FOREWORD p D.¢ 
before by Eigenmann (Ann. Carnegie Mus., vol. 6, No. 1, p. 18, 1909) 
for a new genus of fish. I here propose Carnegietta, genotype C. 
gracilis (Wilson), for the preoccupied genus, in order to carry out 
Dr. Wilson’s manifest desire so to honor the late Andrew Carnegie, 
generous patron of science. 
All Dr. Wilson’s records and his extensive library of copepod litera- 
ture were bequeathed to the Division of Marine Invertebrates, United 
States National Museum, Washington, D. C. It is hoped that the 
recipients of this posthumous work of Dr. Wilson’s will continue to 
contribute all publications of their own dealing with copepods or 
marine biology to the Wilson library at the National Museum, in order 
that it may be made as complete as possible.
