A Brief Contribution to the Geology and Paleontology of Northwestern Louisiana (Classic Reprint)

Pages : 78
Book Description
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.

The Correlation of Geological Faunas

Book Description
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.

Book Description
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.
