Collected Papers by Othniel Charles Marsh. The volume is a compilation of Marsh’s classic paleontological and geological writings, published across the American Journal of Science and Arts and related venues in the late 19th century. It gathers Marsh’s foundational studies on North American vertebrate paleontology, including the description of major groups such as Dinocerata (e.g., Dinoceras), Brontotheriidae, and Coryphodontidae, as well as Mosasauroid reptiles and Pterosaurs. The collection also features work on Odontornithes (teeth-bearing birds) like Ichthyornis and Hesperornis, and extensive investigations into early mammals such as Orohippus, Miohippus, Anchitherium, Hipparion, Protohippus, and the evolution of the horse lineage. Additional essays cover fossil footprints, such as Protichnites, and topics in stratigraphy, stylolites, and the Newark mound and Nova Scotia gold discoveries, along with undertakings in the Uintah Mountains. Richly illustrated with plates and measurements, the volume showcases Marsh’s breadth in describing new taxa and shaping American paleontology and geology.
