among Hall's paleontological monographs (as Macro don hamiltonice) 

 and an occasional species has been described by other writers (as Paleo- 

 neilo bedfordensis by Meek). Herrick 9 has published a plate of figures 

 drawn from specimens obtained at Central College in the central part of 

 the State, and Foerste 10 has described and figured a very limited devel- 

 opment of the fauna as represented in eastern Kentucky. It may be 

 said, however, that the Bedford fauna is very imperfectly known. 



In my work on the "Bradfordian," the fauna of the Bedford shale was 

 collected and in part described. As represented in my collections, the 

 Bedford fauna in the typical localities of Cuyahoga County, Ohio, com- 

 prises about 50 species, which may be listed as follows :

In addition, there is a doubtful species of Rhombopora, several species

 suggesting the genera Primitia, Cytherella, Beyrichia (2 species) and 

 Paraparchites. 



The identifications and comparisons given above are subject to re- 

 vision, but, in spite of such possible changes, the list will serve to show
