Excerpt from The Ancient Fauna of Nebraska: A Description of Remains of Extinct Mammalia and Chelonia, From the Mauvaises Terres of Nebraska In the earliest known palaeozoic rocks, remains of invertebrate animals only have been found, and fossil fishes are first discovered in the upper Silurian forma tions.
