 formation. (Paleontolooy of Ohio, II, 1875, pp. 257-268, pi. xxv.) 

 This article contains tiie descriptions which ajjpeared earlier in the year in the two 

 papers in the Annals and Magazine of Natural History.

(Twenty -eighth Ann. Rep. New York State Museum Nat. Hist., 



1876 (Documentary^ edition), 32 plates, with explanation sheets.) 



The plates only of this article made their appearance in the Documentary edition 



of the Twenty-eiffhth ]\hiseuni Report. The complete edition (Museum edition) did 



not appear until 1879. The article is devoted to descriptions of a large number of 



species obtained from the now famous locality on Conns Creek near Waldron, Indiana. 



Twenty species of bryozoa are described (Museum edition) and figured. They are 



referred to the genera Chaetetes, Trematopora, Callopora, Lichenalia, Sagenella, 



Ceramopora, Paleschara, Stictopora, Fenestella, Thamniscus. 



Hall, James. Paleontology of New York. Illustrations of Devonian 

 fossils. 

 This work consisted only of plates designed for the Paleontology of New' York. It 

 is questionable whether this can be considered a publication, as but a limited number 

 of copies were sent out. Chaetetes furcatus, tenuis, humilis, tabulatus, and fruticosus 

 are the new species of bryozoa incompletely figured in this work (pis. xxxvii, 

 xxxviii).

This paper marks the opening of a new epoch in the study of Paleozoic bryozoa. 



For the first time, so far as we are aware, the appearances presented by thin sections 



viewed under the microscope form the subject of study and illustration. The species 



whose internal structure is described, and in most cases figured, are Chaetetes rhom- 



bicus, sigillarioides, nodulosus, rugosus, ramosus, petropolitanus, discoideus, New- 



berryi, Jamesi, gracilis, Fletcheri, tuberculatus, clathratulus, frondosus, Constellaria 



antheloidea, Dekayia attrita.
