Bibliography of the Dry Dredgers
A catalog of the scientific contributions of our
organization
The references listed here fall under several categories (not
mutually exclusive):
- Publications with amateur Dry Dredgers
members as authors or co-authors. Such member names are
highlighted in the
citations below.
- Publications that acknowledge assistance
by the Dry Dredgers, either as a group or individual
members.
- Publications that mention personal
communications with Dry Dredgers members.
- Publications that make use of specimens
collected by Dry Dredgers members.
- Publications about the Dry
Dredgers.
- Research funded by the
Dry
Dredgers Paleontological Research Award.
This list is incomplete. In particular, we acknowledge the
dearth of citations older than the 1990s. We believe this is a "taphonomic
bias": more recent papers are often digitized and available
online, and consequently easier to search for Dry Dredgers
references. If you know of any references that belong in this
listing, please contact
Kyle Hartshorn with the citation and nature of the Dry
Dredgers contributions within.

Miscellaneous
Several Dry Dredgers have provided photos, sources, and other
assistance for Steven Holland's online guide to the stratigraphy
and fossils of the Upper Ordovician near Cincinnati, Ohio [strata.uga.edu/cincy].
A large portion of Jack Kallmeyer's collection was donated to
Ohio University in 2009. This collection has formed the basis of
several publications above and is heavily used by the Digital
Atlas of Ordovician Life [www.ordovicianatlas.org].
Dry Dredgers have contributed updates to R.A. Davis's
Bibliography on the Type-Cincinnatian [faculty.msj.edu/davisr/cintian/biblio.htm]
Various contributions to the Time Scavengers website/blog [timescavengers.blog]
