Open publisher page 9 citations

Abstract

The morphology of all the external organs is deduced in detail: it is found to reveal the stages of origin of the arthropod from a particular type of polychaet, and to indicate the relationships of the different classes of arthropods. A summary of 18 conclusions is given.
