Description
Excerpt from The Organization of Trilobites: Deduced From Their Living Affinities, With Systematic Review of the Species Hitherto Described
The object of the present work is the carrying out such an illustration of the subject in all its parts. Having almost exclusively occupied myself with the study of the Articulata, especially of insects and crustaceous animals, I have collected the materials upon which I based my undertaking with diligence and circumspection; I have most carefully tested all analogies as well as more remote relations; I have frequently consulted with my friends; and I have thus gradually progressed with my subject until the present moment, when leisure is at last afforded to me to devote myself entirely to the work, and to present it to the public in its present state.
Previous, however, to communicating my own researches, I beg to lay before my readers a short sketch of the information which has hitherto been known respecting the Trilobites.
