The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Edwin Tulley Newton, on a paper 'Reptilian remains from the Trias of Elgin' by George Albert Boulenger

Reference number: RR/16/24

Date: 29 May 1903

Description

Sectional Committee: Geology

Recommended for publication in Philosophical Transactions. Thinks the restored outline of Hyperodapedon should be given in the text and also the two outlines of Stenoscrotopon[?], but the latter reduced in size. The sketches of three plates might well be put on two plates. The photographs do not show the fossils clearly and it is to be feared that the reproductions will be less clear. There is no description of the plates.

[Published in the Philosophical Transactions B, 1904]
