Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Conchology: Or Elements of the Natural History of Molluscous Animals This Work was suggested by the perusal of Kirby and Spence's "Introduction to Entomology," and it is based on some letters which I contributed to Loudon's "Magazine of Natural History," between the years 1829 and 1834. This acknowledgment is necessary, for as the letters were anonymous, a reader might perchance be found to conclude that I had been guilty of plagiarism on rather an extensive scale. My object is to present the Conchologist with a view of the economical, physiological, and systematical Relations of Molluscous Animals to each other, and to other created beings. I am not aware of any other Introduction, in the English language, in which this has been attempted; and therefore my little ambition to occupy the vacant niche in the literature of a favourite department of natural science may be the more excused. I am very sensible that the Essay has not been satisfactorily accomplished; and it would have been still less so, but for the liberal permission given to me by Mr. Gray to avail myself of some of his valuable writings, the republication of which, in a more accessible form, cannot but be acceptable to the Conchologist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of Conchology, Vol. 1 of 2: An Introduction to the Natural History of Shells and of the Animals Which Form Them Edward forbes, in his delightful Natural History of the Euro pean Seas, ' remarks that in this age of volumes, a man had needs offer a good excuse before adding a new book, even though it be a small one, to the heap already accumulated. He should either have something fresh to say, or be able to tell that which is old in a new and pleasanter way. The imperfect knowledge which Conchologists have of the natural history of their Shells would seem to argue that there is yet room for something to be said in reference to the objects of their admiration; and if I have not much to say in the following pages that is fresh, I have, at least, done my best to tell what is in them in a pleasant way. To guide the collector in arranging his specimens, I submit a classification, on the Lamarckian system, of the genera, each with its list of species; and to lead him to meditate, whilst pondering over the treasures of his cabinet, upon the too little remembered fact of their once living existence, a description is given of the structural peculiarities and habits of the animals. For figures of shells, with the live mollusk, I have resorted chie y to the zoologies of exploring expeditions, published under the auspices of the French Government. The figure of s'mla is, however, an original one, from a specimen captured at Port Nicholson, New Zealand, by Mr. Percy Earl; and so also are those ofvi preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Initiamenta Conchologica, or Elements of Conchology: Comprising the Physiological History of Shells and Their Molluscous Inhabitants; Their Structure, Geographical Distribution, Habits, Characters, Affinities, Arrangement, and Enumeration of Species A brief survey should now be taken of the Animal Kingdom in order to show the rank and comparative importance of the Mollusca in the general range. We are encompassed by a mass of living beings, of whom we our selves constitute the grand type, whose nature and properties present a strange complication of affinities. For the sake of studying the several atoms of this complicated mass, and arranging them in order for reference, each individual is described and named according to what is called a bino mial method; that is, a method of two names, one denoting its general or generic character, the other its particular or specific character. And that the nomenclature may be of universal application, and acknowledged by all tongues and countries, it is adopted in the Latin.
