GRAPTOLITES OF NEW YORK, PART 2 7 



rograptus geinitzianu s). Still, there was enough left in the manu- 

 script to make it a welcome help to the writer in man)- ways. Its extensive 

 bibliography of'the graptolites, which is practically complete to 1896, might 

 be published as a separate bulletin, as also eventually the Dendroidea. 

 This done, full justice, I believe, would have been rendered to Dr Gurley's 

 assiduous labors on the graptolites. 



For the loan of collections and for valuable information I am sincerely 

 thankful to Director Charles D. Walcott, Dr T. W. Stanton, Dr E. O. 

 Ulrich, Mr Ray S. Bassler of Washington, to Prof. T. \Y. Sardeson of 

 Minneapolis, Prof. Charles Schuchert of New Haven, Mr John Schuler of 

 Rochester, Mr Edwin Kirk and Prof. R. P. Whitfield of New York.
