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.
