This book is a modern review of the major collection of Cambrian trilbites from the North China Platform. This collection, houssd in the U.S.National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, was acquired through the Camegie Institution Expedition of 1903-4 and ruiji Endo during his working at the northeastern China. Two major monographs, by C. D.Walcott in 1913 and by Ruifi Endo an dC. E. Resser in 1937. provided the initial descriptions, and the present book seeks to improve th eillustration as a hasis for fitting the taxa involved into ht emodern taxonomy. The 1100 illustrated typespecimens bolonging to 300 species of 107 genera, 30 families represent more than half of the known Cambrian trilobtte fauna of th eregion and inciude a high proportion of genotypes, critical to such studies throughout the world.
