Publisher's Synopsis
On Some Fossil And Recent Lithothamnieae Of The Panama Canal Zone Part 2 is a scientific book written by Marshall A. Howe, first published in 1918. The book is a continuation of Howe's research on the Lithothamnieae, a group of marine algae commonly known as coralline red algae. This second part of the book focuses on the fossil and recent Lithothamnieae found in the Panama Canal Zone, a region located in Central America.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which discusses a different aspect of the Lithothamnieae. The first chapter provides an overview of the history of the Panama Canal Zone and the geological formations found in the area. The second chapter focuses on the fossil Lithothamnieae found in the region, including their morphology, taxonomy, and distribution. The third chapter discusses the recent Lithothamnieae found in the Panama Canal Zone, including their ecology, growth patterns, and reproductive strategies.Throughout the book, Howe provides detailed descriptions of the various species of Lithothamnieae found in the Panama Canal Zone, as well as illustrations and photographs to aid in their identification. He also discusses the significance of his findings in relation to the broader field of marine biology and the study of coral reefs.Overall, On Some Fossil And Recent Lithothamnieae Of The Panama Canal Zone Part 2 is a valuable resource for scientists and researchers interested in the study of marine algae and coral reefs, as well as the geological history of the Panama Canal Zone.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
