The Structural Features Of The Bryozoan Genus Homotrypa: With Descriptions Of Species From The Cincinnatian Group (1903)

The book titled ""The Structural Features Of The Bryozoan Genus Homotrypa: With Descriptions Of Species From The Cincinnatian Group (1903)"" by Ray Smith Bassler is a scientific work that focuses on the structural features and descriptions of species of the bryozoan genus Homotrypa from the Cincinnatian group. The book was published in 1903 and is a comprehensive study of the morphology, anatomy, and taxonomy of these bryozoans.Bryozoans are aquatic invertebrates that form colonies of interconnected individuals, and the genus Homotrypa is a common fossil form that dates back to the Ordovician period. The book provides a detailed analysis of the skeletal structures, reproductive organs, and other features of Homotrypa, including the variation in form and size of the species found in the Cincinnatian group.The author, Ray Smith Bassler, was a prominent American paleontologist and geologist who specialized in the study of bryozoans. He was a professor of geology at the University of Missouri and served as the president of the Geological Society of America.The book is written in a scientific style and includes numerous illustrations and diagrams to aid in the understanding of the subject matter. It is a valuable resource for researchers and students of paleontology, geology, and biology who are interested in the morphology and taxonomy of bryozoans.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
