Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This text, the fifth volume of a wider work on the animal kingdom, meticulously studies the Sciaenidae family of fish. Also known as drums or croakers, these fish, found in both fresh and saltwater, are analyzed by the author for their internal structure, digestive system, and most notably their unique auditory apparatus, elaborated on with cross-sectional anatomical plates. As their name suggests, these fish produce drumming or grunting noises, which the author speculates is connected to their unusually complicated swim bladders â" hollow, gas-filled sacs that regulate buoyancy. The author categorizes the family's species into seven distinct groupings and dives into the physical attributes of each. Comprehensive in scope and rich in detail, this volume is an essential reference for ichthyologists, naturalists, and anyone with an interest in the diversity and complexity of the underwater world.

Its purpose as set forth was the furthering of Oriental research of all kinds, as well as the collection of manuscripts and other relevant materials. It began publishing the work and research of its members, all distinguished scholars, in its periodical journal "Asiatick Researches". A museum set up to house and display its holdings, as well as act as a hub or research was established in 1814. At first only Europeans could become members, but starting in 1829 Indian were allowed to join as well.

Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon, was a noted scientist whose monumental works in natural sciences influenced the next two generations of naturalists, including Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and Georges Cuvier. (Mayr, The Growth of Biological Thought. p 330) Buffon's work was based on the methods of observation and experimentation. He raised many of the fundamental problems of biology in a scientific context. One of Buffon's most important contributions was the popularization of the old earth theory, in opposition to Archbishop Ussher's biblical earth time-line. Buffon was an important pre-cursor to Darwin. Cited as the father of biogeography, Buffon's Law postulated that creatures "improved" and "degenerated" after dispersing from a center of creation. He based his theory on comparative anatomy studies. Buffon tried to explain the origin of living things by spontaneous generation of elementary particles and its development as a consequence of climate and diet. Buffon argued that all members of a family of species descended from the same ancestors, a "unity of type".
