Book Description
Excerpt from The Coral Siderastrea Radians and Its Postlarval Development The researches of the late Prof. H. de Lacaze-Duthiers (1873, 1897), Prof. G. von Koch (1882, 1897), and Prof. H. V. Wilson(1888) have made us acquainted with many of the early stages in the development of corals. They have served to establish such fundamental facts as the ectodermal origin of the madreporarian skeleton and the sequence of the primary mesenteries and septa, results which must ever possess an importance to the student of the Anthozoa. But for an understanding of many of the problems of adult coral morphology, especially those associated with the relationships of the mesenteries and septa, it has long been desirable that developmental stages later than those studied by the authors mentioned should be investigated. While resident in the West Indies I have followed day by day the postlarval growth of the coral Siderastrea radians (Pallas) for a third of a year, and secured the development of the tentacles and septa as far as the third cycle, and that of the mesenteries to the completion of the second cycle. The results are herein set forth. In many respects the mature polyps of S. radians are of peculiar morphological interest, but have never been fully described. An account is therefore first given of the external characters and internal anatomy of the adult colony, and afterwards of the development of the young polyp from teh free-swimming larva. The manner of appearance and the relationships of the tentacles, mesenteries, and septa are considered at some length, their establishment being the principal object of the investigation. The work was commenced while Curator of the Museum of the Institute of Jamaica, continued as Bruce Fellow at the Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, and concluded at the American Museum of Natural History, New York. For facilities afforded in carrying out the investigations I am under obligations to the Board of Governors of the Institute of Jamaica, Prof. W. K. Bnioks, of the Johns Hopkins University, and Prof. H. C. Bumpus, of the American Museum of Natural History. The research has been assisted by an appropriation from the Carnegie Institution.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
