On the Remains of Labyrinthodonta from the Keuper Sandstone of Warwick, preserved in the Warwick Museum

Abstract

A collection of Labyrinthodont remains from the Keuper Sandstone of Warwick has been intrusted to me for description by the Council of the Warwickshire Natural History and Archæological Society. It includes all the material acquired by the Warwick Museum since 1842, the date of publication of Professor Owen's well-known memoir “On Species of Labyrinthodon from Warwickshire”, which contained figures of all the fossils accumulated up to that time. I now propose to describe the additional collection, and afterwards to review Prof. Owen's determinations. It may thus be possible to combine in one paper all the information on the subject at present accessible. The Warwick Museum is fortunate enough to possess nearly all the fragments of Triassic Labyrinthodonts hitherto found in this country.
