Excerpt from Paleontology of the Eureka District, Vol. 8 Sir: I have the honor to transmit herewith the report of Mr. Charles D. Walcott on the "Paleontology of the Eureka District" The publication of Mr. Walcott's monograph marks an era in the history of the Paleozoic paleontology of the Far West. Heretofore the collections of fossils obtained have been in most instances small, incomplete, and hastily gathered from more or less widely separated localities. If the species obtained proved sufficient to determine the geologic horizons for the purpose of comparative study, little more was expected. Now we possess the results of a careful survey of a district with a rich fauna, through 30,000 feet of Paleozoic strata, representing the Cambrian, Silurian, Devonian, and Carboniferous rocks. Mr. Walcott's intimate knowledge of the geological and structural features of the district lends additional weight to his own special labors. I regard bis report as the most important contribution yet made to the invertebrate paleontology of the Basin Ranges, and of great value in its bearings upon the geology of the Cordillera, which under your guidance we are gradually working out.

The United States Geological Survey (USGS) is a scientific organization created in 1879, and is part of the U.S. government. Their scientists explore our environment and ecosystems, to determine the natural dangers we are facing. The agency has over 10,000 employees that collect, monitor, and analyze data so that they have a better understanding of our problems. The USGS is dedicated to provide reliable, investigated information to enhance and protect our quality of life. This is one of their bulletins.

Not illustrated. 1886 Excerpt: ...Ford is very closely related to this species, and, I think, not more than a variety of it, as the characteristic depression on the flattened face of H. Emmonsi is slightly shown on a specimen of ff. communis, and other specimens still further unite them. Formation and localities.--Middle Cambrian. Iu conglomerate limestones of St. Simon and Bic Harbor below Quebec, on the St. Lawrence River, Canada; also, in the even-bedded and conglomerate limestones on the ridge east of Troy, New York. Hyolithes Communis var. Emmonsi Ford. Plate xiv, figs. 4, 4a, ft. Salterella Ford, 1871. Amer. Jour. Sci., rtd ser., vol. ii, p. 3.1. Hyolithes Emmonsi Ford, 187:t. Amer. Jour. Sci., 3d ser., vol. v, p. 214, ligs. 3a-o. Original description.--"Shell elongate, slender; apex ueatly pointed, transverse section subtriauguhar; sides gently rounded and meeting to form a tolerably prominent though often scarcely perceptible dorsal ventral ridge in the forward partof the-shell, which quickly dies down, so that a transverse section takeu near the apex would be almost a semicircle. Ventral dorsal side flattened, with a wide, shallow depression along the middle, which runs the whole length of the shell; lateral edges rounded up to the sides. The most projecting point of the lateral walls occurs c'ose to the veutral dorsal side. When the width is 0.24 of an inch the depth is 0.18 of an inch. The walls of the shell are thick and appear to be made up in some instances of successive layers of lanrinae. The surface is ornamented with very fine con ceutric striae, which run directly around the shell or at right angles to its longitudinal axis. The tubes sometimes attain a length of '2 inches, even when imperfect, but the majority of the specimens in my possession are less than an inch ...
