THE AMERICAN ANATOMICAL MEMOIRS 



This series of Monographs was begun for the purpose of presenting the results of original 

 investigations which were too extensive for incorporation in the current periodicals. 



Since the early issues of the series the demands of biological science in our country for a 

 publication of this type have become more urgent and more clearly defined. It is the intention 

 of The Wistar Institute and of the Editors to provide, as far as possible, for these needs and to 

 continue in a more formal manner the publication of the scries which is intended to receive 

 extensive original monographs based on either experimental or descriptive investigations in the 

 field of Anatomy. 



This series is open to all qualified investigators in Anatomy. The journal is edited by 

 Dr. George S. Huntington with the collaboration of Dr. Charles R. Stockard and Dr. Herbert 

 M. Evans. 



The publication will appear as consecutive numbers of varying sizes issued at irregular 

 intervals, each number containing but one monograph. Bibliographic cards, with authors' 

 iibsl i ads, are issued in advance of each number. 



The first seven numbers of the series appeared under the title of "Memoirs of The Wist a r 

 Institute of Anatomy and Biology."
