C., June 8, 1904- SIR: I have the honor to transmit herewith the manuscript of a report on " The lead, zinc, and fluorspar deposits of western Kentucky," by E. O. Ulrich and W. S. Tangier Smith, and to recommend its publication as a professional paper. Field work was carried on during the summer of 1902 under cooperative agreement with the State Survey of Kentucky, and a brief summary of the results was published in Bulletin No. 213, ''Contributions to Economic Geology for 1902." Prior to the investigation in 1902, however, Mr. Ulrich spent the greater part of two years (1889 and 1890) in the same territory, while attached to the Geological Survey of Kentucky. The field was again visited by Mr. Ulrich in 1903, and the results of all these studies are brought together in this paper. The district is one of peculiar interest,, having a complicated fault structure and unique lithologic and mineralogic associations. While the report contains much matter of purely scientific interest, it has been prepared with especial reference to the needs of the mining industry, and in such form that its conclusions should be of great practical benefit in developing the industry in this district.

MY WIFE COMRADE AND COLLABORATOR THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED PREFACE This little volume has grown out of a need experienced by the author during fifteen years of teaching paleontology. He has found that students come to the subject either with very little previous training in biology, or at best with a training which has not been along the lines that would definitely aid them in understanding fossils. Too often fossils are looked upon merely as bits of stone, differing only in form from the rocks in which they are embedded.

    305 Paleontology and the Recapitulation Theory. By E. R. Cumings. I. In reply to a severe critique of the recapitulation theory, or biogenetic law. by Hurst (30), Bather remarks that "If the embryologists had not forestalled them, the paleontologists would have had to invent the theory of recapitulation." (1) This may be considered as a fair sample of the general attitude of paleontologists of the Hyatt school, to which Bather belongs, toward the recapitulation theory. Even the more conservative paleontologists, while inclined to use the theory cum grano salts, recognize the weight of evidence that Hyatt and his coworkers in the realm of paleobiology, have brought together, as is evidenced by the following quotation from Zittel (65) : "Nevertheless embyrcnic types are not entirely wanting among invertebrates. The Pale- ozoic Belinurida? are bewilderingly like the larvae of the living Limulus. The pentacrinoid larva of Antedon is nearer many fossil crinoids than the full grown animal Among pelecypods the stages of early youth of oysters and Pectinidse may be compared with Paleozoic Aviculida?. Among brachiopods, according to Beecher. the stages which lhing Tere- hratulida* pass through in the development of their arm-skeleton correspond with a number of fossil genera. The beautiful researches of Hyatt, Wiir- tenburger and Branco. have shown that all Ammonites and Ceratites pass through a goniatite stage, and that the inner whorls of an Ammonite con- stantly resemble, in form, ornament and suture line the adult condition of some previously existing genus or other." In violent contrast with this full acceptance, or this guarded ac- ceptance of the theory on the part of the paleontologists, is the position of a considerable school of embryologists and zoologists.

  • Carboniferous Echinoderm Zonation in the Appalachian Basin, Eastern USA
    Wong, Th. E. (Ed.): Proceedings of the XVth International Congress on Carboniferous and Permian Stratigraphy. Utrecht, the Netherlands, 10–16 August 2003. Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences Carboniferous echinoderm zonation in the Appalachian Basin, eastern USA F.R. Ettensohn 1,W.I.Ausich2,T.W.Kammer3, W.K. Johnson 1 & D.R. Chesnut, Jr. 4 1 Department of Earth & Environmental Sciences, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506, USA; e-mail: [email protected] 2 Department of Geological Sciences, Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210, USA 3 Department of Geology and Geography, West Virginia University, Morgantown, WV 26506, USA 4 Kentucky Geological Survey, University of Kentucky, Lexington, KY 40506, USA Abstract The Carboniferous was a period of major echinoderm evolution, especially during Mississippian (Early Car- boniferous) time when crinoids, blastoids, and echinoids increased dramatically in abundance and diversity. The high degree of structural organization and distinctive morphologies of echinoderms make them ideal zonal indicators, and for parts of the Appalachian Basin Mississippian section, they provide greater biostratigraphic resolution than do conodonts or foraminifera. The occurrence of various echinoderm groups in time and space, however, is clearly related to the tectonic and sedimentologic differentiation of the Appalachian Basin through time. By Early Mississippian time on the Laurussian continent, most echinoderms had already made the shift to clastic-rich environments, which predominated in the basin until Middle Mississippian time. Although present, well-preserved Kinderhookian, Osagean, and Meramecian echinoderms are rare in the Appalachian Basin, and most are endemic forms with little diagnostic value. Echinoderms did, however, become especially abundant in the succeeding, late Middle and early Late Mississippian (Late Meramecian–Middle Chesterian), carbonate-rich seas, and it is for this time interval that biostratigraphic resolution, based especially on crinoids and blastoids, is best.

O h i the di ferent orders of Echinoderms ha l take up in turn the Echinoids , p s ff a uran , and Holothurians , and then compare these di erent larv e with what we know o f o u r s se e h o w f already of the development common Starfi h , to close the agreement o o f o f n is s s the mode formation the you g Echinoderm in these four orders , and to ati fy s o n s " ourselves how true are the uggestions made at that time , a very uperficial ac o f A ste racan th io n quaintance with any other Echinoderm larva except that , concerning f f the function of many o the organs o these wonderful larvae .
