Excerpt from The Annals and Magazine of Natural History, 1922: Zoology, Botany, and Geology Canu and Bassler T say, We repeatedly have to remark that the zoarial form is of no value for generic classification. I certainly cannot go as far as this, and it brings us up against a most important point that requires settlement. It has been established tl1at, in the classification of the Cheilostomata, zooecial characters are more important than zoarial, but in the Cyclostomata the classification has been entirely based on zoarial characters. It is, however, often difficult to decide what is zooecial, what zoarial. In the Cheilostomata as a rule, each zooecium is only in growth-connection w1th its immediate neighbours, and there may be exactly similar zooecia adnate or erect, or placed back to back - as, for example, in Steganoporella and several other genera, - and it took some time before the last generation could agree to their being placed together. Zoarial characters Should, however, be stated in both of the suborders. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
