152 UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO STUDIES 



BIBLIOGRAPHY 



The subjoined list includes all publications which have come to the attention 

 of the writer from an extended search of the Hterature of the subject, wholly or in 

 part deahng with the geology and paleontology of the Florissant Basin. The United 

 States Geographical and Geological Survey of the Territories is herein designated 

 the Hayden Survey, by which name it is commonly known, in order to avoid con- 

 fusion with the present United States Geological Survey. The Final Reports of 

 the Hayden Survey are designated Monographs, in accordance with common usage. 

 Some confusion has heretofore resulted from references to Castello's Ranch, which 

 is the same as Florissant.
