RECORD OF LOCALITY NUMBERS. 



Record of numbers on orange-colored tickets, marking the speci- 

 mens collected for the illustration of the Palaeontology of the State 

 of New York; beginning under the first appropriation made by the 

 State for the collection of fossils for that object in 1856. 



The name of the collector, date and locality are usually given, but 

 in a few instances the date was not recorded at the time of the 

 entry. 



These locality numbers have been attached to all the specimens 

 which have been sent from the State Museum, to the schools, academies 

 and colleges of the State, and in exchanges with other institutions.
