Title: Catalogue of the Madreporarian Corals in the British Museum (Natural History) volume VII. A monograph of the Recent Meandroid Astraeidae.
Description: London, The Trustees of the British Museum, 1928. Large 4to. [iii], 288 pp.; 72 fine plates with explanary text leaves. Original blind-stamped cloth with gilt title on the spine. = Interesting most probably last published part of a huge catalogue of Madreporarian Corals. It has a rather independent character and is a comprehensive monograph of this group, dealing also for the first time with the soft parts as well as the skeletal structures of these corals. Some wear to spine ends, otherwise an excellent, clean and unmarked copy.
