XVI710 pp. and 14 engraved plates with many figs. A large clean copy. <br/><br/><em>First edition of Cuvier’s first work on comparative zoology being one of the foundational texts of modern zoology and comparative anatomy. "Cuvier’s Tableau élémentaire – his first separate work – contains the first general statement of his natural classification of the animal kingdom" Norman. The book thus constitutes the first systematic expression of a theory that would dominate zoological thought in the early nineteenth century. For later theorists it provided the essential morphological basis for tracing evolutionary continuity between extinct and living species. Based on the course of lectures delivered at the École du Panthéon Cuvier’s â€Tableau élémentaire presents for the first time his natural classification of the animal kingdom establishing the four great divisions of the animal world: Vertebrata Mollusca Articulata and Radiata – according to anatomical structure rather than superficial resemblance. It was from these studies of structural affinity between living forms that Cuvier developed the principles of comparative anatomy which in turn laid the groundwork for palaeontology as a scientific discipline.

76532Paris Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle 1819. 4to 31.1 x 22.2 cm. 29 pp. 351-379; three engraved plates numbered 26-28. Disbound. = A seldom-seen paper of taxonomical importance by the great French zoologist and anatomist Georges Jean Léopold Dagobert Cuvier 1769-1832 which lays the foundation for comparative zoology and phylogeny. Cuvier "laid the foundations of comparative anatomy. . It is in his classification of the animal kingdom into four main groups Vertebrata Mollusca Articulata and Radiata that he so notably succeeded in giving a lead that has been followed by all his successors. In contradiction to the current view that the structure of an animal determined its functions and habits Cuvier held that an animal's structure was due to its functions and habits. . He also saw that . homogeneity in an individual should enable a competent naturalist to reconstruct a complete animal from any significant part of its anatomy" PMM. Published in the fifth volume of the Muséum's Mémoires. Uncut with the widest possible margins. Some mostly marginal spotting otherwise very good complete. Dean I p. 286. unknown
