Book Overview

The Optic Chiasma of Teleosts: A Study of Inheritance (1906) is a scientific book written by Austin Park Larrabee. The book focuses on the optic chiasma of teleosts, which is the point in the brain where the optic nerves from both eyes cross over. The author explores the inheritance patterns of this structure in various species of teleosts, which are a diverse group of fish that include salmon, trout, and carp. Larrabee's research involves detailed anatomical and histological examinations of the optic chiasma in different species, as well as observations of the development of the structure in embryos. The book also discusses the significance of the optic chiasma in the visual system of teleosts and its relationship to other parts of the brain. Overall, The Optic Chiasma of Teleosts provides a comprehensive analysis of this important structure and its inheritance patterns in fish.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
