Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Monograph on the Sub-Class Cirripedia: With Figures of All the Species In nomenclature, I have endeavoured rigorously to follow the rules of the British Association, and have never, at least intentionally, broken through the great law of priority. In accordance with the rules, I have rejected, that is, as compulsory, all names given before the intro duction of the binomial system in 1758. I have given much fewer synonyms than is usual in conchological works for it is impossible to recognise with any approach to certainty, several even of the common European forms, in the short descriptions given by most authors; this holds good in many cases in which figures, in appearance excellent, have been added. I assert this the more confidently, from having had the advantage of having gone over some of the Linnean synonyms with Mr. S. Hanley. I may further venture to express my conviction, that giving references to works, in which there is not any original matter, or in which the plates are not of a high order of excellence, is absolutely injurious to the progress of natural history.

This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1854 edition. Excerpt: ...including little crests; and the lateral depressor muscle is attached to what may be described either as three or four parallel furrows or crests. Terga, with the spur placed close to the basi-scutal angle, so that there is no basal margin on that side; spur short, with its lower eud truncated and rounded; broad, even exceeding, when measured across the upper part, half the width of the valve. Articular furrow wide. Apex not beaked. Structure of Walls and Radii.--This species differs from all the others of the genus in having only a single row (fig. 3 d) of parietal tubes; these are large, quadrangular, but elongated in the ray of the circle. They are not filled up, even at the very top of the shell, but they become thickly lined all round with compact shelly matter. When the surface of the shell is disintegrated, these upfilled tubes greatly affect, as already stated, the external appearance. The outer lamina near the basis is internally strengthened by longitudinal, sharp, approximate ridges or plates, which, also, often affect, after corrosion, the external appearance. The radii have their sutural edges formed by a set of narrow, branching ridges or septa; the ends of which, seen externally, often give a notched outline to this edge; the recipient furrows in the opposed compartments are deep, and their edges likewise are often notched: the interspaces between the branching ridges are filled up solidly. The alee have their edges coarsely crenated. The lower edge of the sheath is not free. The mouth and cirri present no particular characters: the third cirrus has both its rami elongated, with the terminal segment tapering. In the three posterior pairs of cirri, the tufts of little spines between the main pairs are rather large....

Book The Sessile Barnacles Cirripedia Contained in the Collections of the U S National Museum

Download or read book The Sessile Barnacles Cirripedia Contained in the Collections of the U S National Museum written by Henry Augustus Pilsbry and published by . This book was released on 1916 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a continuation of the author's report on the Cirripedia contained in the United States National Museum, of which the portion relating to pedunculate forms was published in 1907. It was at first intended to record the species of sessile Cirripedia in the Museum, with their localities, and to describe and figure new forms. As the collection was worked over, its wealth in American barnacles became apparent and contains nealy every known species of the Western Hemisphere, many of which show variations special to American waters, altering the scope of this work which may now be described as a monograph of American sessile barnacles.

Download or read book The Sessile Barnacles Cirripedia Contained in the Collections of the U S National Museum written by Henry A. Pilsbry and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sessile Barnacles (Cirripedia) Contained in the Collections of the U. S. National Museum: Including a Monograph of the American Species By the copious illustration of American forms, by large-scale draw ings and photographs, their identification should be easier. Until one has studied barnacles deeply enough to have standards of com parison, even the inimitable descriptions of Darwin are difficult to follow, especially if one is dealing with forms differing somewhat from those described. The appeal to the eye will often relieve the student from uncertainty. Identifying by the pictures may be a primi tive and superficial method, yet such short cuts are permissible in case one merely needs the name of an animal which has been taken as the subject of embryological, ecological, or other non-systematic studies. The student must be warned, however, that many species have parallel mutations, vary in the same way under similar condi tions, so that external form by itself is rarely a reliable criterion. The opercular valves, the details of structure of the plates of the wall, and the structure of the feet are the important characters.
