Download or read book Heterochrony in Evolution written by Michael L. McKinney and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ... an adult poet is simply an individual in a state of arrested development-in brief, a sort of moron. Just as all of us, in utero, pass through a stage in which we are tadpoles, ... so all of us pass through a state, in our nonage, when we are poets. A youth of seventeen who is not a poet is simply a donkey: his development has been arrested even anterior to that of the tadpole. But a man of fifty who still writes poetry is either an unfortunate who has never developed, intellectually, beyond his teens, or a conscious buffoon who pretends to be something he isn't-something far younger and juicier than he actually is. -H. 1. Mencken, High and Ghostly Matters, Prejudices: Fourth Series (1924) Where would evolution be, Without this thing, heterochrony? -M. L. McKinney (1987) One of the joys of working in a renascent field is that it is actually possible to keep up with the literature. So it is with mixed emotions that we heterochronists (even larval forms like myself) view the recent "veritable explosion of interest in heterochrony" (in Gould's words in this volume). On the positive side, it is ob viously necessary and desirable to extend and expand the inquiry; but one regrets that already we are beginning to talk past, lose track of, and even ignore each other as we carve out individual interests.

Book Sedimentary Cover of the Craton in Canada

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early chapters of the volume present data and interpretations of the geophysics of the craton and summarise, with sequential maps, the tectonic evolution of the craton. The main body of the text and accompanying plates and figures present the stratigraphy, structural history, and economic geology of specific sedimentary basins and regions. The volume concludes with a summary chapter in which the currently popular theories of cratonal tectonics are discussed and the unresolved questions are identified.

Book Silurian Trilobites from the Northern Yukon Territory

Download or read book Silurian Trilobites from the Northern Yukon Territory written by Rolf Ludvigsen and published by Royal Ontario Museum, 1990. c1989.. This book was released on 1990 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silurian trilobites are described from two contrasting facies in the northern Yukon Territory: basinal sediments of the Road River Formation at Prongs Creek and shallow-water limestones of the Illtyd Range. An Otarion Association from dark grey, argillaceous lime mudstones (Lower Silurian) consists of Kosovopeltis, Otarion (Songkania), Cromus, and Leonaspis. These trilobites are identical to those described by Pousen (1934) from his Cape Schuchert Formation of North Greenland. A Stenopareia Association from off-white biosparites (Lower Silurian) includes Stenopareia, a bumastine, Kosovopeltis, and Scotoharpes. A Hedstroemia Association occurs in an Upper Silurian debris flow. It includes Hedstoemia, Prantlia, Balizoma, and Paracybantyx. An incomplete ontogeny of Kosovopeltis borealis (Poulsen) comprises a protaspis and four different transitory pygidia. The bumastine genus Paracybantyx is new. New species are Paracybantyx asulcatus, Stenopareia illtyd, Hedstroemia kutchini, H. sourdoughi, and Prantlia vagrans.
