Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies Fossil Botany The Mesozoic Gymnosperms (chapter XIII.) now appear in quite a new light, owing to the brilliant elucidation of the flowers of the American fossil Cycadophyta by Dr. Wieland, whose work at last brings the great question of the origin of Angiosperms within the range of scientific discussion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Fossil Botany, Vol. 2: Spermophyta Since the previous edition appeared, the author's views as to the relationships of the Pteridosperms have changed. The theory that they were derived from Ferns no-longer appears tenable. The Seed Plants, of which the Pteridosperms seem to be the most primitive representatives known, are now regarded as an inde pendent phylum, running back as far as any of the recognised lines of the Higher Cryptogams.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Fossil Botany, Vol. 1 The third edition of these "Studies" has needed quite as thorough a revision as the second, owing to the continued advance of the subject during the last dozen years. In the earlier chapters of the present volume, however, the changes have been comparatively small; further information is given, for example, on the leaves of Calamites (p. 36) and the roots of Sphenophyllum (p. 87), but perhaps the most important addition, up to Chapter VII., is the new account of the remarkable Lycopodineous fructification, Mazocarpon, described by Dr. Margaret Benson (p. 213). When we reach the Ferns the alterations become considerable. The true nature of the root-zone in Psaronius is now cleared up, thanks to the work of the late Count Solms-Laubach (p. 274). The geological history of the Osmundaceae has been successfully traced by Kidston and Gwynne-Vaughan, and a summary of their important results is given (p. 278). The rapid growth of our knowledge of the Primofilices, owing to the investigations of Paul Bertrand, Kidston and Gordon, has rendered necessary a complete recasting of Chapter IX. (Botryopteridaceae), with very considerable additions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fossil Plants, Vol. 3: A d104-Book of Students, of Botany and Geology In the Preface to Volume II published in 1910 I rashly stated that it was my intention "to devote such space as is available within the limits of a text-book to the neglected subject of the geographical distribution of plants at different stages in the history of the earth," also that Volume III would be completed with as little delay as possible. Though nearly seven years have elapsed since the publication of the second volume it may fairly be said that the delay is not entirely due to causes which it was in my power to control. The subject of geographical distribution receives no connected treatment in Volumes III and IV for the simple reason that I underestimated the space required for the description of the Gymnosperms. The alternatives were either to insert a greatly compressed survey of the successive floras of the world at the end of Volume IV or to attempt a fuller and less technical treatment of the subject in a separate book. In choosing the latter course I am conscious that a further obligation is undertaken which it may not be possible to fulfil; but the risk is deliberately taken. Volume IV is in the press and will, it is hoped, be published before the end of 1917. It is a pleasant duty to repeat my thanks to many friends who have helped me in various ways.

Download or read book Fossil Plants Vol 2 written by A. C. Seward and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fossil Plants, Vol. 2: A Text-Book for Students of Botany and Geology I am well aware that while certain genera have received an undue share of attention in the present volume, others have been ignored or treated with scant consideration. For this inconsistency I have no excuse to offer, beyond the state ment that the subject is a large one, and selection is necessary even though the work consists of three volumes. The publication in 1909 of a collection of excellent photo graphs of Palaeozoic Plants, with brief descriptive notes, by Mr Newell Arber, as one of a series of popular Nature Books, bears striking testimony to the remarkable spread of interest in the study of the vegetation of the past, which is one of the outstanding features in the recent history of botanical science. In the list of illustrations I have mentioned the source of all figures which have been previously published. I would, however, supplement the statement of fact with an expression of thanks to corporate bodies and to individuals who have allowed me to make use of blocks, drawings, or photographs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies Fossil Botany The exceptionally rapid progress of Fossil Botany during the last eight years has rendered necessary a very thorough revision of this book, and the rewriting of considerable portions. At the same time care has been taken to maintain the original character of the "Studies" as a first introduction to "those results of palæontological inquiry which appear to be of fundamental importance from the botanist's point of view." No attempt has been made to extend the scope of the book, which now, as before, is concerned essentially with the morphological and evolutionary aspects of Palæobotany, but in every chapter new results of research have been incorporated. Chapters I.-IX. cover the Pteridophyta, i.e. those groups of Vascular Plants which may still be considered as, on the whole, Cryptogamic. Chapters X.-XIV. contain the Spermophyta, so far as they are dealt with, concluding with the chapter on "General Results."

This book was released on 2016-12-03 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of Paleontological Botany The first award of the Fellowship has been made to a distinguished student, who acquitted himself with the greatest credit during the three days of examination on Geology, Zoology, and Botany. I trust that the Fellowship will continue to stimulate our eminent students in future years. Having been a student of Natural Science along with Dr. Falconer, I feel a peculiar interest in doing what I can to promote the study of a subject to which he so successfully devoted his energies. In my endeavour to do so I have been encouraged by my friend and former pupil, Mr. William Carruthers, at the head of the Botanical Department of the British Museum, and a former student in Edinburgh under the late Professor Fleming. He has done much to advance our knowledge of Fossil Botany, and to him I am indebted for two of the plates and some of the woodcuts which illus trate this publication. He has given me most efficient assistance, and I have to return my best thanks for his kind aid. I am also indebted to my colleague, Professor Geikie, for his valued assistance. The neighbourhood of Edinburgh is rich in Fossils of the Carboniferous epoch, and much yet remains to be done to illustrate its Palaeontology. Such labourers as Geikie and Peach may be expected to give great assistance in the furtherance of our knowledge of Scottish Geology, so as to form a school which shall revive the reputation enjoyed by Edinburgh in the days of Hutton and Jameson. If I can be useful in encouraging students to take up the study of Palaeontological Botany, and to 'prosecute it with vigour, I shall feel that this introductory treatise has not been issued in vain. As one of the few surviving relations of Dr. James Hutton, I am glad to be able to show an interest in a science which may aid in elucidating the Theory of the Earth.
