Analyse cle la Nature ou Tableau de I'Univers et des corps organises par C. S. 

 Eafinesque. Palerme, 1815. 



In the " Tableau des Classes Somobiques," the Eegne Animal is divided into ten classes, of 

 which four belong to the first Sous-Efegne, " Zostolia ; " the remaining six to the second 

 Sous-Eegne, the " Anostia, Anostiens," which have " Point de squelette osseux, ni d'epine 

 dorsale vertebr<5e, un cerveau ou une moeUe longitudinale noueuse centre du systeme 

 nerveux." The first " Sur-Classe " is the " Condylopia, Condylopes," with " des membres 

 articul^s et une tete ; jamais de coquiUe." This contains Class V., the " Plaxolia, Crus- 

 taces," with " des Branchies, un cceur et des vaisseaux sanguins," and Class VI., " Entomia, 

 Insectes." He disapproves the classifications of the Crustacea made respectively by Fabricius 

 and Latreille, preferring Lamarck's division of them into Pediocles and Sessiliocles. 



The subclass Sessilioclia he thus defines : — " Yeux sessiles, non mobiles, ou efiac^s ou un seul 

 ou aucun; tete articulee ; ordinairement plus de 10 pattes exongul6es et chaque paire 

 inseree h, un article." He includes in it the orders " 4, Ostracinia," " 5, Pseudopia," 

 " 6, Branchypia." The sixth order, " Branchypia, Les Branchypes " contains the following : —

 senre or genus.
