VINE : CLASSIFICATION OF THE PALAEOZOIC POLYZOA.

and A. H. Foord/'' that I feel it would be mere folly ou my part to 
suggest polyzoal affinities for species tliat have been placed in the 
genera indicated, by these competent authorities. 
In his review of the " Br}^ozoraires,"t Dr. M. Gustavo Dolfus 
suggests that the general classification of the Bryozoa is indispensable 
to a good description of species, and after reviewing the work that 
has been accomplished by Hincks, Smitt, Busk, Waters, Pergens 
and others, he gives a resume of what has been done by M. 
Koschinsky and M. Waagen, the first on the ancient tertiaries, 
(Eocene), of Bavaria, the other on the Fenestellidie of the Car- 
boniferous rocks of India.. I have not seen M. Waagen's work, but 
Dr. Dolfus furnishes, in the review referred to, some account of the 
grouping of Palaeozoic Polyzoa by this author. The arrangement is 
difterent from that ordinarily received, but I give it on the authority 
of M. Dolfus (op. cit. p. 186).
