II. The Invertebrate Fauna of Western Appalachia. 
The poverty of the fauna of the western shore of the Ap- 
palachian gulf as represented by its fossils (the Corniferous 
limestone excepted) is in strong contrast with the richness of 
that of the eastern margin as exemplified in middle Pennsyl- 
vania and Xew York. 
Excluding the Corniferous limestone, lists of whose abund- 
ant fossils have been published in the reports on the geology of 
Ohio, the catalogue of fossil Invertebrata from the strata of 
the region is excessively poor and looks yet poorer by contrast 
with the rich fauna of some of the homotaxial beds in the east. 
The scanty tables given here include all, or very nearly all, 
that have been reported to date. A few species may have been 
accidentally omitted, as the literature of the subject is widely 
scattered and some articles may have been overlooked. Most 
of these few species are represented by few specimens and these
