Excerpt from Notes on Osteology of Baptanodon: With a Description of a New Species

It may be well at the beginning to give an outline of the work done. At the outset the writer resolved to go over the whole state, and to collect specimens in as many different localities as possible. Very soon, however, it was discovered that the different parts Of the state are of unequal interest. Large tracts, located chiefly in the central, northern, and northeastern parts Of the state, proved to be rather uninteresting, only one species Of crawfish being present in them, while the western, and chiefly the southwestern, and again the southeastern sections Offered more variety. Thus it became necessarv to pay more attention to the latter areas. The uninteresting regions were entered only in a few cases, but a good deal of work was done around their edges, in order to trace their limits as accurately as possible.
