Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Synopsis of American Fossil Bryozoa, Including Bibliography and Synonymy
The extended investigations of the structure of fossil bryozoa made by Mr. E. O. Ulrich, following in the lines pioneered by Dr. H. Alleyne Nicholson, have shown that we can not be sure of the position of any form in the scheme of classification until we have learned its internal structure by means of thin sections examined microscopically. This mode of investigation is difficult and tedious, but our studies have convinced us that a knowledge of internal characters is absolutely essential to a correct understanding of phylogeny and systematic position.
