APPENDIX.

In this appendix I have placed not only such references as were overlooked in printing the preceding pages, and those that have been published during the two years of its passage through the press, but also all contributions to the literature of fossil insects of which only incomplete memoranda could be obtained, through allusions to them in the works of others. Diligent search has been made for the early literature of the subject, and especially of amber insects. Perhaps not one half the works or papers concerning amber referred to in bibliographies have been procurable in this country, and of those seen comparatively few contain references to insect-enclosures. The scattered allusions to amber insects taken from older authors and published later than the seventeenth century have in general been left unnoticed, as wholly valueless and uninteresting; but all others, where possible, have been introduced into the list in a more or less perfect form. The best notice of the early literature of amber will be found in Boehmer's Bibl. script. hist. nat, 4, 1: 468-477, 8°. Lipsiae. 1788. The few papers concerning the relationship of the Merostomata and Arachnida have also been introduced into this appendix, but the extensive literature of the Merostomata generally has not been added, as it should be, were the views of Van Beneden and Lankester to prove correct.

I am much indebted to many correspondents, but especially to Dr. H. A. Hagen, for assistance in preparing this bibliog raphy, which will certainly strike even those well acquainted with the subject as unexpectedly extensive. More than four hundred authors are represented as having concerned themselves more or less with fossil insects.-S. H. S.

He also criticises various authors and especially Schweigger for confounding copal and other gums with amber.

Concludes from a study of the embryonic development of Limulus that it presents the greatest analogy to that of scorpions and other arachnids from which the king crabs cannot be separated. "The Trilobites as well as the Eurypterida and the Poecilopoda must be separated from the class Crustacea, and form, with the Scorpionida and the other Arachnida, a distinct branch, the origin of which has still to be ascertained."
