RECOED OF NOETH AMEEICAN INVEETEBEATE PALEON- 

 TOLOGY. 



By John Belknap Marcou. 



INTRODUCTORY NOTE. 



The same general plan has been followed as last year, although the 

 scoi)e of the work has beeu somewhat enlarged so as to include also re- 

 views and bibliographic notices of palseoutologic works ; mere mentions 

 of works by title hav^e not been referred to. I have experienced some 

 difficulty in getting hold of all the recent publications in time for inser- 

 tion in this record, and there are doubtless some omissions. I shall be 

 much obliged if those who notice them will call my attention to them 

 so that they may be inserted next year. I wish to thank all those who 

 have kindly aided me in collecting this material, and especially Mr. H. 

 M. Ami, of the Canadian Survey, and Mr. C E. Beecher, of the New 

 York Stat'e Museum at Albany.
