Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bulletin of the Buffalo Society of Natural Science, Vol. 11: The Habitat of the Eurypterida Aside from the work done on the literature, a large amount of material has been studied, including hundreds Of typical specimens Of eurypterids, thin sections of some Of the waterlimcs, the collections Of the rock types from the eurypterid-bearing horizons Of Europe col lected by Professor A. W. Grabau and now in the Palaeontological Museum Of Columbia University; further, a number of the best sec tions in the field have been visited. When the present paper was nearly finished there appeared Clarke and Ruedemann's exhaustive Monograph on the Eurypterida of New York which, with Wood ward's Monograph of the British Fossil Crustacea, gives us the most illuminating and comprehensive work on the Eurypterida. Many important points in the ontogeny and phylogeny of the eurypterids are here set forth for the first time, and all of the North American species are described in great detail and figured in a volume Of plates that surpass all former illustrations.
