270 Geology. 



specimens are regarded as the originals of Solander's figures, and they are 

 included in Mr. R. B. Newton's " Systematic List of F. E. Edwards' 

 Collection," published by the Trustees in 1891. The original labels, if 

 there were any, have long been lost, and those now preserved on the 

 back of the tablets are in the handwriting of S. P. Woodward. The 

 collection has occasionally been referred to as " The Solander Fossils " ; 

 next to the Sloane Collection, it is the oldest in the Geological 

 Department. 



Braun (F.) 



German Triassic and Jurassic fossils, purchased 1837, 1839. 



Braun (F.) 



Devonian star-fishes from Bundenbach, purchased 1883. 



Bravard (AUGUSTE) 



Like Pomel (q.v.~) a native of Auvergne, Bravard made a collection 

 of Tertiary Mammalia and other Vertebrata from Vaucluse, Allier, and 

 Puy-de-D6me, with some Pleistocene bones (chiefly Ursus) from the 

 caverns of Lozere. Deported, for political reasons, to Cayenne, he 

 contrived in 1852-53 to make another valuable collection chiefly of 

 Mammalia from the Pampa Formation of the Argentine Republic. These 

 two collections were carefully catalogued by him, and each specimen was 

 numbered in accordance with the catalogue, which was intended to be 

 the basis of Memoirs never published. The French collection was 

 purchased by the Museum from Bravard in 1852, the South American 

 collection in 1854. 



Bree (C. R.) 



Presented rostrum of Ziphius planirostris from Southwold, 1878. 



Brickenden (Major RICHARD THOMAS WILLIAM LAMBART). 



[1809-1900] 



Major Brickenden published a few notes on the geology of Moray, 

 Scotland (Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. 1851, 55), and made a fine collection 

 of about 100 fish-remains from the Upper Old Red Sandstone of Scaat 

 Craig, near Elgin. This collection was briefly referred to in the last of 

 the aforesaid notes, and was sold by him to the Museum in 1896. In 

 the early part of his career, Brickenden also collected fossils in Sussex, 

 and found at Cuckfield the first known mandibular ramus of Iguanodon, 

 which he developed and presented to Mantell (see Phil. Trans., 1848, and 

 " Petrifactions and their Teachings," p. 241).
