Hi Peter,
 
With your interest in Cerion, you"ll want to find a copy of "Natural History"
magazine, dated 4/83. Stephen J. Gould wrote a rather lengthy, but very
"readable" article about the genus. It will give you some perspective on the
current status (well, as it was at that point) of the group.
