of embryology held out to us of solving such questions by 

 short cuts, hopes which have not been and, I fear, never 

 will be realised, have drawn away attention too much from 

 the analysis of adult forms. Every animal group contains 

 in itself the record of its past, if we could decipher it. In 

 some cases, such as those here dealt with, this is compara- 

 tively easy, but in others the record is so obscured that we 

 may have to wait for fresh clues before we can unravel it. 



In the meantime a more thorough comparative analysis 

 of the forms of life at our disposal would not only bring us 

 nearer to the solution of many an interesting problem, but 

 w^ould actually reveal to us clues which lie around us waiting 

 to be recognised.
