Ann. Rep. N. 
 
 Y., Oriskany sandstone. [Sig. sandy.] 
 Specific names never begin with capital letters. 
 
 The author has endeavored to quote from the original publications, 
 and for kindness and assistance in obtaining access to them, he expresses 
 his obligations to Prof. James Hall, of Albany, New York; Mr. 0. D. 
 Walcott, of Trenton Falls, New York ; Prof. Leo. Lesquereux, of Columbus, 
 Ohio, and to Mr. Thomas Vickers, the able and eflicient librarian of the 
 public library in the city of Cincinnati. A few of the works cited, how- 
 ever, were not within reach, and the references to these are therefore 
 second hand. In the attempt to make the catalogue of names complete, 
 within the scope of the work, the author visited several libraries and 
 otherwise used reasonable efforts for that purpose, but he has no doubt 
 that a few names have been omitted. The number of names in the book 
 is as follows: 
 
 Generic names in Roman letters, - 1,000 
 
 Generic names in Italic letters, 200 
 
 Specific names in Roman letters, - 8,000 
 
 Specific names in Italic letters, 2,000 
 
 Total number of genera and species, including 
 
 synonyms, etc., 11,200 
 
 Some of the authors of generic and specific names have not been 
 familiar with the Latin and Greek languages, others have been careless 
 in the exercise of their knowledge when forming the new words, and 
 many names have been misprinted for want of careful proof-reading. 
 For these and probably other reasons, the specific names under a single 
 genus have been found with masculine, feminine, and neuter termina- 
 tions; no uniformity has existed in the terminations added to proper 
 names, and words have been otherwise incorrectly formed. So univer- 
 sally have these errors prevailed, that the author found in some Classes, 
 twenty-five per cent, of the names defective. In a conversation with 
 Prof. E. W. Claypole, of Antioch College, Yellow Springs, Ohio, (a gentle- 
 man thoroughly learned in the Latin and Greek languages) shortly before 
 commencing the publication, with regard to the etymology of words, and 
 the importance of following the laws of language in making the genders 
 of the adjective specific names correspond with those of the generic 
 terms, he very kindly proffered his assistance, for the purpose of making 
 all proper corrections in this regard. Publication was commenced in 
 February, and the proofs were sent to Prof. Claypole as rapidly as the 
 
PREFACE. 
 
 matter was put in type for his inspection and correction, but the matter 
 was published so rapidly that it frequently went to press before the 
 return by mail, of his proof. The greater part of the work, therefore, did 
 not have the benefit of his revision. 
 
 As an illustration, the genus Macrocheilua has been considered 
 masculine by all the authors, and consequently the specific names have 
 been made masculine. As Prof. Claypole did not read the proof, the 
 specific names are published here in the masculine, as the authors made 
 them; but on his authority the species under the genera Temnocheilus, 
 Solenocheilus, etc., have been changed from the masculine to the neuter 
 gender. It may be a question, however, whether usage has not made 
 such genera masculine. No such doubt can arise in the case of the words 
 ending in nema as, Cyclonema, Zoxonema y Dictyonema, etc., which have 
 been treated almost or quite uniformly by the authors as feminine ; for 
 nema is neuter, in both the Latin and the Greek languages, and there is 
 no reason whatever, for using it as feminine. Where specific names have 
 been formed in more genders than one under a single genus, there seems 
 to be no responsibility in correcting the errors and making the specific 
 names correspond in gender with the genus, and this has been done in 
 several hundred instances in this work. Perfection, however, has not 
 been reached in this publication, and for the purpose of rendering 
 greater assistance in that regard, the "Index of Genera" has been made 
 to indicate the gender of each genus, so that any one with a little 
 knowledge of Latin can make the species conform in gender with the 
 genus. The reader will know that generic names are usually coined 
 from Greek words, and specific names from Latin words or proper names 
 with Latin terminations. 
 
 In Latinizing specific proper names, no uniformity has ever existed, 
 nor can the author claim to have accomplished it in this work. Some 
 authors have used the terminations ianus, iana and ianum, while others 
 have used anus, ana and anum. The first impression was that the 
 former endings were proper, and consequently they were used in part 
 of this work; but the best authors use only the latter, and upon 
 reflection we were of the opinion that the latter endings are the 
 proper ones, and they were thereafter used in this work exclusively. 
 The reader is directed, therefore, to correct the proper names ending in 
 ianus, iana and ianum, which occur, in some instances, from the Polypi 
 to the Brachiopoda, by striking out the letter i and thus perfect this class 
 of words. 
 
 Again, no uniformity exists in specific proper names put in the geni- 
 tive case by adding the Latin ending i, where the proper names end in 
 6, y, etc. There seems to be no difficulty where the proper name ends in 
 a consonant, in accomplishing the desired purpose by adding a single i, 
 and generally where words of more than one syllable end in e, the same 
 purpose may be accomplished by changing the e to i\ but there are 
 words where positive difficulty exists, for instance ; Case, Casey, White, 
 Whity, Moor, Moore, Hoy, etc. Some would change the e into i in Moore 
 
PREFACE. 
 
 and add i to Moor, so that in each case we would have the same specific 
 name moori, and so with White and Whity ; but there are very strong 
 reasons against such action. In this work, the words of one syllable 
 ending in e have sometimes been written with an i added, and at other 
 times made to end in ii, according to the rules of the British Associa- 
 tion, as casei and casii. But the author is of the opinion that the single 
 letter i in these words is to be preferred; thus casei, caseyi, whitei, 
 whityi, moori, moorei, hoyi, etc., for the following reason. The use of 
 such words is justified because the men have been in some way useful 
 to the science, and the preservation of their names is part of the history 
 of its growth, and can be defended with stronger reason than the use 
 of mythological names, even within the limits warranted by the rules of 
 the British Association, where a fanciful resemblance is made a test. A 
 man may devote ten, twenty, or thirty years of his life to the collection 
 of fossils, or he may devote as many years to the study and description 
 of them. In either case his services may constitute the entire history 
 of the fossils of a given locality, and in what way can the science be 
 better subserved than by perpetuating his name among the fossils he 
 discovered or defined ? If the reason for the use of his name is a good 
 one, it is equally strong to use it so that it will not be misunderstood, and 
 can not be made to represent an individual of a different name. The fact 
 that the name does not readily assume a Latin form is of slight weight, 
 in the opinion of the author, compared with the preservation of the 
 history of the science in perpetuating the names of those who have 
 devoted themselves to discover and systematize it. 
 
 At the request of the author, Prof. Claypole has written an essay 
 upon the rules of nomenclature, for this work, to which the reader is 
 referred for further light in the construction of words. 
 
CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PALEONTOLOGY. 
 
 By PROF. E. W. CLAYPOLE, B. A., B. Sc, (London), Antioeh College, Yellow Springs, Ohio. 
 
 The Latin language is universally adopted in the scientific world for 
 naming species, fossil and recent, in both the Animal and Vegetable 
 Kingdoms. Linnaeus introduced the plan of limiting the name of a species 
 to two words, the former of which was generic and the latter specific, and 
 of making these terms in their formation comply with the rules of the 
 Latin tongue. Since his time, this plan has become the rule. At first, 
 terms were chosen expressing the character or characters which define 
 the genus or species, and such names constitute the perfection of 
 scientific nomenclature. But even Linnaeus soon found it impossible to 
 maintain this standard, and himself resorted to Homer's Iliad to find 
 names with which to christen the butterflies that thronged in upon him. 
 Hence we have Troilus, Danaus, Philenor, <fec. Such names are mere arbi- 
 trary, meaningless counters attached to the objects and only tenable by 
 an act of memory. They recall no character and are recalled by none. 
 Hence they are inferior to the former class of names. But if in Linnaeus' 
 day their necessity was evident, much more so is it to-day, when almost 
 every language and lexicon have been ransacked to find unpreoccupied 
 names for the hosts of natural objects for which they are required. In some 
 large genera, such for instance as Orthoceras, Orthis and Rhynchonella, 
 it has become exceedingly difficult to coin descriptive names which have 
 not been already thrown into circulation by some other author. This 
 will be evident to any reader in the number of specific names in the 
 catalogue marked "preoccupied," and one object is to provide a remedy 
 for the difficulty by enabling any one to see at a glance whether or not 
 any proposed name has been previously published by any American, 
 and to some extent, by any European author. 
 
 The conventional Latin of the Sciences differs somewhat from the 
 classical Latin of the schools. As a dead language, Latin is free from the 
 changes to which all living languages are subject, and as the most widely 
 studied of the dead languages, it forms an excellent means of communi- 
 cation between men of science in different countries. Words and com- 
 binations of letters have, however, been introduced alien to the genius 
 of the language, and some of them most barbarous and unmusical. 
 
 * NOTE.— This paper has been prepared at the request of Mr. S. A. Miller, the author of the 
 American Palaeozoic Fossils, and with the view of giving some assistance to palseontological 
 students and workers, in avoiding errors and improving the nomenclature of science. E. W. C.

 Indeed their introduction cannot well be opposed, as they often offer 
 useful characters. But the laws of Latin should nevertheless control 
 their formation. They should be made, as nearly as possible, what the 
 Roman would have made them had they been introduced from outside 
 into the language while yet living. In this way no violence is done to it, 
 and in all countries words will be formed in a similar manner. 
 
 In the year 1862, a committee of the British Association for the 
 Advancement of Science, published a set of rules and recommendations 
 on the subject of Scientific nomenclature, the former of which may be 
 said to be a summary of the practice of the best scientific writers in all 
 lands, and therefore binding, and the latter have been, with a few ex- 
 ceptions, almost universally adopted. Thus, alluding to the point 
 above mentioned, the committee in its " Recommendations " says : 
 
 b. Barbarous names. — Some authors protest strongly against the introduction of exotic 
 words into our Latin nomenclature; others defend the practice with equal warmth. We 
 may remark, first, that the practice is not contrary to classical usage, for the Greeks 
 and Romans did occasionally, though with reluctance, introduce barbarous words in a 
 modified form into their respective languages. Secondly, the preservation of the trivial 
 names which animals bear in their native countries is often of great use to the traveler, in 
 aiding him to discover and identify species. We do not, therefore, consider, if such 
 words have a Latin termination given to them, that the occasional and judicious use of 
 them as scientific terms can be justly objected to. 
 
 In addition to drawing up a mere list of the North American Palaeo- 
 zoic Fossils, an attempt has been made to give some help to the many 
 workers in the palaeontological field towards rightly naming their 
 fossils at the outset. A mistake once in print is very difficult to 
 eradicate. It reappears, it crops out in some unexpected place and with 
 every reappearance has a new lease of life. Few who have not made 
 some study of the subject have any conception of the confusion now 
 existing in the nomenclature of science. The errors are of two kinds — 
 scientific and grammatical. To such a length has synonymy or the giving 
 of different names to the same species now arrived, that it not unfre- 
 quently happens that the common English name is more definite and 
 vivid, and therefore more useful than the Scientific. Read, for instance, 
 the twelve different names which have been given to the common Chain 
 Coral, from Fougt, in 1765, to Bronn, in 1835. This, in many cases, arises 
 from mistaken identification, which with all care must sometimes hap- 
 pen, but it arises in a still greater degree from the impossibility of learn- 
 ing what species have been found and what names have been given, 
 when they were given and by whom. 
 
 Another source of confusion is the erroneous nomenclature often 
 adopted. All whose duty calls them to the study of palaeontology are 
 not, and cannot be, classical scholars, and consequently not a few names 
 are formed in violation of the recognised rules of language. Some errors 
 of this kind have been corrected and a few rules are appended to aid 
 in preventing others. 
 
 o. Corrupted words.— In the construction of compound Latin words, there are certain 
 grammatical rules which have been known, and acted on for two thousand years, and 
 
CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PALAEONTOLOGY. ix 
 
 which a naturalist is bound to acquaint himself with before he tries his skill in coining 
 zoological terms. One of the chief of these rules is, that in compounding words, all the 
 radical or essential parts of the constituent members must be retained, and no change 
 made except in the variable terminations. But several generic names have been lately 
 introduced which run counter to this rule, and form most unsightly objects to all who are 
 conversant with the spirit of the Latin language. A name made up of the first half of 
 one word, and the last half of another, is as deformed a monster in nomenclature as a 
 mermaid or a centaur would be in zoology ; yet we find examples in the names Corcorax, 
 (from Corvus and Pyrrhocorax), Cypsnagra (from Cypselus and Tanagra), Merulaxis (Merula 
 and Lynallaxis), Loxigilla (from Loxia and Fringilla), etc. In other cases, when the com- 
 mencement of both the simple words is retained in the compound, a fault is still committed 
 by cutting off too much of the radical and vital portions, as is the case in Bucorvus (from 
 Buceros and Corvus), Ninox (Nisus and Noctua), etc. 
 
 I. Adjective generic names. — The names of genera are, in all cases, essentially substan- 
 tive, and hence adjective terms can not be employed for them without doing violence to 
 grammar. The generic names of Hians, Criniger, Cursorius, Nitidula, etc., are examples of 
 this incorrect usage. — Recommendations. 
 
 If a writer is unable to coin such a generic term •without falling into 
 these of other errors, it would be wise to abandon the attempt and form 
 one in another manner. 
 
