Osteology of the Reptiles by Alfred Sherwood Romer

Osteology of the Reptiles A Comparative Summary of the Reptile Skeleton, Living and Fossil, with a Classification of the Reptile Family by Alfred Sherwood Romer Alexander Agassiz Professor of Zoology and Director of the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University The Skeleton of Reptiles remains the only comprehensive review of variation in the skeletal anatomy of all reptiles groups, and so is still an indispensable resource for all systematists and anatomists of all sorts. His Classification and Range of Reptiles, the standard for decades, is now primarily of historical interest, but remains a good key to the correct interpretation of the descriptive section. Romer chose well-established genera and species as representatives, so most of his nomenclature remains recognizable to modern scientists; the new preface summarizes the changes. Paperback.
