Extract

The material upon which the following descriptions are based was obtained chiefly by Mr. Ussher, who collected the Whiteway and Hestow Farm specimens. The Daymer Bay form was collected by Mr. John Pringle. For the new species of Proetus I am indebted to Mr. Claude H. Peter, Town Clerk, Launceston, who, through Mr. Clement Reid, kindly lent it for description. It is evident from the examination of this limited quantity of material that the British Devonian fauna is not yet fully known. We may expect the discovery of many species hitherto unrecorded in this country, which will be of interest from the possible comparative relationship with the fauna of foreign deposits. The accompanying illustrations were drawn by my colleague, Mr. H. H. Thomas, to whom I tender my best thanks.
