Description:Excerpt from Memoirs of the Carnegie Museum, Vol. 6: Catalog of Fossil Fishes From the Carnegie Museum; Part III. Catalog of Fossil Fishes From the Lithographic Stone of Cerin, France In many cases where the same genera occur in both localities, they are found to be represented by different species, as is perhaps natural to expect from the point of view of geographic distribution. Besides the fishes, some fifty species of which were known from Cerin during the life-times of Louis Agassiz and Victor Thiolliere, mention should be made of the occurrence of Rhynchocephalian and Pterosaurian genera in the French deposits, also of a considerable number of insects and crustacea, apparently identical with those which are found in Bavaria. Of somewhat different nature lithologically, but yielding approximately the same ichthyic fauna, and regarded in consequence as the homotaxial equivalent of the beds at Cerin, is the Lower Kimmeridgian bituminous limestone of Orbagnoux, Ain, France. One of the pioneer students of this fauna, Victor Thiolliere of Lyons, writing in 1854, speaks as follows regarding the synchronism of the deposits at Orbagnoux, Cerin, and Solenhofen: "Les schistes d'Orbagnoux sont principalement representes dans la collection de M. Itier par leurs vegetaux nombreux et varies; mais ils avaient aussi fourni ... toute une serie de Thrissops, Leptolepis, Aspidorhynchus, Caturus, Pycnodus [= Microdon? Eastman] et autres poissons, que j'ai examines avec d'autant plus d'interet qu'ils m'ont donne la pleine conviction de l'identite de la faune ichthyologique des schistes bitumineux avec celle des calcaires lithographiques.
