Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Monograph of the British Fossil Trigoniae The importance of the Trigoniae both zoologically and stratigraphically appears only lately to have been sufficiently estimated by either the naturalist or the geologist. The gradually increasing occurrence of these forms, and their relationship to the zoological assemblages with which they are connected, may be considered as so many features of constantly increasing interest and importance to science, whatever may be determined upon as to their status whether as species or varieties. It is only within the last few years that Tertiary Trigoniae of the Pectinidae group have been discovered in Australia. The Tertiary formations of the other continents are, as far as we yet know.
