Delightful engraved frontispiece depicting various shells. OCLC 3214774 This First American Edition of Lamarck's Genera of shells is a gem from his oeuvre. During his lifetime Lamarck named a large number of species; e. G. The World Register of Marine Species attributes the names of more than 1 600 records to him. Lamarck 1744-1829 was a French naturalist soldier biologist taxonomist academic and an early proponent of the idea that biological evolution occurred and proceeded in accordance with natural laws. Today Lamarck is primarily remembered for a theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics called soft inheritance or Lamarckism. Previous owner is Sylvester Judd 1813-1853 clergyman lecturer and author. Judd received his degree from Yale in 1836 and then entered the Harvard Divinity School. In 1840 he became pastor of the Unitarian Church at Augusta Maine where he served until his death in 1853. He lived through New England's social and literary renaissance known as Transcendentalism and is best known for his novel MARGARET which was printed in 1845 and attracted critical acclaim. .

77600Genève Muséum d'Histoire naturelle de Genève 1918. Folio 31.8 x 24.3 cm. Title page ii pp.; 14 phototype plates each with four pp. descriptive text not numbered. Original printed wrappers. = A single part of a rare series this part containing the "Mollusques trachélipodes fossiles" and covering the Lamarckian and Linnaean genera Ampullaria Ancillaria Bulimus Cassis Cerithium Conus Cyclostoma Delphinula Lymnaea Melania Murex Natica Neritina Oliva Pyrula Scalaria Terebellum and Turritella; together illustrating and discussing type material of 66 species mainly - if not all - Tertiary Eocene species from the Paris Basin. This work was compiled by the Swiss palaeontologist and malacologist Ernest Favre 1845-1925. Published over a long period and containing other groups of animals too. Complete copies with all 177 plates are very rare: we found not a single auction record. A supposed "Deuxième Partie" was never published. We assume that it would have dealt with Lamarck's recent shells which are in the Geneva museum too. Wrapper split at spine fold and with some short tears. Otherwise very good; plates and text in excellent condition. Cat. BMNH Suppl. pp. 361 598. unknown
75176Paris G. Dufour et Ed. d'Ocagne 1823. 4to 29.8 x 22.0 cm. Half-title title page 30 pp.; 30 engraved plates by E. Piquenot with explanatory text leaves. Later green quarter cloth over plain boards. Gilt title on the spine. Original blind wrappers bound in. = Important conchological work by the great French naturalist Jean-Baptiste Pierre Antoine de Monet Chevalier de Lamarck 1744-1829 especially in regards of his view on palaeontology. "His description of the fossil fauna of the Paris Basin. led to his being accepted as the 'founder of modern invertebrate palaeontology'. The problem of extinction encountered in his research is thought to have been crucial in the formulation of the theories on evolution" Cleevely. The offered work is a re-edition of Lamarck's Mémoire sur les fossiles des environs de Paris initially published in the Mémoires of the Paris Natural History Museum with new additions partly by Cyprien Prosper Brard who engraved the plates himself. Brard 1786-1838 is known for his Histoire des coquilles terrestres et fluviatiles qui vivent aux environs de Paris 1815. Original 1955 invoice bound in the inferior paper offsetting on the adjacent leaves; some light marginal foxing on the plates which are rather curiously numbered as in the Mémoires. Apparently they were not re-engraved. The last two pages contain a list of other natural history books from the same publishers. Rare. Only two auction records since WWII. Cleevely R. J. 1983 World Palaeontology Collections p. 177; Nissen ZBI 2365. Not in Caprotti. hardcover
