| Abstract/Notes | Trilobites in common with all other Arthropods shed their more or less rigid external covering or exoskeleton periodically. To accomplish this ecdysis it is necessary for this covering to split somewhere; and it is highly probable that the facial suture was the line along which such splitting took place. There seems, however, to be a tendency to assume that all lines which served this purpose are homologous. This has introduced unnecessary difficulties into the study of Trilobite classification. The object of this paper is to do something towards the elimination of this source of error. |
