The Journal carries a page charge of $65.00 per printed page or fraction thereof. Payment of at least 50% of pag< charges qualifies a paper for expedited processing, which reduces the publication time. Contributions from staff, researcl associates, and invited authors will be considered for publication regardless of ability to pay page charges, however, the ful charge is mandatory for nonaffiliated authors of unsolicited manuscripts. Three complete copies of the text (including titl< page and abstract) and of the illustrations should be submitted (one original copy plus two review copies which may b machine-copies). No manuscripts will be considered for publication or submitted to reviewers before all materials ar complete and in the hands of the Scientific Editor. Manuscripts should be submitted to Scientific Editor, Fieldiana, Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago, Illino 60605-2496, USA. Text: Manuscripts must be typewritten double-spaced on standard-weight, 8V6- by 1 1-inch paper with wide margin on all four sides. If typed on an IBM-compatible computer using MS-DOS, also submit text on 5%-inch diskett (WordPerfect 4.1, 4.2, or 5.0, MultiMate, Displaywrite 2, 3 & 4, Wang PC, Samna, Microsoft Word, Volkswriter, c WordStar programs or ASCII). For papers over 100 manuscript pages, authors are requested to submit a "Table of Contents," a "List of Illustrations, and a "List of Tables" immediately following title page. In most cases, the text should be preceded by an "Abstract" an should conclude with "Acknowledgments" (if any) and "Literature Cited." All measurements should be in the metric system (periods are not used after abbreviated measurements). The forma and style of headings should follow that of recent issues of Fieldiana. For more detailed style information, see The Chicago Manual of Style (13th ed.), published by The University o Chicago Press, and also recent issues of Fieldiana. References: In "Literature Cited," book and journal titles should be given in full. Where abbreviations are desirable (e.g., in citation of synonymies), authors consistently should follow Botanico-Periodicum-Huntianum and TL-2 Taxonomk Literature by F. A. Stafleu & R. S. Cowan (1976 et seq.) (botanical papers) or Serial Sources for the Biosis Data Base (1983 published by the BioSciences Information Service.

Classes Amphibia, Reptilia, Aves, and Ichnites John Clay Bruner Abstract Complete lists of the fossil types of amphibians, reptiles, birds, and trackways deposited in the collections of the Field Museum of Natural History are provided. The collections represent 152 holotypes, 482 paratypes, 8 cotypes, 1 doubtful neotype, and 53 casts of types from other museum collections. The catalogue number, the latest classification, a short description of the material, the type locality, the full citation, the pages on which the specimen was described, and listings of any figures are provided for each type specimen. Introduction This type catalogue represents the first time the Field Museum of Natural History has had a com- plete listing of the fossil vertebrate types deposited in the Geology Department. The museum had no accurate idea of how many types were in these collections. In some cases, specimen lots were marked as type specimens but were never pub- lished. In other cases, specimens were never marked as type specimens and were discarded or traded away. This list corrects mistakes made by the orig- inal authors in citing the type specimens. Some authors used the wrong prefixes to the catalogue number or quoted the wrong specimen number. It is hoped this catalogue will advertise the final resting place of the types. The collections of the Walker Museum of the University of Chicago now belong to the Field Museum, where they are de- posited. Yet the University of Chicago still re- ceives letters requesting specimens from the Walk- er Museum. There are a few other types deposited at the Field Museum that once belonged to other universities (for example, the University of Notre Dame and the Catholic University of Peking). I have also included a listing of casts of type spec- imens from other museums in the collections. Of- ten a cast can be as useful as the original specimen. Normally workers would not think of checking for copies of types at a museum other than the one at which the original is deposited. And, prior to this catalogue no list of casts of type specimens from other museums in the collections of the Geology Department had ever been prepared. Some mu- seums will not loan their type specimens. This list may be useful to those workers who need to see the specimen but cannot afford to travel to the museum where the original is deposited. In one instance, the holotype of a fossil snake is now lost to science, but a cast of the holotype still exists in the Field Museum's fossil reptile collection. This catalogue provides the latest classifications if the original identification of the type is not con- sidered valid. The classification scheme followed for the Amphibia and Reptilia, with a few excep- tions, is that of Carroll (1988). The Aves are clas- sified according to Brodkorb (1963, 1964, 1967). This listing gives the catalogue number of the lot, a brief description of the specimen, and the geo- logic age and the type locality for the holotype and cotype. The names of the collectors are given if known. The complete literature citation for each type is given as are the pages on which it was described and any figures of the specimens. Also, all paratype specimens are listed.

The abbreviation "fmnh" for Field Museum of Nat- ural History should always come first, followed by a space, followed by the prefix of the collection, followed by a space, and followed by the catalogue number.

