INDEX OF GENERIC NAMES OF
FOSSIL PLANTS, 1974-1978
By ARTHUR D. WATT
INTRODUCTION
This bulletin is a continuation of the series begun as "Index of
Generic Names of Fossil Plants, 1820-1950" (U.S. Geological Survey
Bulletin 1013, 1955) by Henry N. Andrews, Jr. Bulletin 1013 was
followed in 1970 by Bulletin 1300, also by Andrews; this encompassed
the period 1820-1965 and included a complete history of this project
and of the U.S. Geological Survey Compendium Index of Paleobotany,
the primary source of material for this series. In 1975, Anna M. Blazer
prepared a supplement (U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1396) that
covered the period 1966-1973. The present supplement generally
follows the format of the 1966-1973 Index, as well as the methodology
described therein by Blazer. Some older names inadvertently omitted
from the earlier bulletins have been incorporated here insofar as possi-
ble. This Index makes no attempt to include names of palynomorphs,
diatoms, bacteria, acritarchs, or dinoflagellates.
The original aim of this supplement was to cover the years
1974-1977, but RichardS. Cowan of the Botany Department, Smithso-
nian Institution, kindly made available to me unpublished manuscript
volumes of the "Index Nomina Genericorum" (later published in
November 1979). In this material, I found many fossil generic names
not encountered elsewhere: therefore, the coverage of this index has
been extended through 1978. In the Index, all names initially found in
the Index Nomina Genericorum are noted by the letters "lNG" at the
end of the citation; all entries taken either from quoted literature or
lNG and not seen by the present compiler are preceded by asterisks.
So that records of paleobotanical research may be kept as complete
as possible in the Compendium Index, it is urgent that all
paleobotanists contribute reprints or send notations of their publica-
tions to

2 INDEX OF GENERIC NAMES OF FOSSIL PLANTS, 1974-1978
I have had considerable, much appreciated help in conjunction with

the preparation of this supplement. The late Anna M. Blazer initiated
the work, and Sergius H. Mamay generally supervised it. Francis M.
Hueber, Smithsonian Institution, was always available for ,advice.
RichardS. Cowan and Ellen Farr, also of the Smithsonian Institution,
provided generous assistance through the lNG manuscript. The
librarians of both the U.S. Geological Survey and Smithsonian Institu-
tion gave invaluable assistance in locating publications.