 RULES FOR THE FORMATION OF NEW NAMES IN FAL2E0NT0L0GY. 
 
 a. Gender of generic terms. — A generic name should always be of 
 that gender which the laws of the language from which it is taken 
 demand. Definite rules cannot well be laid down, because the practice 
 of various languages differs on this point. In general, where no change 
 is made in the termination of the word which forms the end of a new 
 name, the gender of that word will determine that of the name. Thus, 
 the words, stoma, a mouth, and ceras, a horn, are both, in Greek, of the 
 neuter gender ; and, consequently, all the many compounds ending with 
 these words, such as Orthoceras, Platystoma, etc., must be of that gender 
 also, and have corresponding specific adjective terms. If the first 
 founder of a genus were to take the pains to ascertain the right gender 
 of his new name, and make his adjective terms accordingly, many errors 
 would be avoided, for subsequent authors, apparently without a thought, 
 in establishing a new species, coin a specific name of the same gender as 
 that originally published, and thus perpetuate and increase error. For 
 example, the word desma, a bond, like almost all Greek words ending in 
 ma, is of the neuter gender; and yet, in a work standing so high as 
 Woodward's Mollusca, we find Lyro desma plana, followed shortly after- 
 wards by Cochlodesma praetenue. 
 
 b. Gender of specific terms. — Every specific name must agree in 
 gender with that of the genus to which it belongs; and yet, owing to the 
 above and several other causes, this rule is incessantly overlooked or 
 violated, even by writers whose classical attainments are beyond doubt. 
 In few, if any, large genera do we fail to find two, if not all, the three 
 genders among the specific names. For instance, in the genus Recepta- 
 culites we have Receptaculites fungosum, R.globulare, R. formosus, R. 
 
CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PALEONTOLOGY. 
 
 reticulata. Such terms, being mere errors, pure and simple, and involv- 
 ing no disputed or debatable point, may be reduced to accord without 
 difficulty. 
 
 c. Latin and Greek terminations.— The addition of these termina- 
 tions to old words often requires a previous change in those words the 
 following rules are offered as some assistance to those whose time does 
 not allow the consultation of authorities, scientific and linguistic. It is 
 not always easy for even a classical scholar to determine off-hand how 
 the Greeks or Romans would have made a word, had it been coined by 
 them while their languages were still living. Much examination and 
 collection of examples is necessary before certainty can be reached, and 
 in a few cases some doubt may then remain. These cases are, however, 
 very few, especially as the terminations employed in palasontology are 
 not numerous. The following rules will probably suffice to enable any 
 one with an elementary knowledge of the classic tongues to form cor- 
 rectly a new specific term, but nothing can give full immunity from 
 risk of error where some such knowledge is not possessed. 
 
 — alis. This Latin termination, implying resemblance, is seldom 
 used, except in words already compounded in Greek and Latin, and when 
 otherwise, it must be annexed to the stem of the word, as rectilateralis, 
 quadrilateralis. 
 
 — anus. This Latin termination implies resemblance or association, 
 and may be added to proper names, personal or local ; though in science 
 its use is almost confined to the former. If the word be capable of tak- 
 ing a classic form, the termination should be simply annexed to the stem 
 as Linnaeus, linnaeanus; Lesquereux, (lescuria) lescurianus; in con- 
 formity with classic usage; pagus, paganus; Claudius, claudianus; 
 Neapolis, neapolitanus. In other cases, the addition of this termination 
 must follow the same rule as those for ensis* as America, americanus; 
 Geinitz, geinitzanus ; Meek, meekanus ; Erie, erianus ; Italy, (ia) 
 italianus. 
 
 — atus. This Latin termination strictly implies the possession of the 
 thing to the name of which it is added. It is, therefore, affixed to the 
 stem of common names only, as costa, costatus; galea, galeatus; fornix, 
 fornicatus; sinus, sinuatus; stria, striatus, lobus, lobatus; rostrum, 
 rostratus. It is worthy of remark here that this termination sometimes 
 loses its at, to shorten the word. The practice is not commendable from 
 a linguistic standpoint, but some of the terms so made have become fixed 
 in the nomenclature, as Orthis biloba. 
 
 — formis. This Latin termination implies resemblance of shape, and 
 should be confined to Latin words, to the stem of which it should be 
 joined by the connecting vowel i, as laterna, laterniformis ,' pistillum, 
 pistilli formis. In forming terms, such as the first given above from 
 Latin words ending in a, the error of using ae as the connecting vowel 
 should be avoided ; being inconsistent with classic usage, as well as more 
 awkward and lengthy, thus we have from terra, terricola; gemma, gem- 
 mifer; squama, squamiger; tuba, tubiformis; etc. 
 
CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PALAEONTOLOGY. xi 
 
 — ensis. This is a Latin termination, expressive of locality, and can- 
 not, therefore, be correctly employed except as an affix to the name of a 
 place. This rule has been traversed in few real, but in many apparent 
 instances. Lingula morsensis is an illustration of the former. In accord- 
 ance with law this has been changed to L. morsi, being given in honor 
 of Mr. Morse. Zygospira cincinnatiensis, Pupa vermilionensis, Car- 
 dium napoleonense, Athyris hannibalensis are apparent exceptions; but 
 these terms are formed from words, which, though originally personal or 
 trivial, have now become local names, and consequently no valid objection 
 can be raised against them. In using this termination the following 
 rules have been generally followed, and are therefore adopted here. 
 The exceptions are very few, and have been reduced into conformity : 
 1st. If the name of the place ends in a consonant the termination is 
 annexed to the word, as Clinton, clintonensis. 2d. If the name ends in 
 a or e, these letters are dropped and the termination then annexed, as 
 Canada, canadensis; Nebraska, nebrascensis; Minnesota, minnesotensis; 
 Iowa, iowensis; Indiana, indianensis ; Lasalle, lasallensis; Erie, eri- 
 ensis. 3rd. If the name ends in i, o or u, that vowel is retained, as 
 Mississippi, mississippiensis ; Missouri, missouriensis ; Chicago, chi- 
 cagoensis; Colorado, color adoensis; Chouteau, chouteauensis. 4th. If 
 the name ends in y, that letter becomes i upon the addition of the termi- 
 nation, as Kentucky, Tcentuchiensis ; Alleghany, alleghaniensis ; in accord- 
 ance with classic usage, as Sicily, siciliensis. 
 
 — i. The termination i is to be considered a mere indication of the 
 Latin genitive case, and custom, rather than correctness, has, in some 
 sense, legalized its addition to any name. In practice, however, it is 
 almost restricted to proper names. Thus we have Knighti, Littoni, 
 Flemingi, Ivesi. The Rule of the British Association on this matter 
 runs thus: "In Latinizing proper names, the simplest rule seems to be 
 to use the termination us, genitive i, when the name ends with a conso- 
 nant, and ius, gen. ii, when it ends with a vowel." 
 
 — icus. This Greek termination implies resemblance and may be 
 added to common names, under the same rules as those given for — ensis, 
 except that in forming the word, a vowel is suppressed if it would pre- 
 cede the termination; thus, Macedon, macedonicus ; Italy (ia), italicus. 
 It is little used, except in words already existing, as ellipticus, and, 
 therefore, needs no further notice. 
 
 — eus. This Latin termination has been occasionally employed, but 
 as it implies "made of," it is evidently seldom, if ever, admissible in palae- 
 ontology. The term eboraceus, from eboracum, the Latin name for 
 York, is a misnomer and should have been eboracensis. 
 
 — idae. This Greek patronymic has come into general use as a con- 
 venient termination to express the resemblance running through a 
 family. 
 
 B. It is recommended that the assemblages of genera, termed families, should be uni- 
 formly named, by adding the termination idse to the name of the earliest known, or most 
 typically characterized genus in them ; and that their subdivisions, termed subfamilies, 
 
xii CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PALAEONTOLOGY. 
 
 should be similarly constructed, with the termination inx. These words are formed by 
 changing the last syllable of the genitive case into idx or inn; as strir, Strigis, Strigidx, 
 Buceros, Bucerotis, Bucerotidx, not Strixklx, Bwstidse. — [Recommendations. 
 
 It should be borne in mind that in the termination — idae, the i is 
 short, but in — inae it is long. 
 
 — inus. This Latin termination is of wider application and classic 
 usage sanctions its application to both common and proper names, though 
 less commonly to the names of persons. Latin usage, however, restricted 
 its application more than modern scientific practice has done, and applied 
 it mainly to proper names, local terms and living beings; as caninus, 
 alpinus. Hence, such words as rugatinus, sulcatinus, secalinus, taxinus 
 and velutinus are at best suspicious if not illegitimate. This termination, 
 however employed, is subject to the laws given under — ensis. 
 
 — ites. This termination was early adopted by naturalists to express 
 the fossil nature of the specimen and so prevent confusion, while at the 
 same time expressing resemblance to some existing genus or species. 
 It is a contraction of the Greek word lithos, a stone. In most instances, 
 however, it coalesces with the last vowel of the root and becomes long 
 in compensation. This and long usage in many words, such as Ammo- 
 nites, Belemnites, Pyrites, have completely established the long i, while 
 the gender is determined by that of the Greek word to be masculine. 
 All specific terms in the genus must, therefore, be of this gender. 
 
 — oides. This Greek termination, signifying " like," should be added 
 only to the stems of words of Greek origin. No connecting vowel is 
 necessary, as one already exists in it. Thus we have dactylos, dacty- 
 loides; discos, discoides. A Latin form is often used, — oideus, which, 
 however, obeys the same laws ; except that the Greek termination is alike 
 in all genders, while the Latin is inflected as Latin adjectives of similar 
 termination. 
 
 d. Compound terms.— In forming compound terms as generic or spe- 
 cific names, care should be taken to connect them rightly. If an adjective 
 of three terminations or a noun of the second Latin declension composes 
 the former part of the word, either i or o may be employed as a connect- 
 ing vowel, the choice being largely determined by the ear. Thus sulco- 
 marginal is better than sulci- mar ginatus, and crassicaulis than cras- 
 socaulis. If, however, the adjective has but one or two terminations, 
 or the noun be of the first, third or fourth Latin declension, the connecting 
 vowel i should always be employed as tenuistriatus, pinniformis, ilici- 
 folius, retiformis, cornifer. The connecting vowel o is admissible by 
 Greek usage in all declensions, as Ulodendron, Cycloconcha, Syringo- 
 dendron, Alethopteris, Dictyonema, Dictyopteris, except that where the 
 first part of the word is an adjective ending in—ys, it is shorter and at 
 the same time consonant with classic usage to employ no connecting 
 vowel at all; thus, pachydermia, euryteines, oxynotus, Platy stoma, etc., 
 are better than pacliyoderma, euryoteines, oxyonotus, Platyostoma, etc. 
 e. Spelling of new names. — 
 In writing zoological names, the rules of Latin orthography must be adhered to. 
 
CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PALEONTOLOGY. xiii 
 
 In Latinizing Greek words, there are certain rules of orthography known to classical 
 scholars which must never he departed from. For instance, the names which modern 
 authors have written Aipuknemia, Zenophasia, poiocephala, must, according to the laws of 
 etymology, he spelt JEpycnemia, Xenopliasia, and pcecephala. In Latinizing modern words, 
 the rules of classic usage do not apply, and all that we can do is to give to such terms 
 as classical an appearance as we can, consistently with the preservation of their 
 etymology. In the case of European words, whose orthography is fixed, it is best to re- 
 tain the original form, even though it may include letters and combinations unknown in 
 Latin. Such words for instance as Woodwardi, Knighti, BullocH, EschscMtzi, would be 
 quite unintelligible, if they were Latinized into Vudvardi, CnicJiti, Bullocci, Essolzi, etc. 
 But words of barbarous origin, having no fixed orthography, are more pliable, and hence, 
 when adopted into the Latin, they should be rendered as classical in appearance as is 
 consistent with the preservation of their original sound. Thus, the words Tockus, 
 awsuree, argoondat, kundoo. etc., should, when Latinized, have been written Toccus, arwire, 
 argunda, cundu, etc. Such words ought, in all practicable cases, to have a Latin termina- 
 tion given them, especially if they are used generically. 
 
 This rule, with its limitations and exceptions has been not seldom 
 departed from in naming fossils. Many names have gained currency, 
 which are needlessly unclassical. At the same time, we meet with 
 marked examples of compliance. Such names as the following stand out 
 prominently — sancti ludovici, cestriensis, are far more correct and 
 pleasing than louisi and chesterensis, leseuriae or lescuri than lesquer- 
 euxi, while Lepidophloios, of Sternberg, should be spelled Lepido- 
 phlocus, in accordance with Latin rather than Greek custom. 
 
 It is almost unnecessary to add that when a new term is derived from 
 sources purely classical, care should be taken to spell it accurately, and 
 not to disguise or conceal its origin by any attempts to eliminate a letter 
 or two. This, however, has been sometimes done, as for instance, in the 
 name Stenocisma, Conrad, (in which the etymology is masked by the 
 misspelling) and which will be found written Stenoschisma. 
 
 f. Mythological nam.es. — In regard to the numerous mythological 
 names, especially those given by the late palaeontologist, to the Canadian 
 Survey, Mr. E. Billings, the following recommendations of the British 
 Association deserve notice: 
 
 d. Mythological or historical twines. — When these have no perceptible reference or allu- 
 sion to the characters of the object on which they are conferred, they may be properly 
 regarded as unmeaning and in bad taste. Thus, the generic names Lesbia, Leilus, Remus, 
 Corydon, Pasiphx,ha,ve been applied to a humming-bird, a butterfly, a beetle, a parrot, and 
 a crab, respectively, without any perceptible association of ideas. But mythological 
 names may sometimes be used as generic, with the same propriety as technical ones, in 
 cases where a direct allusion can be traced between the narrated actions of a personage 
 and' the observed habits or structure of an animal. Tfms, when the name Progne is 
 given to a swallow, Clotho to a spider, Hydra to a polyp, Athene to an owl, Nestor to a grey- 
 headed parrot, etc., a pleasing and beneficial connection is established between classical 
 literature and physical science. — Recommendations. 
 