CLASS AMPHIBIA The Field Museum's collection of fossil am- phibia includes 1 holotype, 2 paratypes, and 5 casts of types from other museums. The old Uni- versity of Chicago, Walker Museum's collection of fossil amphibia, now owned by the Field Mu- seum, has 41 holotypes, 1 cotype, 1 neotype, 80 paratypes, and 3 casts of types from other muse- ums. The most prolific author of fossil amphibia in the field Museum's holdings is Everett Claire Olson. In a series of papers (1939, 1941, 1947, 1951 [two], 1952, 1955, 1962, 1965, 1970, 1979), he described 1 2 holotypes, 1 neotype, and 36 para- types. E. C. Olson and Robert Broom (1937) de- scribed 1 holotype, E. C. Olson and Herbert Barg- husen ( 1 962) 1 holotype, Samuel Wendell Williston (1909, 1910, 1911, 1918) 6 holotypes and 1 para- type, Edward Drinker Cope (1871, 1874, 1877, 1885) 3 holotypes and 1 paratype. Roy Lee Moo- die(1909, 1916) and Ermine C. Case (1903, 1911) each described 3 holotypes. The following authors have described 2 holotypes: Robert E. DeMar (1966, 1967), Maurice G. Mehl (1913, 1921), E. B. Branson (1905), and Eleanor Daly (1973, and also 1 1 paratypes). The following authors have described 1 new species: Alfred Sherwood Romer (1936, and also 1 cotype), Robert Carroll (1964), John Ryan Bolt (1974, and also 4 paratypes), and Coleman J. Goin and Walter Auftenberg (1958, and also 2 paratypes). Indeterminate Amphibia Genus 1. Proterpeton gurleyi Moodie, 1916 uc 13296 HOLOTYPE. Vertebra.

Note: No specific description of this spec- imen or figures of this specimen were ever given by Olson. According to the rules of the International Code of Zoological Nomencla- ture, Article 75, Neotypes, a neotype can be designated for a given species only if through loss or destruction, no holotype, lectotype, or syntype exists. Since the holotype still exists at the American Museum of Natural History, and no adequate description was given for this specimen in Olson (1947), I question whether ur 27 can be considered a valid neotype. 36.

CLASS REPTILIA The Field Museum's type collection of fossil reptiles consists of 104 holotypes, 7 co types, 389 paratypes (not counting the paratypes for Varano- saurus brevirostris Williston, 1911), and 18 casts of types from other museums. Of the 1 04 holo- types and 7 co types, 65 holotypes and all 7 cotypes were once part of the University of Chicago's de- 12 FIELDIANA: GEOLOGY funct Walker Museum. Of the 389 paratypes, 223 were once part of the Walker Museum. The most prolific author of fossil reptiles in the holdings of the Field Museum is Everett Claire Olson. In a series of papers (1937 [three], 1941, 1951, 1954 [two], 1960, 1962 [two], 1965, 1968, 1970), he has described 23 holotypes and 195 paratypes. Everett Claire Olson and James R. Beerbower (1953) de- scribed 7 holotypes and 5 paratypes, Everett Claire Olson and Robert Broom (1937) 4 holotypes, Ev- erett Claire Olson and Herbert R. Barghusen ( 1 962) 2 holotypes and 19 paratypes, Rainer Zangerl (1944, 1945, 1947, 1953, 1960) 17 holotypes and 157 paratypes, Samuel Wendell Williston (1904, 1905, 1908, 1909, 1910, 1911, 1915, 1916) 14 holotypes and 1 paratype, Samuel Wendell Wil- liston and Ermine C. Case (1913)2 holotypes, Karl Patterson Schmidt (1931, 1938, 1940, 1941, 1944, 1 945) 8 holotypes and 7 paratypes, Edward Drink- er Cope (1875, 1877 [two]) 4 species in the type collection for a total of 1 holotype and 7 cotypes, Alfred Sherwood Romer( 1925, 1936, 1937) 4 ho- lotypes, Maurie G.

Paratypes: Williston described 3 prepared skulls, vertebrae and ribs, ventral ribs, the sacrum, caudal vertebrae, the pectoral girdle and ex- tremity, and the pelvic girdle and extremity from numerous specimens. Even the mounted skeleton of V. brevirostris is a composite. Since Williston did not cite the catalogue numbers of his referred speci- mens, I feel that the person who determines which specimens were used by Williston in the original paper should be an authority on pelycosaurs. Romer (1940, p. 276) avoided the problem altogether by stating: "All known specimens were obtained from the Cacops bonebed (VIIc) and were de- scribed by Williston. They include a good portion of the materials from this deposit included in Walker Museum numbers 884- 1 107. UM 3017 is a partial skeleton from this series." However, in the original Uni- versity of Chicago Walker Museum cata- logue, none of the above 1 24 lots cited by Romer as Varanops brevirostris (Williston, 1911) are actually presently labeled as V. brevirostris. Of the 1 24 lots, 62 are identi- fied simply as the genus Varanops. One of these lots has since been discarded (fmnh uc 927, February 1950) and four lots left the Walker Museum on exchange. There- fore, I will not attempt in this paper to de- termine Williston's paratypes. Family EDAPHOSAURIDAE 99.

CLASS AVES The Field Museum's type collection of fossil birds consists of two holotypes. Bryan Patterson described Andrewsornis abbotti in 1941. In 1960, Bryan Patterson and Jorge L. Kraglievich de- scribed Andalgalornis ferox. There are also 26 casts of types from other museums. The small number of type specimens of fossil birds reflects the feet that there has never been a paleoornithologist on fulltime staff at the Field Museum of Natural His- tory.

The Field Museum also has one cast of a type described by John L. Tilton in 1931. Because all of Moodie's trace fossils were described prior to December 31, 1930, these species remain valid according to Articles 16 a (viii) and 24 b (iii) of the International Code of Zoological Nomencla- ture.
