A Monograph of the Silurian Fossils of the Girvan District in Ayrshire, with Special Reference to those contained in the “Gray Collection”

Abstract

THE authors of this monograph state in their preface that they have been enabled to undertake their task through the aid rendered to them by a grant from the Government fund administered by the Royal Society, and we cannot but feel in examining this first instalment of the result of their labour that the pecuniary assistance has been in this case exceedingly well bestowed.