 Mr. Billings was, probably, led to adopt the practice by the increas- 
 ing difficulty of finding unpreoccupied names and an unwillingness to 
 encumber the science with more synonyms. 
 
CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PALJEONTOLGY. 
 
 g. Personal names. — 
 
 g. Specific names derived from persons —So long as these complimentary designations are 
 used with moderation, and are restricted to persons of eminence as scientific zoologists, 
 they may be employed with propriety in cases where expressive or characteristic words 
 are not to be found. But we fully concur with those who censure the practice of naming 
 species after persons of no scientific reputation, as curiosity dealers (e. g. Caniveti Boisson- 
 eauti), Peruvian priestesses (Cora amazilia), or Hottentots (Klassi). 
 
 h. Generic names derived from persons.— Words of this class have been very extensively 
 used in botany, and therefore it would have been well to exclude them wholly from 
 zoology, for the sake of obtaining a memoria technica by which the name of a genus would 
 at once tell us to which of the kingdoms of nature it belonged. Some few personal 
 generic names have, however, crept into zoology, as Cuvieria, Mulleria, Rossia, Lessonia, etc., 
 but they are very rare in comparison with those of botany, and it is, perhaps, desirable 
 not to add to their number.— Recommendations. 
 
 Another objection to this kind of name, so many of which have crept 
 into palseontological nomenclature of late years, is that they yield with 
 difficulty, in many instances, to the plastic hand of the classical linguist. 
 • The collector or student who stands godfather to a newly discovered 
 fossil, and seeks immortality for some friend or acquaintance by making 
 it his namesake, naturally wishes to keep the name as little changed as 
 possible, lest his purpose should in part fail. On the other hand the 
 classical scholar would rather see the name reduced in some degree to 
 Latin form so that it may offend the eye and ear as little as possible. 
 Between these two a contest arises, and hence we have various forms for 
 words which should be alike, as Barrandi, barrandei; Moori, moorei. 
 Perhaps in this respect it would be wisest to adopt the recommendations 
 of the British Association Committee, quoted on page xi, with a slight 
 modification, and add i for a genitive case where the name ends in a 
 consonant, in a, o or w, and ii when it ends in e, i or t y, omitting in the 
 latter case the final vowel of the name. 
 
 h. Nouns as specific terms. — In those cases, and they are numerous, 
 where a noun is used as a specific name, no change can be made in its 
 termination. Hence, however, inconsistent it may appear to some to 
 see Orthis biloba and Orthis circulus, Productus cora and Productus 
 costatus, side by side, such combinations are accurate. It may, however, 
 be added that adjective terms are preferable, whenever possible. 
 
 i. Inelegant names. — With the following extract we leave this part 
 of our subject: 
 
 Names of harsh and inelegant pronunciation. — These words are grating to the ear, either 
 from inelegance of form, as Huhua, Yuhina, Craxirex, Eschscholtzia ; or, from too great 
 length, as chirostrongylostinus, Opetiorhynchus, brachypodioides, thecodontosaurus, not to mention 
 the Eualiolimnosaurus crocodUoceplialoides of a German naturalist. It is needless to enlarge 
 on the advantage of consulting euphony in the construction of our language. As a gen- 
 eral rule it may be recommended to avoid introducing words of more than five syllables. 
 
 We have now pointed out the principal rocks and shoals which lie in the path of the 
 nomenclator, and it will be seen that the navigation through them is by no means easy. 
 The task of constructing a language which shall supply the demands of scientific accuracy 
 on the one hand, and of literary elegance on the other, is not to be inconsiderately 
 undertaken by unqualified persons. Our nomenclature presents but too many flaws and 
 
CONSTRUCTION OF SYSTEMATIC NAMES IN PAL.EONTOLGY. xv 
 
 inelegancies already, and as the stern law of priority forbids their removal, it follows that 
 they must remain as monuments of the bad taste or bad scholarship of their authors to 
 the latest ages in which zoology shall be studied. 
 
 Etymologies and types of new genera to be stated. — It is obvious that the names of genera 
 would, in general, be far more carefully constructed, and their definitions would be 
 rendered more exact, if authors would adopt the following suggestion: 
 
 It is recommended that in denning new genera, the etymology of the name should 
 be always stated, and that one species should be invariably selected as a type or standard 
 of reference. 
 
 The following extract, from the same code, also bears on the point 
 in question: 
 
 Nonsense names. — Some authors having found difficulty in selecting generic names 
 which have not been used before, have adopted the plan of coining words at random, 
 without any derivation or meaning whatever. The following are examples: Viralva, 
 Xema, Azeca, Assiminia, Quedius, Spisula. To the same class we may refer anagrams of 
 other generic names, Dacleo and Cedola of Alcedo, Zapornia of Dorzana, etc. Such verbal 
 trifling as this is in very bad taste, and is especially calculated to bring the science into 
 contempt. It finds no precedent in the Augustan age of Latin, but can be compared 
 only to the puerile quibblings of the Middle Ages. It is contrary to the genius of all 
 languages, which appear never to produce new words by spontaneous generation, but 
 always to derive them from some other source, however distant or obscure. And it is 
 peculiarly annoying to the etymologist, who, after seeking in vain through the vast store- 
 house of human language for the parentage of such words, discovers at last that he has 
 been pursuing an ignis fatuus. 
 
 Besides having often to follow such will-o'-the-wisps, any student 
 who undertakes the task, will soon find it no easy one to ferret out the 
 origin and meaning of veritable scientific names, often made up without 
 distinct allusion to any conspicuous character of the fossil in question, and, 
 occasionally, by men whose acquaintance with the languages is of the 
 slightest kind. After all, care and pains, not a few malformed words and 
 barbarous terms too long current to be now withdrawn from circulation, 
 must ever remain, as corresponding words survive in our common English 
 tongue ; marking some age of folly or ignorance in by-gone days of the 
 language. Such terms will serve as memorials, fossil relics, to show to 
 future times the freaks of linguistic development in the early days of 
 Palaeontology. 
 
INTRODUCTION. 
 
 The most ancient rocks known to man had their immediate origin in sedi- 
 mentary deposition at the bottom of an ocean. At this point commences Ge- 
 ology ; for previous to this period nothing has been ascertained as to the condition 
 of the Earth. It commences at the base of the lowest rocks discovered, and 
 from thence it investigates the overlying strata, the changes that have taken 
 place, the lapse of time, and the development of animal life, down to the present 
 moment. 
 
 Were it possible to obtain a transverse section of these rocks at their maxi- 
 mum thickness, at any particular locality, there would be presented to the view 
 an exposure of more than thirty miles, representing the geological column, which 
 is regarded as one continuous whole, from the base to the top. 
 
 Geologists have adopted various divisions and subdivisions of this column, 
 for the purpose of illustrating the different aspects of the science. But that 
 which subdivides it into groups seems to be the most natural and systematic, 
 and is the classification now generally preferred. 
 
 In the infanc}^ of geological science, the known strata were divided into for- 
 mations, each of which was supposed to represent a geological period, during 
 which no marked changes occurred in the condition of the Earth or in its or- 
 ganic life. The commencement of each formation was supposed to mark a new 
 epoch of creation, and its close to represent a great cataclysm that destroyed all 
 vegetable and animal organisms. Modern geologists, however, have determined 
 that the evidence of special creations and cataclysms is entirely wanting, and 
 that the formations do not mark geological periods of repose, nor are they any 
 more distinct in their character, from each other, than are the groups into which 
 they have been subdivided. 
 
 The palaeozoic rocks, as understood by geologists, embrace the Permian 
 group, and all that is below it. The subdivision into Archaean, Silurian, Devo- 
 nian and Carboniferous formations is retained as a matter of convenience, for the 
 purpose of directing attention, in a general way, to a particular quarter of these 
 rocks. The Archaean (most ancient) are the metamorphic rocks. The Silurian 
 is next in order. The Devonian, from Devonshire, England, is a much smaller 
 formation, and is characterized by its fish remains. The Carboniferous forma- 
 tion, so-called from the fact that it contains the great coal deposits of Europe, 
 concludes the series of paheozoic rocks. Other formations contain coal deposits, 
 but they are otherwise so distinct, that they are never in danger of being classed 
 with this formation as originally defined. 
 
2 STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 The names used in American Geology, for the purpose of the classification 
 of the strata into groups, have been derived, generally, from the localities at 
 which the rocks have been studied and described. This method of nomenclature 
 is preferred to any other, because the name itself can never mislead as to the 
 mineral structure or relative position of the rocks, and the geologist may visit 
 and study the locality with the certainty that he is investigating the typical 
 group. Prof. Rogers conceived the idea of improving the nomenclature of the 
 palaeozoic rocks by dividing them into fifteen parts and giving them names sig- 
 nificant of their relative ages. This he did by using words suggesting meta- 
 phorically different parts of a day, as follows: Primal, Auroral, Matinal, Le- 
 vant, Surgent, Scalent, Premeridian, Meridian, Post Meridian, Cadent, Vergent, 
 Ponent, Vespertine, Umbral and Serai, meaning respectively the formations of 
 the Dawn, Daybreak, Morning, Sunrise, Mounting Day, Climbing Day, Forenoon, 
 Noon, Afternoon, Declining Day, Descending Day, Sunset, Evening, Dusk and 
 Nightfall. Unfortunately for his attempt to substitute another, for the geographi- 
 cal nomenclature then quite well established and susceptible of indefinite ex- 
 pansion, without the use of conflicting terms or words that could mislead the 
 student, there were several extensive groups of rucks full of the remains of ani- 
 mal life, as yet unexplored, and consequently quite unknown to his system. 
 For obvious reasons the nomenclature suggested by Mr. Rogers has not been 
 adopted, and in all probability never will be. 
 
 The Archa&an formation is divided into the Laurentian and Huronian groups. 
 The Laurentian series of metamorphic rocks forrfis the base of the geological 
 column, and has an estimated thickness in Canada of 32,750 feet. It takes its 
 name from the Laurentian mountains of Canada. The Eozoon .canadense, a 
 fossil Rhizopod, is found at the base of the Grenville band of limestone, which is 
 near the middle of this series. The estimated depth of the Laurentian series to 
 the lowest place at which this fossil has been found is 16,500 feet. Sir W. E. 
 Logan describes the Grenville band as follows : 
 
 " The general character of the rock connected with the fossil produces the 
 impression that it is a great foraminiferal reef, in which the pyroxene masses 
 represent a more ancient portion, which having died, and become much broken 
 up, and worn into cavities and deep recesses, afforded a seat for a new growth of 
 foraminifera, represented by the calcareo serpentinous part. This in its turn be- 
 came broken up, leaving, however, in some places, uninjured portions of the or- 
 ganic structure. The main difference between this foraminiferal reef, and more 
 recent coral reefs, seems to be, that while with the latter are usually associated 
 many shells and other organic remains, in the more ancient one the only remains 
 yet found are those of the animal which built the reef." 
 
 The next series of rocks overlying the Laurentian is called the Huronian, 
 which, on the north shore of Lake Huron and to the eastward, consists ofquartz- 
 ites, chloritic slates, bands of limestone chert, jasper and slate conglomerates, 
 not less than 18,000 feet in thickness. 
 
 On Lake Superior, Sault Ste. Marie, Mamainse, and other places, it is 
 exposed from 10,000 to 16,208 feet in thickness. An approximate estimate of 
 the thickness of this series on Michipicoten Island, says Mr . McFarlane, is 
 18,500 feet. And if we compare the rocks of Michipicoten Island with those of 
 
STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 3 
 
 Mamainse, it would appear that the lower rocks of the latter series do not come 
 to the surface at Michipicoten Island, and that the higher rocks of the Michipi- 
 coten series have not been developed at Mamainse, or lie beneath the waters of 
 the lake to the southwest of the promontory. It would, therefore, appear just in 
 estimating the thickness of the upper copper-bearing rocks of the eastern part 
 of Lake Superior (which are Huronian), to add to the Mamainse series the above- 
 mentioned 4,000 feet of resinous traps, or porphyrites, which would make the 
 whole thickness at least 20,000 feet. (Geo. of Can., 1863, pp. 55, 67, 86 ; Geo. of 
 Can., 1866, pp. 132, 141.) 
 
 In addition to the Eozoon canadense, only a few fossil species have been 
 described from the Huronian rocks, and these have been placed in genera of 
 uncertain affinit}', to wit: Aspidella, Stenotheca, and Scenella. 
 
 The metamorphic strata, equivalent to the Laurentian and Huronian series 
 of Canada are described in Safford's Geological Survey of Tennessee, as many 
 thousand feet thick. Fossil remains of foraminifera have been found in them. 
 They have also been found in the metamorphic rocks of Europe; so that these 
 rocks are no longer called azoic. 
 
 Next above the Archaean subdivision lies the great Silurian formation, first 
 determined by Sir R. L Murchison, and named in memory of the ancient Silures, who 
 inhabited Wales, where he first studied the exposure of the rocks. He subdivi- 
 ded it into the Lower Silurian and Upper Silurian formations, and these names 
 have been adopted in this countiy. The Lower Silurian is much the most exten- 
 sive, and is divided into groups or subdivisions, in ascending order as follows : 
 
 1. The St. John's Group, consisting of black shales and sandstones, resting 
 conformably upon older schistose rocks, at St. John's, New Brunswick, 3,000 
 feet thick. (Geo. of Can., 1866, p. 235.) 
 
