THE EVOLUTION OF MAN. 



TABLE I. 



List of the principal branches of Biogeny, or the History of Organic 

 Evolution, with reference to the four chief stages of Organic In- 

 dividuality — Cell, Organ, Person, and Eace.** 



( 



First branch of Biogeny, 

 or of the history of the 

 evolution of organisms: 

 Germ-History, or On- 

 togeny (history of the 

 development of the 

 embryo of the in- 

 dividual organism). 



Germ-history of 



Forms. 

 (^Morphogeny .^ 



2. Germ-hit-tory of 

 Functions. 

 (^Fhysiogeny ) 



^1. Germ-history of the cells (and cytods) 

 and of the tissues composed of the cells. 

 Histogeny. 



2. Germ-history of Ihe organs, and of the 

 systems and apparatus composed of the 

 organs. Organogeny. 



3. Germ-history of the persons (called 

 " the history of the evolution of bodily 

 form"). Blastogeny. » 



4. Germ-his'ory of races (or of social 

 aggregates composed of persons : fa- 

 milies, communities, states, etc. Cor- 



^ vwgeny. 



' The germ-history of the function?, or the 

 history of the development of vital 

 activities in the individual, has not yet 

 been accurately and scientifically in- 

 vestigated. 



TI. 



Second branch of Biogeny, 

 or of the history of the 

 evolution of organisms : 

 Tribal History, or 

 Phylogeny (history of 

 thepalaiontological evo- 

 lution of organic 

 species). 



i. Tribal history 



of Forms. 

 {Morphophyly.) 



i. Tribal history 



of Functions. 



(^Physiophyly.) 



(\. Tribal history of the cells (hardly at- 

 tempted as yet). Histophyly. 



2. Tribal history of organs (an unrecog- 

 nized main object of comparative ana- 

 tomy). Organophyly. 



■{ 3. Tribal history of persons (an unrecog- 

 nized main object of the natural system 

 of classification). Blastophyly. 



4. Tribal history of races (or of social 

 aggregates composed of persons : fa- 

 milies, communities, states, etc. Cor- 

 ^ mophyly. 



(The tribal history of the functions, or the 

 history of the paliEoutological develop- 

 ment of vital activities, has, in the case 

 of most organisms, not yet been ex- 

 amined. In the case of man, a large 

 1 art of the history of culttu'e falls under 

 thib head.
