paleonet Announcing: Website about d'Orbigny's bryozoan genera

[Phil Bock <pbock@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Cretaceous bryozoans of Alcide d'Orbigny (1851-1854)

Paul Taylor (NHM) and Dennis Gordon (NIWA, NZ) have been preparing 
illustrations using SEM on uncoated material, from the type specimens of 
d'Orbigny in the MNHN in Paris. A website is available, with the first 
results from this project, mainly of Cretaceous Cyclostomata 
(Tubuliporata). Each type species is illustrated with the original figure 
from 'Terrain Cretace', and with several SEM's.
