    Duverney, Tyson, Collins, and many others. The third period includes the interval between 1686 and 1749; and although in that time Zootomy was comparatively neg- lected, on account of the exclusive attention devoted to human anatomy, yet much was gained by the labours of Caldesi, Valentini, Reaumur, Duverney, Haller, A. Monro, Trembley, Roesel, Meyer, Steller, and others. The fourth and most recent period, so abundant in the materials for Zootomical science, commencing with 1750, boasts the names of Daubenton, De Geer, F. Monro, Camper, Pallas, Lyonnet, Spallanzani, Hewson, Fontana, J. and W. Hunter, Gouan, O. F. Muller, Scarpa, Vicq. d’Azyr, Blumenbach, Leske, P. F. Meckel, Geoffroy, Block, Merrem, and many others. To whom we may add, of the present day, Cu- vier, Home, Cavolini, Carlisle, Rudolphi, J. F. Meckel, Treviranus, Oken, Tiedemann, Albers, Fischer, Rosenthal, Nitzsch, and others. We meet also with materials for the literary history of Comparative Anatomy in the larger works on the literature of Anatomy in general, particularly in A. V. Haller. Bibliotheca Anatomica.
