TitlePaper, 'Note on the structure of Rhabdopleura' by G [George] Herbert Fowler
CreatorFowler; George Herbert (1861-1940); English zoologist
Date1892
DescriptionFowler writes: 'The specimens investigated were attached to a colony of Lophohelia, obtained by the “Challenger” Expedition at Nightingale Island, from a depth of 100—150 fathoms. I owe to Mr John Murray my thanks for his courtesy in allowing me to publish my notes on the structure of this interesting form, in which I hoped that the improved methods of microscopical research introduced in recent years might reveal points which had, perhaps, escaped the two observers to whose study of the living animal we owe our present knowledge of Rhabdopleura.'

Annotations in pencil and ink.
