Abstract
THIS work forms a very valuable addition to the series of British Museum Catalogues, and will be welcomed by all palæontologists as giving a full and complete account of the specimens of fossil reptiles in the National Collection, many of which have an especial interest as being the “type-specimens” on which so many classical monographs have been based.
Catalogue of the Fossil Reptilia and Amphibia in the British Museum (Natural History).
Part 1., containing the Orders Ornithosauria, Crocodilia, Dinosauria, Squamata, Rhynchocephalia, and Proterosauria. By Richard Lydekker, &c. (London: Printed by order of the Trustees, 1888.)
