Book Description
Excerpt from A Monograph of the Free and Semi-Parasitic Copepoda of the British Islands, Vol. 1 Since the publication, by the Ray Society in 1850, of Dr. Baird's work on the 'British Entomostraca, ' much has been done by various authors in this country as well as of the Continent of Europe and in America, to extend our knowledge not only of the morphology and physiology of the group, but also of its distribution, both fossil and recent. Dr. Baird's work admirably fulfilled its purpose of gathering together what was at that time known of the British species, a very large amount of this knowledge being derived from the painstaking researches of the author himself.

Book Description
Excerpt from A Monograph of the Free and Semi-Parasitic Copepoda of the British Islands, Vol. 2 Second pair sometimes foot-like, but mostly forming a strong prehensile uncinate hand. First pair of feet mostly (though not always) different from the following pairs and converted into a prehensile apparatus; second, third, and fourth pairs adapted for swimming; fifth pair 2-jointed, foliaceous; different in the two sexes, the basal joint usually dilated and more or less embracing the smaller apical joint. Eyes as in Cyclops. Heart wanting. Copulative organs in the female symmetrical, in the male usually asymmetrical. Ovisac in most cases single, rarely double. This family, according to the arrangement here adopted, contains thirty-three genera and eighty-one species, and is therefore by far the largest of the nine families coming within the range of the present Monograph. The limits of the family are precisely those adopted by Claus and Boeck, except that the group erected by the former author into a separate family under the name Peltidid are here (as also by Boeck) included amongst the Harpacticid . There is, in fact, no important structural difference between the two, the point relied on by Claus as distinctive being the flattened form of the Peltidid, which is of no great importance in itself, and is found in certain species of some genrea (e.g. Thalestris), the normal form of which is cylindrical.

Book Description
This sketch of the Natural History of the Crustacea deals chiefly with their habits and modes of life and attempts to provide, for readers unfamiliar with the technicalities of Zoology, an account of some of the more important scientific problems suggested by a study of the living animals in relation to their environment.
