TheBtsis of Classification of basis of cl .ssi- fication of animals is structure, only so many branches \ ine recognized as there are distinct plans of structure. It is generally understood that the structure considered is that of the adult, since many animals change greatly during their development. But in some cases, especially of degenerate forms, tne larval form shows, more clearly than the adult the true relationship. Consequently embryology must be called m as an aid in classification. Fossils also clear up many doubtful points in Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Colton, Buel P.
