V.—Notes on Dr. G. F. Matthew's Cambrian Ostracoda from North-Eastern America

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

For many years Dr. G. F. Matthew, of St. John, New Brunswick, has given much attention to the geology and fossils of the districts lying on or near the north-eastern seaboard of North America, and has closely studied their minute fossils resembling (if not identical with) varieties of small bivalved Entomostraca; and he has published his results from time to time in the scientific periodicals of Canada and the United States.

, a scale, for their root.

page 403 note 4 Another species of Aparchites (A. conchiformis) is referred to at p. 454 of memoir No. 10 as belonging to the Protolenus-zone.

page 403 note 5 Bradoria is derived from the Lake ‘Bras d'or’ (!), in Cape Breton.

page 403 note 6 Scrutatrix is corrected from scrutator. So also perspectrix, spectatrix, and observatrix are corrections.

page 403 note 7 Bradorona is regarded as the augmentative of Bradoria.

page 403 note 8 Escasona seems to have been derived from Escasonie in Nova Scotia (see memoir No. 4, pp. 444 and 445), or Cape Breton (ibid., pp. 454 and 456). We may note that the genera Kirkbya and Kloedenia are referred to and misspelt here and there in the text.
