An exposition of fallacies in the hypothesis of MrDarwin . Figs. 7 and 1^.—Amphtoxxjs lanceolatus (or Lancelet).

The next phase in human genealogy,according to Darwin, is the cartilaginous fishes, ofwhich the sturgeon is typical. I give a Fig. 8.—The Stubgeon, From a specimen taken at Oaklej, Essex.(Drawn by Gr. Reed.) Mark the vast chano;es in time which must haveoccurred before the amphioxus could have beenevolved into the sturoreon. Still more does this remark 320 FALLACIES OF DARWINISM. apply to the next phase, for nothing can be moredifferent than the sturgeon with its isinglass swim-bladder and the lepidosiren, an amphibian reptile, inwhich is found the first appearance of a lung.
