A propos de cet article

Carpenter, W.B. Four papers, including three of a four-part series (some of the earliest on foraminifera, 1856-1860), plus a later paper from 1883, with a total of 158pp and 15 beautiful plates. All are disbound without wrappers from "Philosophical transactions", though the papers are crisp and bright. Includes: [++] "Researches on the foraminifera. Part 1. Containing general introduction, and monograph of the genus Orbitolites." "Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society", London, 1856, vol 146: 181 236, with 5 beautiful engraved plates. [++] With: "Researches on the foraminifera Part II. On the genera Orbiculina, Alveolina, Cycloclypeus and Heterostegina." Philosophical Transactions, 1856, vol 146: 547 569, with 2 lovely plates. [++] With: "Researches on the foraminifera fourth and concluding series." Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, London, vol 150 (1860): pp 535 594, with 6 excellent plates. [++] AND with: "Researches on the foraminifera. Supplemental Memoir. On an abyssal type of the genus Orbitolites: a study in the theory of descent." Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, London, 1883, vol 174: 551 573, 2 lovely plates.[++] "Most early workers in the field of foraminifera were learned gentlemen with great curiosity and broad interests who pursued microscopy as a hobby. Through their careful observations, Carpenter and Williamson laid the foundations of our understanding of morphology, growth plans and wall structure. They made their observations at a time when the zoological affinities of foraminifera were still under discussion. Because of the variability of form they took a broad view of taxonomic relationships, especially of genera and species, which strongly influenced later workers. J. Micropalaeontol. 31(2): 159 167, July 2012."--John W. Murray, "Early British students of modern foraminifera: Carpenter and Williamson." Journal of Micropalaeontology, 31: 159 167. [++] This series is missing Part III: "Researches on the foraminifera. Part III, Containing general introduction, and monograph of the genus Orbitolites." So it goes. FNCH30. …
