George Jennings Hinde

Extensive studies on scolecodonts by George J. Hinde of material from England, Wales, Canada and Sweden [2][3][4][5] established a basis for the nomenclature of what he regarded as being isolated components of annelid jaws; but study of them lapsed thereafter for almost 50 years.

[citation needed] He also studied conodonts from Canada and the United States[6] or from Scotland.

[8] He published the Catalogue of the fossil sponges in the Geological Department of the British Museum (Natural History).

in 1883[9] In 1888, he published with John William Dawson New species of fossil sponges from Little Metis, province of Quebec, Canada.

The Hinde Medal is an award given by the Pander Society, an informal organisation founded in 1967 for the promotion of the study of conodont palaeontology.
