Fossil Invertebrates
The plates in this book capture incredibly detailed impressions and casts of ancient life, contrasting them with forms, such as the horseshoe crab and the chambered nautilus, that persist today virtually unchanged. Paul D. Taylor and David N. Lewis, both of the Natural History Museum, London, have written a comprehensive and accessible resource.

Understanding Fossils
The first introductory palaeontology text which demonstrates the importance of selected fossil groups in geological and biological studies, particularly in understanding evolutionary patterns, palaeoenvironmental analysis, and stratigraphy. Part one explores several key concepts, such as the processes of fossil preservation, the determination of evolutionary patterns, and use of fossils and statigraphical tools. Part two introduces the main fossil groups of value in these applied fields. Part three concentrates on the examination of important case histories which demonstrate the use of fossils in diverse practical examples. Evolutionary studies, palaeoenvironmental analysis, and stratigraphical applications are documented using up-to-date examples supported by overviews of the principles.
Bibliography of Publications Relating to the Collection of Fossil Invertebrates in the United States National Museum
In preparing the following catalogues chronologic order has been followed under the different authors, and in Part 4 the fifteen different authors arranged, first, alphabetically and then chronologically under each author. Correctness of bibliographic form and detail has not been so much sought after as completeness and accuracy in the numerous references. A general alphabetic index of species will be found at the end of the volume. The compiler will be glad to have his attention called to any errors or omissions. Dr. White's bibliography is prepared from data furnished by himself.
Catalogue of Invertebrate Fossil Types at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia
This catalogue includes only what the staff at the Acad. of Natural Sciences regard as ¿primary types.¿ These include HOLOTYPE, PARATYPE, COTYPE, SYNTYPE, LECTOTYPE & NEOTYPE. The designation on the label has been followed as indicating the kind of type. Early specimens are merely labeled ¿type.¿ Many are called ¿type lot.¿ Later specimens or earlier specimens studied by later workers are designated ¿holotype.¿ The terms ¿cotype¿ & ¿syntype¿ are used synonymously according to the use of the original worker advising on the chapter. There may be some variation in the biblio. ref. because of the usage of the specialist working on the chapter in question. However, the ref. are clear enough so that the researcher can locate the original description.
Fossil Invertebrates
Fossil Invertebrates is a textbook for undergraduates and for research scientists interested in invertebrate palaeontology. Generously illustrated, it provides a balanced treatment of the current state of knowledge by research specialists. The large, diffuse and specialized literature makes understanding invertebrate palaeontology a formidable task. The combined research experience of twenty-six authors gives this book a unique richness in information, interpretation, and evaluation of controversies and unanswered questions that are necessary to present the current state of invertebrate palaeontology and evolution
