Description:Excerpt from Transactions of the Royal Canadian Institute, Vol. 11 Nearly all the Silurian fossils and many of the Ordovician species are represented by casts only: this has made the identification of the forms di icult, and in many cases, doubtful. In fact, had the material been obtained from an accessible region, much of it would have been thrown away as indeterminable; but the remoteness of the area and the desire to furnish a full account of the collection has induced me to carry my determinations beyond the point justified under normal conditions. Mistakes have doubtless occurred, and science has possibly been burdened with more synonyms, but I have refrained from new Specific names in many cases where I have little doubt a new species is represented, and have preferred to leave the form indeterminate until better specimens have been found. A complete disregard of this doubtful material would not have done justice to Mr. Tyrrell's work. It is to be understood, therefore, that this paper is an account of the collection and not a treatise on the fauna of the region. The collection contains I 32 distinct forms to which possibly a dozen more might be added: of these, 48 are ascribed to known species, and 31 are new to science. The remaining 53 species are described, and in some cases figured, but their preservation does not justify specific names, although many of them are probably new. An analysis of the collection is given on the following page. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
