PREFACE.
THE Diiitoms liave perhaps been more thoroughly studied
than the other Algie, e8i)eciaUy within the past fifty years.
Among the noted investigators of American Diatoms was Dr.
G. C. Ehrenberg, of Berlin, Germany, who in his several visits
to this country, made careful explorations all the way from the
Altantic to the Pacific coast. His labors resulted in his cele-
brated work on Microgeologie or Microscopic Organisms (Diato-
maceje) published 1854-5(), besides numerous short papers in the
Journals ofthe Academy ofthe Natural Science ofBerlin. Pre-
vious to Ehrenberg's publications, Prof. J. N. Bailey, of West
Point, N. Y., turned his attention to the Diatoms of the United
States, and frequently contributed papers on this subject to the
American Journal of Sciences and Arts (Siliman's Journal)
New Haven. In IS.'iO the Smithsonian Institute published
his Microscopical observations in South Carolina, Georgia
and Florida. Somewhat later, A. M. Edwards published
several papers on the United States Diatomacese ; and J. N.
Lewis, M.D., contributed between 1861-65, notes on ''New
and Barer Species of Diatoms ofthe United States Sea Board;"
"On New and Singular Forms," etc. From this time contribu-
tions to the literature of Diatoms became more numerous. One
of the most valuable of them, appeared in The Lens, Chicago,
1872, by Prof. H. L. Smith, entitled "A Conspectus of the
Families and Genera of the Diatomaceaj." Among other prom-
inent investigators are Prof. J. D. Cox, of the Law School of
Cincinnati, Dr. H. H. Chase, of Geneva, N. Y., and later of
Michigan C. S. Peticola«, of Eichmond, Va., an industrious
;
collector of the fossil Diatoms in his vicinity Massrs. Briggs
;
4 and Thomas, of Chicago, whose names are associated with the
local Diatomaceaj; Kain, of Philadelphia, Pa., familiar with the
formsabout Atlantic City, N. J. Shultze, whose field is Staten
;
Island and the neighborhood of New York City Vorce, of
;
Cleveland, Ohio, Newcomer, of Indianapolis, Ind., M. A. Booth,
Longmeadow, Mass., and many others, all of whom have ren-