 This Group of rocks contains the remains of Paradoxides, Conocephalites, 
 Arionellus, Microdiscus, Agnostus, Orthis, and other fossil genera. The Para- 
 doxides beds near Boston are supposed to belong to it. 
 
 2. The Potsdam Group, which takes its name from Potsdam in Northern 
 New York, where it is well developed, and consists of a fine-grained, even-bedded 
 sandstone, traversed by parallel joints. The Potsdam Group is sometimes divi- 
 ded into Upper .Potsdam and Lower Potsdam Groups. The sandstones and 
 limestones on the north shore of Belle Isle, and the rocks which, in the State of 
 Vermont are called the Georgia slates, and the red sand-rock, belong to the 
 Lower Potsdam Group. The Upper Potsdam Group is displayed in Minnesota, 
 Wisconsin, New York, Pennsylvania, and other States. In Tennessee the Pots- 
 dam Group is divided into three great sub-groups, in ascending order as follows: 
 1. The Ocoee conglomerate and slates; 2. Chilhowee sandstone; 3. Knox 
 Group. The Ocoee conglomerate and slates takes its name from Ocoee river, 
 and is 10,000 feet thick. The Chilhowee sandstone takes its name from the 
 Chilhowee Mountain, and is 2,000 feet thick. The Knox Group takes its name 
 from Knox county, and is 7,000 feet thick; making the total thickness of the 
 Potsdam in Tennessee 19,000 feet. It is from 500 to 2,500 feet thick in Canada, 
 2,020 at Bonne Bay, Newfoundland, 1,147 feet at the Straits of Belle Isle, about 
 2,000 feet in Pennsylvania and West Virginia, and from 600 to 800 feet thick in 
 Wisconsin and Minnesota. 
 
4 STEATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 The fossils which chiefly characterize the Potsdam Group belong to the 
 genera Palseophycus, Scolithus, Archseocyathus ; Obolella, Camarella, Dinobol- 
 us, Lingulella, *Salterella, Bathyurus, Conocephalites, Olenellus and Dicello- 
 cephalus. Gasteropoda and Cephalopoda first make their appearance in the 
 Upper Potsdam. Poor specimens of Cystidea and Crinoidea have been found 
 
 in this Group. 
 
 3. The Calciferous Group, named from the calcareo-silicious character of the 
 rocks. It was called the Calciferous sandrock and Transition rock by Eaton, 
 and the Barnegat limestone, Newburgh limestone, Warwick limestone, Oolitic 
 limestone, Fucoidal layers, and slaty limestone, in the early Geological Reports 
 of New York. It is divided into the Lower and Upper Calciferous Groups. The 
 Upper Calciferous is found in Newfoundland about 1,000 feet in thickness. The 
 Lower Calciferous is the original Calciferous Group of New York. It is ex- 
 posed in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Tennessee, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Virginia, 
 Canada, and other places, usually less than 500 feet in thickness. It is found, 
 however, in Missouri 1,315 feet thick, where it is subdivided into 1st, 2d, 3d and 
 4th Magnesian limestone, and in Newfoundland 1,839 feet thick. The St. Peter's 
 sandstone of the Northwest, named from its great development on the St. Peter's 
 river, belongs to this group. There is in Newfoundland an important series of 
 strata, having a thickness of 2,061 feet, known as division N. of the Newfound- 
 land rocks, which should probably be regarded as part of the Upper Calciferous 
 Group. If so, it would give us a maximum thickness of about 4,000 feet for 
 the Calciferous Group. 
 
 The Lamellibranchiata first make their appearance in this Group, while the 
 Gasteropoda and Cephalopoda become numerous. Pleurotomaria canadensis is 
 known to pass from the Potsdam into this Group. 
 
 4. The Quebec Group, which takes its name from the city of Quebec, in 
 Canada, where it was first studied, and is subdivided into the Levis, Lauzon, 
 and Sillery Groups. The Levis division, which takes its name from Point Levis 
 in Canada, comprehends the Philipsburgh rocks which are 4,860 feet thick, in 
 addition to 1,385 feet of the Orleans section, making the whole division 6,145 
 feet thick. The Lauzon division, which takes its name from Lauzon, in Canada, 
 is about 4,000 feet in thickness. And the Sillery division, which takes its name 
 from Sillery Cove in Canada, is 2,000 feet in thickness, making the maximum 
 depth of the three divisions of this Group 12,145 feet. The Levis division is 
 highly fossiliferous, while only a few fossils are known from other divisions. 
 Some of the fossils of this Group are found both in the Chazy and Calciferous 
 Groups, and the Canadian geologists for a time supposed it to be the equivalent, 
 in some way or other, of these rocks; but later investigations have shown that it 
 has a fauna of its own, and that it offers beds of passage from the Potsdam to 
 the Trenton fauna, in addition to those of the Chazy and Calciferous. 
 
 5. The Chazy Group, which takes its name from Chazy, Clinton county, 
 New York, and has an extensive geographical range over New York and Canada, 
 is seldom found over 300 feet in thickness. The upper part of the 1st Magne- 
 sian limestone in Missouri may be the equivalent of this Group, or rather the 
 dark bluish gray semi-crystalline limestones, interstratified with the grayish 
 drab earthy magnesian varieties, destitute of chert, which crop out in some 
 
STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 5 
 
 places on top of the 1st Magnesian, and are usually classed with it. The Group 
 has likewise been doubtfully identified in Wisconsin and other Northwestern 
 localities. 
 
 6. The Birdseye Limestone, which is a well marked Group of rocks in New 
 York. The rocks break with a conchoidal fracture, and the surface presents 
 numerous crystalline spots due to calcspar in the tubes of Tetradium fbratum, 
 which it contains in abundance, and from which the Group takes its name. It 
 is not, however, so distinct in its fossil remains as to be characterized and deter- 
 mined elsewhere, and therefore some geologists treat the name as a synonym for 
 the Black River Group. 
 
 7. The Black River Group (including the Birdseye limestone or its equiva- 
 lent) which is found in New York, Pennsylvania, Canada and the Island of An- 
 ticosti, and is supposed to underlie Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, for it is again 
 found cropping out under the Trenton Group in Missouri and other places west 
 of the Mississippi. It has a very wide geographical range, and in Pennsylvania 
 attains the important thickness of 5,500 feet. 
 
 The Orthoceratites, which commenced an existence in the Upper Potsdam, 
 reach their greatest development in this Group of rocks. Some shells are found 
 more than ten feet in length and exceeding a foot in diameter. Other Cephalo- 
 poda are found in abundance, and several new genera commence an existence. 
 
 The synonyms for the Black River Group in the early geological reports 
 are Mo7iawk limestone, Base of the Trenton limestone, Blue limestone, Black 
 marble of Isle La Motte, Bald Mountain limestone, sparry limerocks, Transi- 
 tion chequered limestone, Seven foot Tier and Metalliferous limerock. 
 
 8. The Trenton Group, which takes its name from Trenton, Oneida county, 
 New York, is found almost everywhere on the Continent, where the Lower Silu- 
 rian rocks are exposed. In New York, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Illinois, Mis- 
 souri and Canada, its greatest thickness does not exceed 1,000 feet; while on the 
 Island of Anticosti it reaches 1,700, and in Tennessee 2,500 feet. The Galena 
 limestone of Illinois and Wisconsin, and the Cape Girardeau limestone of Mis- 
 souri, belong to it. 
 
 The limestones of this Group are literally a mass of fossils, and withal so 
 well preserved, that several hundred species and many genera have been defined. 
 No Group of paheozoic strata has been studied with more interest, or has yielded 
 more facts beneficial to science. It is a magnificent museum of well preserved 
 shells, representing almost every character of the ancient population of the sea. 
 
 9. The Utica Slate Group, which takes its name from Utica, New York, and 
 seems to be confined in its Geographical range to Pennsylvania, New York and 
 Canada, and reaches its greatest thickness in Pennsylvania at 400 feet. Its syn- 
 onyms are Black slate, Pulaski shales, Frankfort slate and Lorraine shales. 
 
 10. The Hudson River Group, which takes its name from the exposure on 
 Hudson River, New York, has an extensive geographical range, and reaches its 
 greatest thickness in Canada, at 2,000 feet. The fossils which characterize it 
 are nearly the same as those which characterize the Trenton Group. The inter- 
 vention of the Utica slate in New York and Canada furnishes the only excuse 
 for separating the two groups. In the Western and Southern States, where the 
 Utica slate is absent from the strata, the upper part of the Lower Silurian is 
 
6 STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 generally called the Cincinnati Group, though in Tennessee it is known as the 
 Nashville Group, or more generally it is known as the Blue Limestone. The 
 Cincinnati Group, as exposed in Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky, with which I am 
 better acquainted than with any other Group of rocks, will receive more than a 
 passing notice. The total thickness of the exposure will scarcely exceed 1,000 
 feet, the lower part of which is probably the equivalent of the upper part of the 
 Trenton Group, and the remainder belongs to the Hudson River Group. The 
 Cincinnati Group, therefore, is of value as a technical name only so far as it ex- 
 presses the absence of the Utica slate, and points to the locality of its exposure. 
 
 Some fossils, as Bellerophon bilobatus, Strophomena altemata, Zygospira 
 modesta, Leptena sericea, Buthotrephis gracilis, Beyrichia chambersi, Calymene 
 senaria, Isotelus gigas and Isotelus megistos pass entirely through the Group. 
 Trinucleus concentricus, Triarthrus becki, Orthis multisecta, 0. emacerata, 
 Streptorhynchus hallia, Ambonychia bcllistriata, Modiolopsis cincinnatiensis, 
 Cycloconcha mediocardinalis, Lichenocrinus crater if or mis and Chetetes (?) 
 jamesi, are confined to the lower half of the group. Glyptocrinus decadactylus, 
 G. dyeri, G. nealli, G. fornshelli, Lichenocrinus tuberculatus, Streptorhynchus 
 filitexta, S. sub tenia, S. sulcata, S. sinuata, S. nutans, Orthis insculpta, 0. sub- 
 quadrata, Bhynchonella capax, B. dentata, Cypricardites haynesi, Anomalo- 
 donta gigantea, A. alata, Anodontopsis milleri, Favistella stellata, Tetradium 
 Jibratum and Streptelasma corniculum, are found only in the upper part of the 
 Group. Some fossils occupy only a few feet in vertical range, as Orthis in- 
 sculpta, Orthis retrdrsa, 0. emacerata, Glyptocrinus nealli and Streptorhynchus 
 sulcata. These facts teach us that during the deposition of the rocks, the fauna 
 of the ocean was constant^ changing. One form ceasing to exist at a given 
 place at one time, and another at another time ; a new species appearing at one 
 period, and another at another period. Not, however, indicating either the ex- 
 tinction or creation of a new species, because though the Orthis insculpta has a 
 vertical range of only about three feet, it is found in the Trenton Group, in 
 New York, in much earlier strata ; and substantially the same may be • said of 
 other forms. 
 
 The Group of rocks, throughout its entire thickness, is composed of alter- 
 nate laj^ers of blue marl and limestone, of varying thickness. In some places 
 the marl is 6 or 8 feet thick, without a layer of stone. At other places, one layer 
 of stone, 4, 6 or 8 inches in thickness, follows another, with intervening layers 
 of marl, of much less thickness, for 40 or 50 feet. It is rare to find a layer of 
 limestone more than a foot in thickness. All the layers are broken into small, 
 irregular pieces, sufficiently large, however, for cellar and other light stone work 
 for which they are used. When the blue marl is exposed for a few years to the 
 action of the weather, it gradually loses its color, and finally presents a dull 
 gray appearance. Where the marl in the bed, only a few feet from the surface, 
 has been changed to the dull gray color, crystals of the sulphate of lime are 
 found on the layers of stone and in the marl. The silicious matter prevails over 
 the carbonate of lime in the layers of marl, while the carbonate of lime is much 
 in excess of the silicious matter in the layers of stone, due in part, at least, to 
 the fact that the stones are almost literally a mass of more or less comminuted 
 shells, corals and crinoids. There is nothing, therefore, in the general character

 and appearance of the stones and marl to indicate the changing character of the 
 fossil contents, to which I shall now call more particular attention. 
 
 The Zygospira modesta is found throughout the group, varying in size from 
 a small pin-head to a pea. The largest size has been called Zygospira cincin- 
 natiensis. The smaller specimens differ in their proportional length and breadth 
 and in the proportional elevation of the middle of the ventral valve, and corres- 
 ponding depression of the mesial sinus of the dorsal valve. The larger speci- 
 mens differ in the same respect; and as the number of plications is but little in- 
 creased, they become larger and coarser. The same species from the Trenton 
 Group, at Ottawa, Canada, is more elongated, and more finely plicated than the 
 Cincinnati forms; while specimens from the Trenton Group of Southern Minne- 
 sota are scarcely distinguishable from Cincinnati specimens of medium size. 
 This species passes through the Trenton, Utica and Hudson River Groups, and 
 is found in the Clinton Group. 
 
