Excerpt from A Guide to the Shell and Starfish Galleries: Mollusca, Polyzoa, Brachiopoda, Tunicata, Echinoderma, and Worms, Department of Zoology, British Museum (Natural History), Cromwell Road, London, S. WOne of the large north galleries approached from the Bird Gallery is devoted to the exhibition of the extensive Glass of Mollusca. Specimens of the types of all the principal divisions of this Class are exhibited, either entire and preserved in spirit, or as models. However, as not the animals, but their shells have always been a favourite object of study, and a popular source of pleasure to collectors, the exhibition of the species of shells has been made as complete as the space of this Gallery admitted. It has thus proved adequate for the requirements of the majority of visitors and students who consult this Collection. A separate series of British Shells is exhibited in some small table-cases along the west wall.This Gallery also contains the exhibited series of Polyzoa, Brachiopoda, and Tunicata.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

About the Book Zoology is the biological science that investigates the animal kingdom, including the structure, embryology, evolution, classification, habits, and distribution of all animals, and how they interact with their ecosystems. During the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, zoology adopted an increasingly professional scientific approach. Explorer-naturalists such as Alexander von Humboldt investigated interaction between organisms and their environment, and cell theory opened up new perspectives on the fundamental processes of life. Darwin's insights united morphology and physiology into a common biological theory: the theory of organic evolution. This resulted in a reconstruction of the re-classification of animals on a genealogical basis, new approaches to the development of animals, and early attempts to determine genetic relationships between them. About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades. While these books may have occasional imperfections, we consider that only hand checking of every page ensures readable content without poor picture quality, blurred or missing text etc. That's why we: republish only hand checked books; that are high quality; enabling readers to see classic books in original formats; that are unlikely to have missing or blurred pages. You can search "Leopold Classic Library" in categories of your interest to find other books in our extensive collection. Happy reading!
