[Read lOth November, 1938 ; issued separately. 24th July, 1939.] (Plates XIII-XVI.) Summary. n this paper the Rugosa of Lily dale and Loyola are described andT figured, and a review is given of the genera and families to which they are assigned. Remarks on new septal structures are included. Both faunas, previously supposed Upper Silurian, are shown to be Devonian ; that of Loyola is probably Lower Devonian, and that of Lilydale older than Upper Devonian. The Faunas and their Ages. Corals have been known from Lilydale since 1890, when Etheridge described Favosites grandipora, referring to the age as Upper Silurian. The Rugosa from Lilydale have been described by Chapman ( 1914, 1925, 1931). Rugosa from Loyola were first described by Dun ( 1898), later by Etheridge ( 1899) and Chapman ( 1914) as Upper Silurian. -

The mission of the program is as follows: o To strengthen the Fish and Wildlife Service in its role as a primary source of information on national fish and wild- life resources, particularly in respect to environmental impact assessment. o To gather, analyze, and present information that will aid decisionmakers in the identification and resolution of problems associated with major changes in land and water use. o To provide better ecological information and evaluation for Department of the Interior development programs, such as those relatfng to energy development. Information developed by the Biological Services Program is intended for use in the planning and decisionmaking process to prevent or minimize the impact of development on fish and wildlife. Research activities and technlcal assistance services are based on an analysis of the issues, a determination of the decisionmakers involved and their informatlon needs, and an evaluation of the state of the art to identify information gaps and to determine priorities. This is a strategy that will ensure that the products produced and disseminated are timely and useful. -
Iii Silurian Fauna
III SILURIAN FAUNA By AUGUST F. FOERSTE THE SILURIAN FAUNA OF KENTUCKY By AUGUST F. FOERSTE THE SOURCE AND AFFINITIES OF THE SILURIAN FAUNAS In prehistoric times the North American continent was invaded by oceanic faunas from various directions. The tilting of the continent toward the south permitted the invasion of oceanic faunas from the Gulf of Mexico, and tilting toward the east, permitted invasions from the North Atlantic. There have been invasions also from the Arctic and Pacific. Some of these invasions extended far inland. Some from the Gulf of Mexico spread northward along the Mississippi embayment as far as the southern part of Canada, and some from the North Atlantic reached Ohio and Kentucky. As far as known, none of the invasions from the Arctic or Pacific reached Kentucky. In most Silurian faunas, the brachiopod element predominates. Three of the southern invasions—the Brassfield, Osgood, and Waldron—are characterized by the abundance of bryozoans, in addition to the brachiopods. The Brassfield and Waldron contain also a considerable number of gastropods, pelecypods, cephalopods, and trilobites, all of which are relatively scarce in the Osgood and Louisville. In the Osgood, on the contrary, there are numerous cystids, though almost all of these were described originally under the single generic name Holocystites. The Waldron is characterized by the considerable variety of crinoids. In the Laurel and Louisville bryozoans are rare. The Laurel is now characterized by numerous species of crinoids, a considerable number of which show affinities with crinoids occurring in Gotland and England. Possibly these invaded the American continent from some North Atlantic source. -

An extension built in the 1860s added a large gallery and mezzanine level with further gallery and storage space added in the 1980s. Collections are onsite in displays and a main storeroom. Size of collections 1,000-1,200 fossils. Onsite records Information is in an Adlib CMS database transcribed from several previous electronic systems and various paper documents, such as MDA and other index card systems, Gift Books, Accession Registers, free text catalogues, inventories and listings. Fossils are catalogued with other geological material as a series of numbered boxes with a list compiled in the 1980s by James Williams (1944- 2009). An online catalogue is available at: https://dgc-web.adlibhosting.com/home but does not yet contain fossil entries. Collection highlights 1. Permian vertebrate trackways from Locharbriggs and Corncockle quarries linked to Reverend Henry Duncan (1774-1846) and former curator Alfred Truckell (1919-2007). -
