Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biology of the Sea-Shore While the ecological aspect of the sea-shore has attracted a great number of research workers, from the point of view of teaching it would not seem to have received an equivalent amount of attention. It cannot be doubted that if a student confines himself, when on the sea-shore, purely to collecting and labelling species he is not obtaining a tithe of the benefit that his visit is capable of affording him. Consequently in planning this work, one of our chief ambitions has been to stimulate a wider interest on the part of the student by depicting for him something of the wonderfully vigorous and many-sided nature of the struggle for existence between tide-marks, and by drawing his attention to some of the innumerable problems connected with shore animals which still await investigation. We have had no wish to treat our subject exhaustively. For the most part we have confined ourselves to those British species with which we have first-hand acquaintance. To have foregone, however, all mention of foreign and, in particular, of tropical forms, would be to have excluded phenomena of the very greatest interest to our theme. It frequently happens, for instance, that a habit or an associa tion which is only slightly developed on our own shores has been brought to a high degree of specialisation elsewhere, especially in warmer seas. Consequently, we have not hesitated to give cases of this kind as large a measure of our attention as space allowed. For analogous reasons, while our main concern is with species occurring between tide marks, we have not infrequently extended our survey to include forms which more properly belong to the waters beyond the Laminarian zone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sea Shore Let both, however, cast aside any predisposition to look upon the naturalist's employment as arduous and toilsome, and make up their minds to look enquiringly into the living world around them, and they will soon find that they are led onward from the study Of one Object to another, the employ ment becoming more and more fascinating as they proceed. Our aim in writing the following pages is to encourage the Observation Of the nature and life of_ the sea shore; to give such assistance to the beginner as will show him where the most interesting Objects are to be found, and how he should set to work to Obtain them. Practical hints are also furnished to enable the reader to successfully establish and maintain a salt-water aquarium for the Observation Of marine life at home, and to preserve various marine Objects for the purpose of forming a study-collection of the common objects Of the shore. To have given a detailed description of all such Objects would have been impossible in a work of this size, but a large number have been described and figured, and the broad principles Of the classification of marine animals and plants have been given such prominence that, it is hoped, even the younger readers will find but little difficulty in determining the approximate positions, in the scale of life, Of the various living things that come within their reach. Of the many illustrations, which must necessarily greatly assist the reader in understanding the structure of the selected types and in the identification Of the different species, a large number have been prepared especially for this work.

Little does the lounger on the sands, or the loiterer on the rock, think of the number less Objects on every side of him, full of interest and beauty, which he either totally disregards, or passes by with a careless and indifferent glance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Animal Life by the Sea-Shore This little book is intended to serve as a manual for the use of the amateur naturalist at the seaside, and the authors have aimed at brevity in their accounts of the various groups, in View of the class of readers for whom they are intended. Far from attempting anything in the way of an exhaustive or strictly scientific manual, they have only tried to provide those untrained in zoology with a means of identifying the principal of the innumerable forms of animal life which are likely to attract their attention when on the beach, or, better, on the rocks and beds of weeds uncovered by the great ebb tides which afford such grand opportunities in the western parts of the English Channel; and also of acquiring some notions concerning the often puzzling organs displayed by these creatures, their functions, as well as some of the most salient facts of their life-histories.
