The bibliography lists 166 references on the paleontology of Lesser Antarctica and the Scotia Ridge. It aims to identify all the paleontological discoveries made and to list all the major works on the subject. It is selective to the extent that many review papers are omitted if they add nothing new to previous literature. Conversely, essentially non-paleontological papers are noted if they contain an important item of paleontological data or comment. It runs from 1833 to 1975 and is presented in two parts: a list of papers in author order with a summary of each and a complete list of the species described, and a systematic index further subdivided by stratigraphical age.
