Note 590 — Chapter XVI
Reading edition
Bd. vols. i. and ii. contain an admirable exposition of their habits and organization; and Brit. Assoc. Reports, 1839, 1841, elaborate osteological investigations of both genera. A folio volume on these extinct Reptiles, with splendid lithographs, by Thomas Hawkins, Esq., cannot fail to delight the reader by its graphic descriptions and beautiful illustrations. See also the masterly paper on the Ichthyosaur and the Plesiosaur, by the Rev. W. D. Conybeare, in the Geological Transactions, 1st series, vol. v. p. 559, et seq.
