Item description from seller

In English. 1965 First edition, Panstwowe Wydawnictwo Naukowe (Warsaw, Poland) 8 x 11 inches tall x 5/8 inches thick, ix, 168pp., nineteen full-page plates with descriptions on facing page. Brown paperbound in marbled brown wraps with black and red lettering to front cover. Both tips of book quite bumped, covers rubbed, edgeworn and marked with prior owner stamp. Some unopened signatures. Otherwise, a very good copy - clean, bright and unmarked. The second part of a comprehensive review of the order Psammosteiformes - a group of the subclass Heterostraci (one of the major divisions of the Agnatha, or jawless vertebrates). Part 1 (General) of this review, published as a separate volume - Palaeontologia Polonica No. 13 - contains an introduction to the Heterostraci as a whole. This work - Part 2 (Systematic) - contains full descriptions of, and comments on, all available psammosteid material, while in addition problems relating to morphology or evolution are discussed when they pertain to particular specimens. Although much of the material is described here for the first time, previously described material has also been re-examined, enabling a comprehensive critical assessment to be made of the entire order. Association copy: The prior owner, Craig Black (1932-1998), was a respected Vertebrate Paleontologist and Professor who served as Curator and later Director of Carnegie Museum of National History, and from 1982 until his retirement in 1994, Director of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. ~WW~.…
