Excerpt from The Anatomy, Histology, and Embryology of Limulus Polyphemus Since the publication of my first paper on the development of the horse-shoe or king crab (Limulus polyphemus), in the Memoirs of this Society, I have, as opportunity allowed, made additional observations on the development of the larva, and also on the histology of the different organs, and especially the brain. In making the microscopic sections of the embryos and for a series of sections of a brain, the latter of which were unstained, I am indebted to Professor T. D. Biscoe. For mounting some of these sections for study, I am indebted to Dr. C. B. Johnson of Providence, R. I., who also kindly cut, stained, and mounted preparations of the digestive canal. Within the past year I again returned to a study of the brain, using the methods of staining employed by German observers, Dietl and Krieger, also by Mr. E. T. Newton. The sections of the brain were cut and stained, as also those of the eyes, parts of the stomach and rectum, kidneys and liver, etc., by Mr. Norman N. Mason, of Providence, R. I., who kindly devoted a great deal of time to the work. To his unusual skill and delicacy of manipulation, I am indebted for a large number of preparations much better than I could have made myself, and which have been of most essential aid in preparing this paper; so that portions of the histological part of this paper, especially that on the structure of the eyes, are really joint productions with Mr. Mason, as we together examined the preparations. Position of Limulus among Arthropoda. The researches of M. Alphonse Milne-Edwards on the anatomy of Limulus, proved that this animal, so far from being a genuine normal crustacean, is either the type of a group equal to all the other Crustacea, namely a sub-class of Branchiata; or, as several authors contend, should be regarded as the representative of a distinct class of Arthropoda. Before arguing what we now believe to be the true position of Limulus and the allied fossil forms, including the Trilobites, let us take a review of the different opinions of the leading zoologists who have done special work on the animal. The titles of their work will be found in the bibliographical list at the end of this paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
