THE LITERATURE OF THE TRIASSIC VERTEBRATES OF 



NORTH AMERICA. 



Our knowledge of the Triassic vertebrate life of North America is so limited 

 that it is not yet time to attempt a summary statement of the material at hand, 

 but it will not be amiss, as a step in progress, to list the main articles which have 

 from time to time partially reviewed the work done up to the time of their appear* 

 ance. The bibliographies in these articles will lead to the original publications.
