"The collection of the fossils of the Isle of Wight fluvio-marine deposits was conducted chiefly by Mr. Gibbs, whilst I was at work upon the beds; and to his ability and minute observation the greatest credit is due" E.F. Quote from: On the Tertiary fluvio-marine formation of the Isle of Wight by E. Forbes. London: Printed for HMSO published by Longman, Brown, Green and Longmans, 1856.
