Overview

Excerpt from The Geologist: A Popular Illustrated Monthly Magazine of Geology There is one labour - the first part of the first instalment of which will appear, I believe, on the let of July - my projected Illustrated Catalogue of British Fossils, ' for which I hope to obtain very exten sive support. The printing of the first portion, complete in itself, 'an Illustrated Catalogue of British Fossil Sponges, ' has already been commenced, and in it the original figui'es, descriptions, and biblio graphy of all the described British fossil species will be given, with original notices of those new kinds Which have already come to my knowledge, or may hereafter do so before the completion of the Volume. As this work will be exceedingly full, it will entail a very heavy outlay on the publisher, not to be compensated, unless those geologists, who are not sponge-collectors, come freely to its sup port, in the faith that the success of this gigantic undertaking can only be accomplished by mutual help, if ultimately every depart ment of British Palaeontology is to receive similar illustration.
