Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Contribution to the Geology and Paleontology of Northwestern Louisiana In the lists Of the Species, references to the publications where they were first described are omitted, because in Prof. G. D. Harris's report on the Tertiary geology of southern Arkansas' numerous references are given. Professor Harris has written a Monograph of the Terti ary Mollusca of Texas (not yet published), and Mr. O. W. Johnson, curator of the museum of the Wagner Free Institute of Science, of Philadelphia, is engaged in making a catalogue, with bibliographic references, of the Species in the Isaac Lea memorial collection of Eocene fossils. These publications will contain references to practically all of the species listed in the present paper. Dr. William H. Dall has prepared a paper, which will probably appear in the Eighteenth Annual Report of the Survey, dealing with the nomenclature and correlation of the Tertiary beds of the United States. In this contribution Dr. Dall has shown that the Vicksburg and the Grand Gulf and the beds hitherto denominated Lower Miocene should be considered Oligocene, the first belonging to the Lower Oligocene and the second to the Upper Oligocene. Through the courtesy of Dr. Dal], I have utilized that classification in the present paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Correlation of Geological Faunas: A Contribution to Devonian Paleontology In the year 1881 I began a series of investigations for the purpose of discovering the laws which determine the association of fossils in fauna] aggregates and their modifications in relation to geographical distribution and to vertical succession, in order to apply those laws as guides to the correlation and classification of geological formations. While these investigations have been in progress many other workers have joined in the search. Many statistics have been gathered, and observations have been extended over a wide field. A few important results have been attained, and the nature of the problem is now more clearly understood than at the outset. It seems, therefore, that this is a fitting time to review the progress already made, and to point out the more prominent results achieved and the paths along which future investigations may be guided with most promise of success.

This book was released on 2016-09-18 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletins of American Paleontology, Vol. 20: 1933 1934 To this period also belongs the work of Dr. Antonio Raimondi covering a space of nearly 50 years of systematic research on the geography and topography of Peru. Raimondi made impor tant observations on geology, incorporating most of this infor mation on his maps and he apparently used the fossils he collect ed as a guide in determining the age and distribution of the sedi mentary formations. He sent his fossils to Wm. Gabb5 for de scription, accompanying them with a letter in which he gave a concise and interesting outline of the geographic distribution of the sedimentary formations in Peru. According to his idea, Cretaceous together with Jurassic and Triassic rocks are princi pally distributed in the Western Cordillera while the Eastern Cordillera is of greater age and composed mainly of schists and older rocks. The collection obtained 'by Raimondi was described and figured in 1877 by Wm. Gab-136. Gabb seldom ventured an opinion on the age of the scattered collections and in most cases he simply stated the age of the beds according to the opinion of Raimondi.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from North American Geology and Palaeontology: For the Use of Amateurs, Students, and Scientists A general knowledge of Geology is probably of greater importance to the people of the United States than a like amount of information in any other department of natural science; but every' one will admit the state of learning in this branch is not of a very high grade. There is a common complaint among well-informed people who have given Geology no special study that the language used is technical, the names long, difficult to understand, and not unfrequently bear upon their face the evidence of affectation, as if, those coining, the words had attempted to make them as obscure as possible. It is a fact, however, that technical names are absolutely essential to a correct understanding of every branch of Natural History; and when the system of nomenclature is once learned the names are readily understood, and much more easily remembered, than the arbitrary names of individual things possibly can be. In this work an effort has been made to popularize the rules of nomenclature, and to define the technical words in the text or in the Glossary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology, Vol. 2: Contributions to the Palaeontology and Petrology of South Victoria Land The publication of the second volume of the Geology of the British Antarctic Expedition of 1907 - 1909 has been considerably delayed through several causes, chief among which are the departure of Sir Ernest Shackleton on his present Antarctic Expedition and above all the Great War. The latter has been such an obsession and has so wholly claimed the active services of both of us that it has been found to be quite impossible under the circumstances to summarize and modify many of the statements in Vol. I. We must therefore be content with touching on just a few salient points. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