 Strophomena alternata is found throughout the Group. Specimens secured 
 within 200 feet of low water mark at Cincinnati, are large, thin, frail, and some- 
 what flat, but in their markings resemble the more profound specimens from the 
 Trenton Group of New York and Ottawa, Canada. Many specimens found from 
 350 to 450 feet above low water mark are peculiarly thick, firm and heavy. From 
 450 feet above low water mark to the top of the Group .the specimens are, gener- 
 ally, proportionately longer on the hinge line and more distinctly eared than they 
 are below, and frequently much larger. One form of these long eared specimens 
 has been called variety loxorhytis. The variety nasuta is most distinctly 
 marked at an elevation from 400 to 450 feet above low water mark, where it is 
 thicker and deeper than the same variety from the Trenton Group of New York 
 and Canada. The variety alternistriata is most common in the middle and up- 
 per part of the Group. The variety fracta is found only in a vertical range of a 
 few feet about the middle of the Group. This species is widely distributed and 
 ranges from the Chazy to the Clinton Groups, passing through a great many 
 forms, which, if constant or characteristic of particular geological horizons, would 
 be regarded as good species. 
 
 Leptena sericea is found throughout the Group, changing at times in size, 
 length of the hinge line and comparative thickness. It is a common form in the 
 Trenton, Hudson River and Clinton Groups. 
 
 Strophomena tenuistriata is frail and rare in the lower part of the Group, 
 but quite common and well preserved in the upper part. This, including its 
 nearly related forms, under the names of rhomboidaUs and depressa, is almost 
 world wide in its distribution, and ranges from the Trenton Group to the Lower 
 Carboniferous. One could not hesitate, however, in separating the Lower Silu- 
 rian from the Upper Silurian forms, and these again from the Devonian and 
 Lower Carboniferous forms, while remarking the somewhat general resemblance 
 between them. 
 
 Streptorhynchus hallia is found in the lower 200 feet of the Group, and is 
 not known to occur elsewhere. 8. planoconvexa occupies only a few feet in ver- 
 tical range about the middle of the Group. S. nutans, S.planumbona, 8. sub - 
 tenia and S.filitexta are confined in their range to the upper part of the Group; 
 though 8. subtenta is found in the Hudson River Group at English Head, Anti- 
 costi, and S. jilitexta in the Trenton Group of New York. 
 
8 STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 Streptorhynchus sinuata has- a vertical range of only a few feet below the 
 middle of the Group, and S. sulcata has a vertical range of only a few feet near 
 the upper part of the Group. 
 
 Orthis bellula, 0. plicatella, 0. fissicosta, 0. ella and Cythere cincinnatiensis 
 are confined within a vertical range of about 100 feet, near the middle of the 
 Group. 0. plicatella, O. triplicatella, 0. Jissicosta and O. jamesi vary much 
 in size and proportional length and breadth and general appearance, and some- 
 times run so close together that it is only by close observation that the species 
 are separated. Orthis ella varies so much in size and number of plications that 
 it could be separated into three forms sufficiently distinct to have specific names, 
 if the forms were found only in distinct Groups of rocks. But, probably, no 
 shell indicates the unceasing change and development of animal life during the 
 deposition of the Group as much as the Orthis lynx. It is found of all dimen- 
 sions, from 1-16 of an inch to 2 inches in length, breadth and thickness. The 
 mesial sinus is usually occupied with three plications, and the mesial fold with 
 four; but sometimes the mesial sinus has only two plications, and sometimes it 
 has four and even five, while the mesial fold always contains one more than the 
 sinus, if the specimen is regularly developed. The more profound the sinus, the 
 fewer plications in it. Some specimens are much longer than they are wide; 
 others much wider than«long. Some specimens, with hinge-line shorter than the 
 width of the shell, become globose and nearly as round as an apple; others have 
 the hinge-line prolonged to double the width of the shell, and have nearly the 
 form of Spirifera mucronata. Small specimens of the globose form are marked 
 with about sixteen plications, while the long-eared forms have as many as forty 
 on each valve. Some specimens have thin shells; while others, no larger, have 
 very thick ones. These extreme varieties do not occupy the same layers of rock, 
 but different strata. Considerable variation exists, however, in specimens occu- 
 pying the same layer; and so many intermediate forms are found in different 
 layers, that the extremes in the Group are linked together. 
 
 The maximum thickness of the lower Silurian, as shown b}^the Groups men- 
 tioned, is 48,745 feet; and the fossiliferous part of the metamorphic rocks, 36,- 
 500 feet; making a total of 85,245 feet, or a little over sixteen miles from the 
 top of the Hudson River Group to the base of the fossiliferous rocks. In other 
 words, if all the Metamorphic and Lower Silurian Groups were fully represented, 
 at their greatest thickness, on the Hudson River or at Cincinnati, we would ex- 
 pect to find fossils by digging or boring at these places for sixteen miles. The 
 fact is probable, however, that part of the earth was dry land, while another part 
 was covered with an ocean; and that the dry land was worn away by the action 
 of rain, and other causes, while the ocean bed, gradually filled up, as the Atlantic 
 fills to-day, by sedimentary deposition. There is no evidence of dry land, during 
 all this period; but the negative evidence to the contrary, in the total absence of 
 land plants and animals. Dry land may have existed, however, in the shape of 
 barren rocks and disintegrated matter, for mechanical deposition ; but if it did 
 not exist, it is presumed that deposition took place more rapidly at the bed of 
 the ocean at one place than at another, and that the ocean currents removed 
 what had been deposited at one place, and carried it to another; so that, in either 
 case, the maximum thickness of each Group is the measure of the lapse of time 
 
STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 9 
 
 that transpired during its deposition on the ocean-bed; and these, when placed 
 together, in their order of deposition, constitute the true geological column. 
 
 The Upper Silurian rocks are subdivided in ascending order, as follows: 
 
 1. Oneida Conglomerate, which takes its name from Oneida county, New York. 
 
 2. Medina sandstone, which takes its name from Medina, New York. 3. Clinton 
 Group, which takes its name from Clinton, New York. 4. Niagara Group, 
 which takes its name from its development at the Falls of Niagara. 5. Onon- 
 daga Salt Group, which takes its name from Onondaga, New York, where the 
 salt springs have been extensively wrought; and 6. Lower Helderberg Group, 
 which takes its name from the Helderberg Mountains of New York. 
 
 The Oneida Conglomerate has been called the Shawangunk Grit, the Shawan- 
 gunk Conglomerate and the Millstone Grit. The word Shawangunk, signify- 
 ing, in the Indian language of the aborigines, White rock, has been regarded as 
 quite appropriate, because it is expressive of the character of the rocks. The 
 greatest thickness of this Group in New York and Pennsylvania is about 500 
 feet. The rocks are of such a character that they have not preserved the fossil 
 remains with the exception of imperfect fucoidal impressions. 
 
 The Medina sandstone is usually of a red color, with the exception of a gray 
 band near the top. Between the mouth of the Niagara river and Lewiston, it is 
 350 feet thick, though at Barton, Canada, it is 618 feet thick. Its dimensions in 
 Pennsylvania are much increased. In the latter State it is subdivided into three 
 Groups on lithological grounds; the lower, a compact greenish gray sandstone 
 about 400 feet thick, the next a soft argillaceous red and brown sandstone and 
 shale TOO feet thick, and the higher a white or light gray sandstone and shales, 
 450 thick; making a total thickness of 1,150 feet. Like other sandstones, it 
 usually contains but few fossils, but in some localities it is highly fossiliferous, 
 especially in the upper part. 
 
 The Clinton Group is only estimated, in Ohio and other Western localities, at 
 50 feet or less in thickness. In New York and Canada from 50 to 400 feet, and 
 on the Island of Anticosti at 610 feet; but in Pennsylvania it reaches the great 
 thickness of 1,620 feet. (Geo. of Penn., vol. i., p. 106.) 
 
 Prof. Hall says of this group : " In the Western portion of the State (N. Y.) 
 the limit between the Medina sandstone and Clinton Group is well defined, and 
 the materials very distinct; but, in the central part of the State, we find the same 
 conditions which operated during the deposition of the Medina sandstone to have 
 been continued into the Clinton Group. The latter commences by a shaly 
 deposit, which is soon succeeded by alternations of sandstone, in character pre- 
 cisely like the Medina sandstone. The general character of the marine vegeta- 
 tion of the two periods is similar; and a peculiar t3^pe of plants commences its 
 existence in the Medina sandstone, and terminates in the Clinton Group. When 
 we examine the Clinton Group in the central part of the State, its analogies are 
 chiefly with the Medina sandstone; and it is there a powerful and important 
 formation, presenting, however, great variation in its successive beds and charac- 
 ters, in every respect truly protean. In its Western extension, the Clinton Group 
 assimilates in character to the Niagara Group, and in the Western district has 
 nearly lost the character which it presents in Oneida county. At the same time 
 that the Group assumes a more calcareous character in its Western extension, it 
 
10 STRATIGEAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 loses the fossils which were typical of it, and becomes charged with fossils pecu- 
 liar to calcareous strata. Thus, while we find its lower beds, from Wayne county 
 Westward to the Niagara river, characterized by .peculiar fossils, we find the 
 upper beds containing many species which pass upward into the Niagara Group. 
 Indeed, there is no line which can be designated between these two Groups, which 
 shall mark the limits of the organic products. It is true, nevertheless, that by 
 far the greater part of the fossils of the two Groups are distinct; and the small 
 number in the lower Group, of those which we regard as proper to the Niagara 
 Group, are for the most part inconspicuous, and not so well developed as they are 
 in the Niagara." Again, he says: 
 
 " In tracing the Clinton Group Westerly, we find its affinities more with the 
 rocks below, or that the material and fossils recognized on the one side as the 
 Clinton formation are not strongly separated from the upper beds of the Hudson 
 River Group; and studied in these localities alone, they might be regarded as 
 constituting part of the same. On the other hand, the Niagara becomes defined 
 as a calcareous Group, and the line between it and the strata below is strongly 
 drawn. The base of this limestone would everywhere be recognized as the base 
 of the Upper Silurian Rocks, while the strata below are marked by fossils which 
 belong to the Lower Silurian fauna." 
 
 The Niagara Group consists of shales and limestones, and may, for the pur- 
 poses of this introduction, include the lenticular mass of dolomitic limestones 
 found in Canada, and bearing the name Guelph Group. The Guelph Group takes 
 its name from the town of Guelph in Canada, where it is about 160 feet in thick- 
 ness. At Lockport and at Niagara Falls, the Niagara Group consists of about 
 80 feet of shales, and 164 feet of limestones. The Group is found exposed in 
 Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and other Western States, rarely exceeding 400 feet in 
 thickness; but in Tennessee it reaches 1,700 feet, and is subdivided as follows: 
 1st, Clinch Mountain sandstone, consisting of shales and sandstones, 700 feet; 
 2d, White Oak Mountain* sandstone, 500 feet ; 3d, Dyestone Group of shales and 
 sandstones, which takes its name from an iron ore, which is sometimes used as a 
 dyestone, 300 feet; and 4th, Meniscus Limestone, which takes its name from a 
 lens or a meniscus-shaped fossil sponge, named by Roemer, Astraiosponyia 
 meniscus, 200 feet. 
 
 Prof. Hall says : " The rocks of this Group, where best developed in Western 
 New York, consist of a mass of shale, succeeded by one of limestone, the passage 
 from the former to the latter taking place by the gradual increase of calcareous 
 matter. The upper or terminating limestone of the Clinton Group is succeeded 
 by a soft argillo-calcareous shale, which maintains its character unchanged for a 
 thickness of 80 to 100 feet. Throughout the greater part of this it abounds in 
 fossils, nearly all of which are distinct from those in the beds of the Clinton 
 Group. In the Western part of New York, the lithological characters of the 
 Clinton and Niagara Groups are so similar, that they could well be united. The 
 fossils also of the two Groups, though generally distinct, are nevertheless generic- 
 ally similar, and several species pass from the lower to the higher Group. Still 
 farther West, the assimilation becomes more perfect, and there appears to be 
 no line of separation between the two Groups. At the same time the fossils 
 appear to be commingled."

 The Onondaga Salt Group is sometimes called the Onondaga limestone or 
 Gypsiferous series. Its outcrop in New York is traced, says Prof. Hall, from 
 Montgomery- county, where the formation is represented by a thin band, West- 
 ward into Wayne county, where it attains a thickness of 1,000 feet, and thinning 
 out towards Canada, it crosses the Niagara river, at 300 feet in thickness, whence 
 it is traced Northwestwardly to Lake Huron, and thence to Mackinac. It is also 
 exposed in Pennsylvania, where it was called the Surgent red marl, and in West- 
 ern and Southern localities. In its lower part, it is made up chiefly of marls and 
 thin shaly limestones, which include the gypsum and salt. Its upper portion 
 consists of magnesian limestones, often yielding hydraulic or water lime, and is 
 hence sometimes distinguished as the Water Lime Group, where it really forms 
 part of the Onondaga Group. 
 
 The Lower Helderberg Group has a wide geographical range, but is not sus- 
 ceptible of subdivision into man}- Groups, at any great distance from the Helder- 
 berg Mountains, where Vanuxem separated it into ; 1st, Water Lime Group or 
 Tentaculite limestone ; 2d, Pentamerus limestone ; 3d, Deltbyris shaly lime- 
 stone ; 4th, Encrinal limestone ; and 5th, Upper Pentamerus limestone. The 
 Water Lime Group was so called from its yielding hydraulic cement, and is about 
 200 feet thick in New York, and thins out in Canada in a Northwesterly direc- 
 tion. Pentamerus limestone took its name from the Pentamerus galeatus found 
 in it, in Cherry Valley, New York, where it is about 30 feet thick. The Delthy- 
 ris shaly limestone was so named from the abundance of Spirifera macropleura, 
 and S. pachoptera, formerly called Delthyris, found in it. It is about 70 feet 
 thick. The Encrinal limestone is about 25 feet thick, and was so named from 
 the quantity of broken encrinites it contains. It has also been called the Scu- 
 tella limestone, from a shield-like pelvis of a crinoid found, in it. The Upper 
 Pentamerus limestone is about 75 feet thick, and was so named from the abund- 
 ance of Pentamerus pseudogaleatus with which it is characterized. 
 
