fragmens, par Conybeare, avant que la d couverte d'un squelette presque entier trouv encore Lyme Regis par miss Mary Anning, soit venue confirmer les savantes conjectures du g ologue anglais. Ce beau Fossile, achet , dit-on, la somme de cent louis par le duc de Buckingham, a t mis par lui, dans le pur int r t de la science, la disposition des membres de la Soci t g ologique de Londres, pour qu'ils puisseut le faire dessiner et le d crire. Nous avons eu l'occasion d'examiner avec soin cette

Nous avons vu pendant le voyage que nous avons fait en Angleterre, l'ann e derni re, le plus bel chantillon qui existe de cette esp ce; il tait encore en la possession de miss Mary Anning qui a recueilli sur les c tes de Lyme Regis presque tous les Fossiles du Lias qui depuis sont devenus c l bres par les travaux auxquels ils ont donn lieu.

fossilist in her laborious and sometimes dangerous pursuit. It is to her almost exclusively that our scientific countrymen, whose names have been already mentioned, owe the materials on which their labours and their fame are grounded, nor, we are persuaded, will they be unwilling to admit that they are indebted for some portion of their merited reputation to the labours of Mary Anning. We shall terminate this long account of fossil reptiles with the notice of one discovered by Gideon Mantell

, was seven inches and a half long, with a breadth of nearly three inches. The hinder paddle was a little less both in breadth and length. The head of I. communis, possessed by the Baron, must have been at least two feet and a-half in length: therefore, it announces an individual nine feet long, or thereabouts. A skeleton, discovered on the coast of Dorsetshire by Miss Mary Anning, has, however, been referred to this species, though only five feet long. In fact, the size may vary very considerably
