Publisher's Synopsis
The Development of Some Silurian Brachiopoda is a scientific book written by Charles E. Beecher in 1889. The book focuses on the study of brachiopods, a type of marine invertebrate that has two shells and is related to clams and oysters. Beecher's research is specifically focused on the Silurian period, which was a geological era that occurred approximately 443 to 416 million years ago. The book provides a detailed analysis of the development of several different species of brachiopods during this time period. Beecher's work is considered to be an important contribution to the field of paleontology, as it sheds light on the evolution and development of these ancient creatures. The book is written in a scientific style and contains numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the complex anatomy and biology of the brachiopods. It is a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in the study of paleontology, marine biology, and evolution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