 The Lower Helderberg attains the greatest thickness of 2,000 feet, at Gaspe, 
 Canada. It is 1,720 feet in Pennsylvania, 400 to 500 in New York, and from 100 
 to 200 feet thick in the Western States. 
 
 The fossils of this Group are quite similar to those of the Niagara, and mark 
 a very gradual development from the former to the latter. The Water Lime 
 Group is especially characterized by large crustaceans of the genera Eurypterus 
 and Pterygotus, the highest forms of organized life, which, so far as we know, 
 had, up to this period, appeared upon the earth. 
 
 The rocks of the Upper Silurian formation, as shown by the preceding esti- 
 mates, are about 8,000 feet in thickness. They contain the fossil remains of 
 no vertebrate animal so far as yet known. They shoAvthe uninterrupted course of 
 oceanic life from one Group of rocks to the next, and the gradual appearance of 
 higher organisms, and yet they are without land plants, save perhaps a species 
 of Psilophyton, and vertebrate animals, even of the lowest oceanic tj-pes. The 
 student of biology and the laws of evolution may pause here and reflect upon the 
 fact, that from the geological horizon of the Eozoon canadense, we have passed 
 upwards through nearly eighteen miles in thickness of oceanic deposits, which 
 represent many millions of years as we understand the laws of deposition, and 
 while the changes in the forms of life have been numerous and wonderful, and

 the development into higher forms constant throughout the whole period, yet 
 that life had found its most complete development in a lowly organized articu- 
 late animal— the awkwardly constructed, loosely thrown together— flimsy 
 Eurypterus. 
 
 The Devonian formation was so named by Murchison from Devonshire, Eng- 
 land. It is subdivided in ascending order into: 1st, Oriskany Sandstone; 2d, 
 Upper Helderberg Group; 3d, Hamilton Group; 4th, Portage Group; 5th, Che- 
 mung Group; and 6th, the Catskill Group. 
 
 The Oriskany Sandstone takes its name trom Oriskany, in Oneida county, 
 New York. It has a wide geographical range, being found in Canada, New York, 
 Pennsylvania, Maryland, Illinois, and other States. Its maximum thickness is 
 placed at 300 feet. 
 
 Prof. Hall says: "The line of demarkation between subordinate Groups, and 
 the line of separation between systems, are equally strong, and that the whole 
 series may be regarded as a succession of minor Groups; that the strong lines of 
 division are almost always due to the absence of some formation, which if present, 
 would show a gradation to the next; and these subdivisions into systems have 
 been made dependent on the imperfection rather than the perfection of the se- 
 quence. Thus the strong line of demarkation between the Silurian and Devonian 
 which exists where the lower Helderberg Group is absent, is softened to a gentle 
 gradation through the intervention of these strata and the Oriskany sandstone. 
 Where these are present in all their members, the line of separation becomes less 
 sharply defined, and we have some evidence that there may exist other intermedi- 
 ate members, or a more full development of those now known between the two 
 formations." (Pal. of N. Y., vol. iii., p. 35.) 
 
 In Southern Illinois, the Oriskany sandstone of the Devonian system is un- 
 derlaid by a Group of silicious limestones, that in their upper beds contain well 
 marked Devonian fossils, and below those that seem to be characteristic, Upper 
 Silurian forms; thus forming beds of passage from the Upper Silurian to the 
 Devonian systems. This Group seems to hold about the same relation to these 
 two systems that the Anticosti Group of Canada holds between the Upper and 
 Lower Silurian of that country. This Group is called the " Clear creek lime- 
 stone," and is limited in its outcrop to the counties of Jackson, Union, and Alex- 
 ander, first making its appearance in the bluff's of Mississippi, at the lower end 
 of the ridge known as the "Devil's backbone," in Jackson county, and continuing 
 along the river bluffs to Clear creek, in Union county, where they are fully 
 developed, and where they probably attain their maximum thickness of from 250 
 to 350 feet. (Geo. of 111., vol. i., p. 125.) Subsequent investigations, and a 
 more complete collection of the fossils which belonged to the upper and lower 
 divisions of the mass, led to the conclusion that the upper division represented, 
 at least in part, the Oriskany period, and the lower, the Delthyris shaly beds of 
 the Lower Helderberg series. And in accordance with this view, without any 
 well marked line of separation on lithological grounds, but supported by an ex- 
 amination of the same beds in Perry county, Missouri, the upper 200 feet, at the 
 maximum thickness, is placed in the lower division of the Oriskany period, and 
 the lower 200 feet, at the maximum thickness, is placed in the Lower Helderberg 
 period. (Geo. of 111., vol. ii., p. 8; vol. iii., p. 24.) 
 
STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 13 
 
 The Upper Helderberg Group, in its fullest development, consists of four 
 members, the Caudagalli grit, the Schoharie grit, the Onondaga and Corniferous 
 limestones. The first, when characteristic, is a dark, gritty slate, which has a cleav- 
 age vertical to the line of deposition, and is generally destitute of fossils; but with 
 surfaces, covered with curved, fucoid-like markings, which have given it its 
 name. This rock constitutes beds of passage from the Oriskany sandstone, and 
 graduates above into the Schoharie grit, which is an arenaceous limestone, 
 weathering to a brownish color, and succeeded by the gray, subcrystalline, coral- 
 line formation, which is known in New York as the Onondaga limestone, while 
 the Corniferous limestone consists of the higher dark-colored chert beds of the 
 Group. (Hall's Pal., vol. iii., p. 43.) 
 
 The Caudagalli grit was named from a fucoid having some resemblance in 
 form to the tail of a chicken cock. It has a small geographical range, and its 
 maximum thickness in New York is placed at 70 feet. 
 
 The Schoharie grit, named from Schoharie, New York, has a small geo- 
 graphical range and no considerable thickness. In Pennsylvania and New 
 Jersey, where the Caudagalli and Schoharie grits have been called the Post Meri- 
 dian grits, they have a thickness of 300 feet. This Group in New York consists 
 of a fine grained calcareous sandstone, somewhat resembling the Oriskany, but 
 bearing quite different fossils. 
 
 No vertebrate animal has yet made its appearance. 
 
 The Onondaga limestone is only from 20 to 50 feet thick in New York, and, 
 though traced over a great extent of country, rarely exceeds that thickness. In 
 Missouri it is said to vary from 10 inches to 75 feet in thickness, but there are 
 few if any Western localities where this Group can be # separated from the Cor- 
 niferous. 
 
 The Corniferous limestone was named from the chert found in it, which 
 breaks with a corny fracture. It varies from 100 to 200 feet in thickness, in 
 Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania and New York. It is from 300 to 400 feet 
 thick in Michigan, and reaches its maximum of 850 feet at Tilsonbury, Canada. 
 At Louisville, Kentucky, this Group consists of a mass of fossil corals, in a bed 
 of hard limestone. It has the appearance of having been a coral reef, and has 
 been so designated, but the limestone is so firm that perfect specimens of the 
 corals are not easily procured. 
 
 This is the Group of rocks in which the first remains of vertebrate animals 
 are found. These remains consist generally of the teeth of fish, but other hard 
 parts are also found. Some strata are known which are literally a mass of fish 
 teeth cemented together in a compact limestone. Land plants become more com- 
 mon in this Group. 
 
 The maximum of these subdivisions of the Upper Helderberg Group is there- 
 fore 1,225 feet. Each subdivision in New York is characterized by distinct fos- 
 sils, but in Canada several of the most characteristic species of the Oriskany 
 sandstone ascend through each of the overlying Groups into the Corniferous. 
 
 From this time forward, the five sub-kingdoms in animal life are represented 
 in every Group of rocks capable of their preservation, viz. : Protista, Radiates, 
 Mollusks, Articulates, and Vertebrates. They all continue to change and de- 
 velop, but the great field of evolution is well nigh surrendered to the Vertebrates, 
 
14 STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 which have commenced an existence in the lowest forms of marine fish, soon to 
 appear in higher states of perfection, and to be followed by a number of Ba- 
 trachian or Reptilian forms before the close of palaeozoic time. 
 
 The Hamilton Group was named by Vanuxem, from Hamilton, Madison 
 county, New York. In its fullest development, it consists of the Marcellus 
 shale, Ludlowville shale, Encrinal limestone, Moscow shale, Tully limestone, and 
 Genessee slate. It is about 1,200 feet thick in Eastern New York, and 1,150 feet 
 in Eastern Pennsylvania. It thins out Westerly and Southerly, but maintains 
 a thickness of from 300 to 600 feet in Canada. 
 
 Prof. Hall says : " The Hamilton Group consists, in Eastern New York, at 
 base of the black Marcellus shale, including some bands of Goniatite limestone. 
 Next succeeds a hard, compact, calcareo-arenaceous shale, which, under atmos- 
 pheric influences, crumbles into angular fragments. This is followed by more 
 arenaceous bands, and by bands of soft slaty shale, with arenaceous shale or ar- 
 gillaceous sandstone, and with some thin bands of limestone, which are almost en- 
 tirely composed of organic remains. Toward the Western part of New York the 
 coarser materials gradually diminish, and we find an increasing proportion of 
 soft shales, with a more general diffusion of the calcareous matter, and the mass 
 is terminated by a limestone. Finally, from the Genessee river to the Western 
 limits of the State, the entire Group, above the Marcellus shale, which is persis- 
 tent, consists of dark, soft shales and bands of limestone. Thus the lithological 
 characters are at the East, an olive shale and sandstone; at the West, a grayish- 
 blue, calcareous shale, with bands of limestone. (Pal., vol. iii., p. 46.) 
 
 The Portage Group was named from Portage, New York. It is 1,400 feet 
 thick in the Eastern part jof the State, and 1,150 feet thick in Eastern Pennsylva- 
 nia. It thins out Westerly and Northerly. The Black Slate or Huron Shale of 
 Michigan and Ohio belongs to this Group, and is from 300 to 400 feet thick. It 
 is from 100 to 200 feet thick at Louisville, Kentucky, and New Albany, Indiana, 
 and 50 feet thick in Missouri. The Group ought not to be called the Huron Shale 
 either in Ohio or elsewhere, because that name was appropriated by the early 
 Canadian geologists, and applied to a Group of Metamorphic rocks. If one 
 were to speak of the slate in the Huronian Group, it would be called the Huron 
 Slate, and so would shale if found there, be properly designated as Huron Shale. 
 The words Huron and Huronian have the same signification, and are too near alike 
 to be used to designate widely separated Groups of rocks. The " Huron Shale " 
 is a synonym for the " Portage Group," with nothing to commend its use, because 
 it has neither geographical nor local significance. 
 
 The Chemung Group was named from Chemung, New York, and is about 
 2,000 feet thick in the Eastern part of that State, but at Huntington, Pennsylvania, 
 it is 3,200 feet in thickness. It thins out to the West, and is estimated at only 
 400 feet in Ohio, where it is called the Erie Shale, and 200 feet in Missouri. 
 While the Hamilton, Portage and Chemung Groups in New York are, combined, 
 only about 4,000 feet thick, and in Pennsylvania do not much exceed 6,000, at 
 Gaspe, Canada, they are 7,036 feet, though this estimate may include the Catskill 
 Group. 
 
 The passage from the Silurian formation to the Devonian at Gaspe, Canada, 
 where the rocks are exposed 9,000 feet in thickness, is not evidenced by any

 change in lithological character, and is hardly determinable from an examination 
 of the fossils. The lower 2,000 feet is classed with the Helderberg Group in the 
 Silurian, but it may include the Oriskany sandstone of the Devonian series. The 
 upper 7,036 feet are supposed to represent all the other Groups in the Devonian 
 formation of New York, but the divisions are not clearly defined as in New York, 
 nor readily separable from an examination of either the fossils or the rocks. 
 (Geo. of Canada, 1863. p. 396; do. 1866, p. 260; Hall's Pal, vol. iii., p. 45.) 
 
 A very interesting Group of rocks, because of the highly fossiliferous charac- 
 ter and abundance of Goniatites, is exposed at Rockford, near Seymour, Indiana, 
 which probably represents part of the Chemung Group; though Prof. Meek and 
 the Illinois geologists have regarded it as the representative of the Kinderhook 
 Group. 
 
 The shales and sandstones of the Catskill Group form in their greatest ex- 
 pansion at the Catskill Mountains, from which the Group takes its name, a mass 
 of at least 3,000 feet in thickness. The Group is composed of red and greenish 
 or olive shales and shaly sandstones, with some gray and mottled sandstones 
 and conglomerates. 
 
 In Pennsylvania this Group is divided into: 1st, Ponent Red Sandstone, 
 which is 5,000 feet thick in its Southeastern outcrops; 2d, Vespertine, Conglom- 
 erate and sandstone, 2,660 feet in thickness, near the Susquehanna, making a total 
 thickness of 7,660 feet. 
 
 The rocks of the Devonian age are therefore 15,235 feet, or nearly three miles 
 in thickness, and are connected together by their interlocking fossil contents, and 
 united with those of Silurian age, precisely as the Lower Silurian Groups are re- 
 lated to each other. 
 
