Since the great Lamarck established the idea of the vertebrate at the beginning of the nineteenth century (1801), and his Parisian colleague, Cuvier, shortly after
...wards recog- nized the vertebrates as one of his four chief animal groups, the natural unity of this ad- vanced section of the animal world has not been contested. In all the vertebrates, from the lowest fishes and amphibians up to the apes and man, we have the same type of struc- ture, the same characteristic disposition and relations of the chief organs ; and they differ materially from the corresponding features in all other animals.
