Description

In preparing the descriptive portion relating to different groups of the Pelecypoda, a point was reached when it became necessary to consider the general arrangement. As recent (as of 1895) morphological and paleontological studies have thrown a new light on the relations of the Pelecypoda, necessitating a revision of the earlier systems; and as a complete revision is nowhere accessible in print; it was thought that a statement of the characters chiefly relied on for classifying these animals, with comparable diagnoses of the several families in zoological order, would be useful for students of Paleontology and might form a proper introduction to the descriptive part of this memoir.
