Excerpt from Bibliography of North American Invertebrate Paleontology: Being a Report Upon the Publications That Have Hitherto Been Made Upon the Invertebrate Paleontology of North America, Including the West Indies and Greenland The scope of each separate entry has been a matter of much consideration. It is impracticable to make an extended abstract of each publication in a report like this; and if it were not, such abstracts could not obviate the necessity of the student to con sult the full original text. Therefore, only a brief indication of the character of the contents is given in each case, except that a list of the genera therein diagnosed, either originally or other wise, is included in the entry, no distinction being made in the entry between genera and subgenera. A list of the species is also given in the case of obscure publications; but they are omitted from those that one naturally expects to find in all good libraries. A very large proportion of the publications entered consists wholly of descriptions, no abstract of which is practicable, and it has been a custom among American writers to make the titles of their publications so full as to amount to a brief abstract of their work.