 The Devonian rocks are followed by the Carboniferous, which are divided 
 into : 1st, Lower Carboniferous ; 2d, Carboniferous Conglomerate ; 3d, Coal 
 Measures ; and 4th, Permian. 
 
 The Lower Carboniferous Group, in Nova Scotia, consists of reddish and 
 gray sandstones and shales, conglomerates and thick beds of limestone, with ma- 
 rine shells and gypsum, and is 7,636 feet in thickness. On the island of Bona- 
 venture, it is about 2,000 feet in thickness, or with the Carboniferous conglomer- 
 ate 2,766, and contains the Eatonia peculiaris, which is found in the Oriskany 
 sandstone of New York. In Illinois, the Lower Carboniferous is subdivided into 
 Groups in ascending order as follows : 1st, Kinderhook Group, from 100 to 150 
 feet ; 2d, Burlington Group, from 25 to 200 feet ; 3d, Keokuk Group, from 100 
 to 150 feet ; 4th, St. Louis Group, from 50 to 200 feet ; and 5th, Chester Group, 
 from 500 to 800 feet. In Missouri, it is subdivided in ascending order, into: 1st, 
 Encrinital limestone ; 2d, Archimedes limestone ; 3d, St. Louis limestone ; 
 and 4th, Ferruginous sandstone ; the maximum thickness of which is only about 
 1,200 feet. The Burlington Group has been called the Encrinital limestone, and 
 in Missouri it is 500 feet thick. The Keokuk limestone is the Archimedes lime- 
 - stone of Owen. The Warsaw limestone is sometimes called the second Archi- 
 medes limestone. The St. Louis limestone was called the Concretionary lime- 
 stone by Owen. The Chester Group has been called Kaskaskia limestone, Up- 
 per Archimedes limestone, and Pentremital limestone. In Tennessee, the Lower 
 Carboniferous is subdivided into the Mountain limestone and Siliceous Group- 
 
16 STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 The total thickness is about 1,200 feet. In Ohio the Group is subdivided into 
 the Cleveland Shale, Bedford Shale, Berea Grit and Cuyahoga Shale, these to- 
 gether constitute what is also known as the Waverly Group, named from the 
 quarries at Waverly, Ohio. In Michigan, Prof. Winchell subdivided the Group 
 into the Marshal] Group, Napoleon Group, Michigan Salt Group, and Carbon- 
 it'cious limestone, the total thickness of which is 550 feet. In the Anthracite 
 Coal region of Pennsylvania this Group lias a maximum thickness of 3,000 feet, 
 and consists mainly of red shale; it thins out rapidly towards the Northwest, but 
 maintains a great thickness Southwardly through Virginia and into Alabama, 
 gradually changing its character, however, to a calcareous limestone. 
 
 The Lower Carboniferous rocks present us with a greater number of species 
 of Crinoids, and these in greater profusion than all the other subdivisions of the 
 Paheozoic rocks. A single locality at Burlington, Iowa, in the Burlington Group, 
 has furnished about 350 species. Another locality at Crawfordsville, Indiana, 
 has almost a world-wide reputation for the great beauty, perfection and abun- 
 dancy of its crinoids. It is in the Keokuk Group. 
 
 " The genus Nautilus among the Cephalopoda is clearly recognized and is 
 quite abundant, while the genus Orthoceras, whose perfection represented an or- 
 ganization akin to the embryonic form of the Nautilus has become correspond- 
 ingly rare. 
 
 The Carboniferous conglomerate is 1,400 feet in thickness in Pennsylvania, 
 and entirely thins out before reaching the Mississippi river. It is only from 100 
 to 200 feet thick in Ohio. 
 
 Prof. Hall says : " It was evidently formed from the fragments of older for- 
 mations, drifted, water-worn, rounded and deposited with the larger pieces at the 
 base, and the whole cemented together with smaller pebbles and sand. The 
 depth of the formation in Pennsylvania, and its thinning out to the North and 
 West, shows the current to have been from Southeast to Northwest, and probably 
 indicates the close proximity of the source in a Southeasterly direction. In 
 Michigan the thinning out is toward the South, or in a contrary direction. In 
 Illinois the formation thins out from the West toward the East. The character of 
 this formation, its manner of deposition, the currents which must have existed 
 to distribute it, all indicate that this continent was an archipelago at the era of 
 the Carboniferous conglomerate." 
 
 In some places the conglomerate is a quartzose grit used for millstones, and 
 it is hence called the Millstone grit. 
 
 The Coal Measures are 14,570 feet thick in Nova Scotia, 8,000 feet in Penn- 
 sylvania, 2,500 feet in Tennessee, 2,000 feet in Ohio, 1,200 feet in Illinois, 640 
 feet in Missouri, 2,000 feet in Kansas, and a greater thickness in Nebraska. 
 
 This Group is sometimes divided into Upper and Lower Coal Measures, a 
 separation that seems to be founded upon the fossil contents in many places. 
 
 Land Plants, which began their existence in the Devonian era, if we except 
 Psilophyton princeps, became abundant in the Coal Measures. They are distri- 
 buted through the rocks, the shales, and the coal. Marine Vegetation, the growth 
 of the Marsh, and the Flora of dry land, existed in immense quantities, and was 
 widely distributed, but the higher orders of plants and forest trees were yet un- 
 known on the face of the earth.

 Among the Cephalopoda, numereus genera and species had disappeared. 
 The Nautilus the highest form then developed, was common, and furnishes us with 
 several subgeneric types, thus manifesting its prosperity, and pointing to its con- 
 tinuance in succeeding strata; while the Orthoceras had become rare and diminu- 
 tive, preparatory to interring the last of the family in this Group of rocks. 
 
 Among the Gasteropoda there was a decided advancement from the marine 
 forms, to the land snails of the genus Pupa. 
 
 Among the Articulates the progress in animal life was still more clearly 
 manifested, not only in the appearance of the marine forms of the genera JSu- 
 proops, Acanthotelson, and Anthrapalcemon, but in the appearance of terrestrial 
 insects of the family Neuropteridm; Myriapods of the genera Eoscorpius, Ma- 
 zonia and Architarbus; while the Trilobites that swarmed in frail hulks in earlier 
 days gradually became extinct. 
 
 The wheel of evolution rolled yet more rapidly among the Vertebrata. The 
 fish became more diversified and more highly organized. Amphibian animals 
 made their appearance in several families, some of them were protected by scales, 
 others were not; some had long vertebral columns, others had short ones; some 
 had limbs well developed, and in form were lizard-like, while others were desti- 
 tute of limbs or possessed them weak and half developed. 
 
 The Permian Group was so named by Murchison from Perm, a government 
 in Russia. This Group is known only in the country West of the Mississippi, 
 and is so intimately connected with the Coal Measures as to be hardly separable. 
 Its maximum thickness does not exceed 500 feet. The maximum thickness, 
 therefore, of the Carboniferous Groups ma}' be placed at 24,100 feet. 
 
 The Carboniferous rocks, as found in the Uinta Mountain Region, have been 
 subdivided by Powell and others, into four Groups, viz.: Lodore Group, Red Wall 
 Group, Lower Aubrey Group and Upper Aubrey Group. 
 
 The maximum thickness of the Groups forming the Paleozoic rocks of 
 North America, as here shown, is as follows: 
 
 Laurentian 32,750 feet. 
 
 Huronian 20,000 " 
 
 Lower Silurian 48,745 " 
 
 Upper Silurian 8,000 " 
 
 Devonian 15,235 " 
 
 Carboniferous 24,100 " 
 
 Total 148,830 feet. 
 
 This is a little over 28 miles, all of which is known to be fossiliferous, except 
 the three miles at the base. It ma}' be, that the thickness of some of the Groups 
 is overestimated, and it may be, that two Groups, which are estimated, were de- 
 posited at the same time, and that only one of them should be counted; but on 
 the other hand, it may be, that some Groups are entirely omitted, and that others 
 have not been measured at the place of their greatest thickness. The probability 
 is, therefore, that the maximum thickness of the Groups, when more certainly as- 
 certained, as it will be by future explorations and measurements, will not fall much, 
 if at all, below the present estimate. 
 
 The limestones of the Palaeozoic rocks were formed in clear ocean waters, 
 from the remains of calcareous shells. Their formation must have been ex- 
 
18 STRATIGRAPHICAL GEOLOGY. 
 
 tremely slow, so slow, that a foot may represent a thousand years, or even more. 
 The shales, clays and marls may have been deposited with greater rapidity; but 
 when we consider, that the change from one kind of rock-forming material to an- 
 other indicates a break in the continuity of time, and that great lapse of time was 
 necessary for the growth of the marine and land vegetation, which formed the coal 
 found between beds of clay and shale, we are led to the conclusion, that the time 
 which elapsed between two separate beds of clay and shale, or marl, added to the 
 time necessary for the deposition of their materials, will, on the whole, make their 
 formation as slow as that of the limestones. The sandstones and conglomerates, 
 particularly those of the Coal Measures, seem to have been made up of trans- 
 ported materials, and were therefore deposited much faster than the limestones, 
 though but few of them appear to have been made with any rapidity. The even- 
 ness of the strata, over a great extent of country, indicates slowness in trans- 
 portation and deposit. The fact, that the materials must have been taken from 
 pre-existing rocks, by the water, before transportation, tends again to convince us 
 of the slowness of their formation. From these considerations, it would not be 
 extravagant to say, that paheozoic time represents more than one hundred millions 
 of years, and we would close our eyes against the testimony of the rocks, were we 
 to conclude that palaeozoic time could be estimated by years less than many 
 millions. 
 
 The vegetable kingdom began with the lowest of its kind, the algae or sea 
 weeds, and with the lowest forms of these. The development was as gradual as 
 the deposition of the strata. It was not until the Devonian age, that land plants 
 appeared of sufficient firmness for preservation, if we except Dawson's Psilophyton, 
 which probably grew in a marsh. These were of the lowest classes. The}- be- 
 came more diffuse and diversified with the lapse of time ; but the palaeozoic era 
 closed without the appearance of any of the higher orders or classes. 
 
 The animal kingdom likewise began with the lowest of its kind, the Eozoon 
 canadense. The learned Dr. Haeckel has established the fifth sub-kingdom in 
 animal life to include forms below the Radiata, and therefore very nearby related 
 to inorganic matter. This sub-kingdom he has called Protista. The Eozoon 
 canadense, under this classification, belongs to the order Polythalamia, sub-class 
 Badiolaria, class lihizopoda, sub-kingdom Protista. Ages passed, about which 
 we know very little, before the period of the St. John's Group, which ushered in 
 the lower Silurian. At this time we find the lowest forms of the Radiates, Mol- 
 lusks and Articulates. The Articulates are represented by the lowest forms of 
 theTrilobites, which, in their perfect state, represented the embryonic condition 
 of the existing Limulus. Millions of years pass by again, before the appear- 
 ance of Gasteropoda, and Cephalopoda, in the Upper Potsdam Group ; meantime 
 the system of life, which commenced with the lowest forms, as if by spontaneous 
 generation, by evolution, increases species and genera and reaches a higher and still 
 higher grade of development. Later still, in the Calciferous Group, the Lamelli- 
 branchiata commenced its existence; a class that has fought its way through all 
 succeeding time, and is even now in the height of its prosperity and advancement. 
 All classes of life, which existed in the ocean, up to the first appearance of the 
 Lamellibranchiata, continued to live, develop, increase their species and genera, 
 and improve, through millions of years, before the Vertebrates first made their ap-

 pearance in the Devonian seas. During all this time, the earth was barren and 
 lifeless. Mighty changes had taken place, mud had been deposited on the bed 
 of the ocean many miles in thickness, and life had grown from its mineral origin 
 in the ocean, until it had nearly the strength to maintain itself on land; but all 
 this had been accomplished as silently as the earth moves in her orbit. The 
 same gradual development continued throughout each sub-kingdom to the close 
 of the Carboniferous period. The evolution in animal forms was as slow as time, 
 and quite as monotonous, except in the constant progress to a higher and more 
 complicated existence. The Coal Measures furnish us with fish-like remains, 
 having the limbs of a frog or the breathing capacit}" of a tailed batrachian. 
 Several genera have been made from the fossil remains of this period, which 
 bridge the chasm, from the Ganoid fish to the batrachian and the lacertian. The 
 highest Palaeozoic type of animal life, yet known, Prof. Dawson has called 
 Hylonomus lyelli. The distinguished principal of McGill College says, that it pre- 
 sents characters partly allying it to the newts and other batrachians and partly 
 to the true lizards. The structure of the skull and vertebrae resembling a 
 batrachian, and the well developed ribs, broad pelvis, and cutaneous covering 
 assimilating it to the true lizards. 
 
 The following inferences are therefore to be drawn from the testimony af- 
 forded by the Palaeozoic rocks: 
 
 First. That the maximum thickness of the Groups of strata is from twen- 
 ty-five to thirty miles. 
 
 Second. That it required many millions of years for the formation of these 
 Groups. , . 
 
 Third. That both vegetable and animal life commenced an existence, in 
 the lowest forms, such as might have been produced by a concentration of chemi- 
 cal forces, or, by what has been called spontaneous generation. 
 
 Fourth. That, b} r processes of evolution, vegetable life developed from 
 marine forms to land plants. 
 
 Fifth. That animal life began in the sub-kingdom Protista; from this sub- 
 kingdom, by processes of evolution and the survival of the fittest, there arose 
 Radiates, Mollusks, Articulates and Vertebrates. Each of these sub-kingdoms 
 is now in the highest state of its development, though many families and some 
 orders in each sub-kingdom have had their day and become extinct, or have been 
 on the decline for untold ages.

