Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Monograph of the British Spongiadæ, Vol. 1 In treating a subject so new, and to a great extent so obscure, as the ´History of the Spongiadæ,´ it may reasonably be deemed necessary that the author should explain to his readers the origin and object of the work which he presents to them. The highly interesting and valuable researches of Professor Grant in the unexplored field of their anatomy and physiology published in the ´Wernerian Memoirs,´ and in the ´Edinburgh New Philosophical Journal,´ and the labours of Dr. Johnston, in collecting and identifying the species described by numerous authors, ably concluded and published in his ´History of British Sponges,´ in 1842, naturally created an interest in these singular creatures that had never before been excited to so great an extent, and which led naturalists to believe that a new and pleasing field of investigation lay before them.
