The present volume is "apparently a supplement Pidgeon prepared for Cuvier's Recherches sur les ossemens fossiles" Smith p. 188 and includes illustrations reproduced from that work. The question of human contemporaneity with extinct fossil mammalia is discussed on pp. 21-36: "The result then of all our investigations serves to prove that the human race was not coeval with the fossil genera and species: for no reason can be assigned why man should have escaped from the revolutions which destroyed those other beings nor if he did not escape why his remains should not be found intermingled with theirs" p. 22. Scheuchzer's Homo diluvii testis later shown to be the fossilized remains of an extinct giant salamander is discussed on pp. 333-334. OCLC states that this volume is called "Supplementary volume on the fossils"; however this notice is not present in this copy.