 The genus Prototaxites was founded by Dawson upon fossil wood, supposed to resemble 
 the genus Taxites. The same author founded the genus Nematoxylon, upon what he supposed 
 to be nearly related fossil wood. Mr. Carruthers examined the same specimens and pro- 
 nounced them both Algae, and founded the new genus Nematophycm. Seeds, stems, roots 
 and other organs of uncertain affinity, have received generic and specific names. Some 
 fossils are classed by some authors with the Algae, as Cruziana, Scolithux, etc., while others 
 regard them as tracks of marine animals. Authors are not in accord, even on the arrange- 
 ment of the fronds and branches of ferns into families. For these reasons, I have not 
 undertaken to arrange the fossils of the vegetable kingdom, represented in the palaeozoic 
 rocks, into families.

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION. 
 
 The first edition of this work was published by the author in 1877. No 
 work of the kind had ever appeared, and no encouragement for the undertaking 
 had been received. The author had confidence in its value to science, and 
 published it himself. This condition of affairs is well expressed by the 
 distinguished Prof. Leo. Lesquereux, in a letter addressed to the author, while 
 the work was in press, on the 28th of March, 1877. He said: 
 
 " Your kind favor of the 25th, and the page of prospectus of your cata- 
 logue are received. You will please allow me to say freely, that when I re- 
 ceived your first letter advising me of the preparation or publication of a 
 catalogue of the American Palaeozoic Fossils, I did not think much of a work 
 of the kind, for the reason that I knew by experience what amount of time and 
 research would be necessary for the preparation of such a work as the one you 
 were about to publish, and could not suppose that in this country, where 
 science is so generally considered under a remunerative point of view, there 
 was a naturalist disposed to make the researches you have so well done for 
 mere love of science. But after the perusal of your first proof sheets, my 
 opinion was fully reversed, and I recognized immediately the great value of 
 your catalogue, the assistance which it will afford to all the palaeontologists, 
 and the accuracy with which you have pursued the immense amount of re- 
 searches necessitated for its preparation. For what concerns myself person- 
 ally, I thank you sincerely tor this production, and I am certain that every 
 palaeontologist will do the same." 
 
 After he had received a copy of the work, he again wrote as follows : 
 
 " I am sincerely glad to have the whole catalogue, though I have also good 
 use of the separate copy of the botanical part, which, bound with intermixed 
 blank leaves, serves me as a very commodious referendum, especially for new 
 American species of coal plants. Your excellent, most useful catalogue, in its 
 fullness receives a degres of interest from the Introductory remarks, those on 
 the construction of systematic names, and the Geological introduction. The 
 work is, indeed, one of devotion to science. It may not bring you pecuniary 
 reward, but you will have the satisfaction to know that it has helped many, 
 and been of great use, or will be hereafter, for the advancement of palaeonto- 
 logical science. For, indeed, it is a true dictionary, and should be in the hands 
 of every American geologist." 
 
 No testimonials of the value of the work .were ever solicited, but they 
 came, nevertheless, from all parts' of this country. and from abroad. Only a 
 few more will be selected. Prof. James. Hall, of New York, wrote: 
 
 " You have done a valuable work, for which the thanks of every describer 
 
PKEFACE. 
 
 of fossils are due; indeed, I do not recall the publication of a single book within 
 the past twenty years so necessary and useful to the geologist and palaeontolo- 
 gist." 
 
 Prof. John H. Klippart, of Columbus, Ohio : 
 
 "I like the work very much. It is just such a work as I have long since 
 very much needed. It will prove to the student of fossils what Webster's un- 
 abridged proves to the scholar — that it is simply indispensable. There is no 
 work to take its place, or that can be substituted for it." 
 Prof. G. C. Broadhead, of Missouri : 
 
 " I find it a useful book for a student of palaeontology, and it supplies a 
 necessity which experience has demanded." 
 
 Prof. Henry G. Hanks, of California : 
 
 "I am very much pleased with the work. It is just what I want." 
 
 Prof. R. H. Holbrook, of New Jersey : 
 
 "I consider it a valuable work worth many times the price." 
 
 Rev. J. Allen, President Alfred University, Pa. : 
 
 "We find your book a very valuable production — a great aid." 
 
 Prof. J. W. Dawson, of Montreal: 
 
 " I have found the book very useful, and hope you will follow it up with 
 supplements as new species are described." 
 
 Prof. G. Lindstrom, of Stockholm, Sweden : 
 
 "I bought your excellent catalogue of the North American Palaeozoic 
 Fossils, for use in the Museum, and I dare say that scarcely a day passes by 
 without my consulting it." 
 
 The notices this book has received in scientific periodicals have been no less 
 flattering, as will be observed in the Annals and Magazine of Natural 
 History, 1878, 5th ser., vol. i., p. 99, and the Geological Magazine of London, 
 for October 1877, p. 472. 
 
 Under these circumstances, I have been induced to prepare a supplement, 
 for the unbound copies remaining on hand, and to publish it in this form for 
 a second edition. The supplement contains the genera and species de- 
 scribed since 1877, those that were overlooked in the first edition, corrected 
 references of species to genera, corrections of the more serious mistakes and 
 typographical errors, and a new index of the genera. The Vegetable Kingdom 
 is arranged in orders and classes, the Class Echinodermata is re-subdivided, 
 some new orders and new families are briefly defined, and a few specific names 
 have been proposed by the author for those preoccupied, which constitute the 
 new features of the supplement. In addition to the corrections, the fossils 
 described in the 23d and 24th Reports of the Reg. of the Univ. of N. Y., on the 
 condition of the St. Cab. of Nat. Hist., should be accredited to Hall and 
 Whitfield, instead of to Hall alone, and the Cincinnati Group should, in all 
 Cases, be stricken out, and, in nearly every instance, the Hud. Riv. Gr. inserted, 
 a few species only being referable to the Trenton and Utica Slate.

SUPPLEMENT. 
 
 VEGETABLE KINGDOM. 
 
 In the first edition of this work, no attempt was made to arrange the fossils of the 
 vegetable kingdom, represented in the palaeozoic rocks, into classes, orders, or families, 
 for reasons then expressed; since that time, however, the work of Leo Lesquereux on 
 the coal flora of Pennsylvania has rendered possible a classification which will be of 
 some utility, though only approximately correct.

 ORDER AGELACRINOIDEA, n. ord. and n, fam. 
 
 This order is proposed to include, so far as known, only the family Agelacrinidae, and 
 each may, therefore, be defined as follows : 
 
 Body thin, circular and parasitic upon other objects. The lower side consists of a 
 thin, smooth, attaching membrane or plate. The upper side is more or less convex, and 
 composed of thin, squamiform or imbricating plates, usually much smaller at the per- 
 iphery than toward the center. Ambulacra constituting part of the convex surface 
 furrowed on the interior, and composed of a double series of transverse alternating plates, 
 sometimes having smaller, middle, intercalated ones. Two or more rows of ambulacral 
 pores connect the exterior with the interior of each ambulacrum. The so-called ovarian 
 or anal aperture is situated in one of the inter-ambulacral areas, and is usually surrounded 
 by cuneiform plates forming a depressed circular prominence. The genera belonging to 
 this order and family are Agelacrinus, Edrioaster and Hemicy6tites. 
 
 ORDER LICHENOCRINOIDEA, n. ord. and n. fam. 
 
 This division of the fossil Echinodermata, and the family Lichenocrinidae, are 
 established upon the genus Lichenocrinus. 
 
 The definition of the order and family will be the same, as both are founded on a 
 single genus. 
 
 The body attached during part or all of its life to foreign objects. It is circular, con- 
 vex upon the upper side, and more or less crateriform surrounding the central stalk-like 
 appendage. The lower side at some period of life possessed a thin attaching plate. The 
 upper side is covered with numerous polygonal plates, without any evidence of the 
 presence of ambulacra, arms, mouth, pectinated rhombs or pores connecting the exterior 
 with the internal cavity. The interior of the visceral. cavity contains numerous radiating 
 
278 ECHIXODEEMATA. 
 
 upright lamellae that support the polygonal plates of the upper side, and often leave their 
 impression, like the radiations of a star, upon the object to which it was attached. The 
 stalk rises from the central depressed area, and consists, at first, of interlocking plates, 
 hut, afterward, of circular ones, like those of a crinoid column, and finally tapers to a 
 point. It was flexible and perforated with a longitudinal channel, though the perforation 
 has not been satisfactorily ascertained at the upper terminating point. 
 
 ORDER MYELODA.CTYLOIDEA, n. ord. 
 This division of the fossil Echinodermata is established as follows : 
 Body free, discoidal, and possessed of an internal radiating system of pores, which 
 increase, by division, from the center to a tubular channel in the circular margin or sur- 
 rounding coil. There are two families referred to this order, the Myelodactylidae and 
 the Oyclocystoididae. In the former, the radiating and circular systems become com- 
 plicated, by the connection, between succeeding coils and through the flattened connect- 
 ing finger-like processes ; in the latter, the arrangement is more simple, as the interior 
 radiations connect with a single marginal circular system. The external form and in- 
 ternal structure are so essentially distinct from other well defined orders, that the tech- 
 nical names, used in description, have no ascertained application. That is, we can not 
 intelligently apply the words calyx, ambulacra,- arm, etc., to any part of these peculiar 
 organisms. This order has been suggested with hesitation, because there still exists a 
 possibility that My elodaetylus belongs, in some manner, to the vault of a crinoid, but 
 the author thinks there is not much probability of such connection. 
 
 FAMILY MYELODACTYLIDGE, n. /am. 
 This family is founded upon the single genus Myelodactylus, and defined as follows : 
 Body free, discoidal, and resembling a coil rolled in the same plane, and covered 
 upon either side by finger-like processes from each succeeding turn overlapping the 
 next inner one. The whorls are composed of a series of plates, having a tubular channel 
 within, and perforated and finger-like processes upon the exterior, directed toward the 
 center, and flattened down upon the next inner whorl to which they are attached, and 
 form a porous connection from the tubular channel of one Avhorl to the next inner one. 
 The cast of the pores of the inner whorl resemble the radiating spokes of a wheel : they 
 are multiplied in connecting the tubular channels of each succeeding whorl, thus making 
 the internal radiating system doubly complicated. The central aperture, if one exists, 
 has not been discovered, and the structure of the terminal end of the anonnlous coil is 
 wholly unknown. The internal radiating system of pores may be compared with that 
 of the family Cyclocystoididfe, and here the analogy in structure, with other families in 
 the class Echinodermata, so far as known, ceases. The terminal end of the coil being 
 unknown hus led to the suggestion of the possibility of its having been connected with 
 the vault of a crinoid, but as no genus is known having any such appendage, and some 
 classification seeming desirable, this family has been proposed. ' 
 
 FAMILY CYCLOCYSTOIDID^E, n. fam. 
 ~ This family is founded upon the single genus Cyclocystoides, and defined as follows : 
 Body free, consisting of a circular disk, and having a margin composed of a series of 
 perforated plates. Within this marginal series the disk is covered with an integument of 
 small plates, except, possibly, a small central aperture. The rim or marginal series 
 contains a tubular channel, making the complete circle, which is connected with the in- 
 terior, by numerous pores, that radiate from the center, and repeatedly bifurcate be- 
 fore reaching it. The inner side of the rim is grooved, for the reception of the internal 
 part of the disk, and the outer side depressed and scarred, either by mammillary eleva- 
 tions or concave depressions, as if for the attachment of ossicular or other processes. 
 The tubular channel is connected with the exterior by minute circular pores which were 
 probably analagous, in their purpose, to the calycine pores in the Cystidese.

 The author has been informed that Mr. J. M. Clarke has described a new genus 
 and three new species of Phillocaridae, which will probably appear in the Am. Jour. 
 Sci. & Arts, for February, 1833, viz: Dipterocaris pescervae, D. pennidsedali, and 
 D. procne— all from the Chemung. 
 
 Prof. E. YV. Claypole says there is little or no classic ground for printing ce in the 
 beginning of the second part of a compound word, such as ruycestriatus. It should be 
 rwjistriatus. An exception occurs when the first part of the word is merely a prefix, 
 as in sitbcequalis. That nebraskensis should be written instead of nebrascensis , as there 
 is no ground for using the c instead of k. And that the generic name Chariocephalus 
 should be written Charitocephalus. 
 
 Mr. Henry Nettleroth has described, under the title of ,: Fossil Mollusca of 
 Kentucky," for vol. 1 of that State, which is now in press, Aviculopecten cancellatus, 
 A. concentricus, Paracyclas octerlonyi, Tellinomya striata, Modiomorpha charlestown- 
 ensis, Millerella (n. gen.) jonesi, Spirifera euruteines, var. erecta, S. euruteines, var. 
 elongata, S. byrnesi, S. hobbsi, S. davisi, S. mcconathyi, Rhynchonella gainesi, Eu- 
 omplialus protteri, Cyclonema clarki, Cyrtoceras hydraulicum, Murchisonia tubercu- 
 ata, Platyceras nodulosum, P. elongatum, P. compressnm, and Orthis goodwini, from 
 the Devonian formation; and Spirifera knotti, Pentamerella schwartzi, Rhynchonella 
 compressa, Pentamerus foggi, P. trigonalis, P. louisvillensis, and Stricklandia louis- 
 villensis, from the Niagara Group; and Cypricardites halli, from the Hudson River 
 Group.
