Marvels of pond-life : or, A year's microscopic recreations among the polyps, infusoria, rotifers, water-bears, and polyzoa
A popular microscopy handbook by Henry James Slack, published in London by Groombridge in 1861 for amateur naturalists working a pond sample through the year. Line drawings trace rotifers, polyps, water-bears and infusoria in outline with stippled interiors and fringes of cilia, offering designers isolated organic silhouettes, numbered figure captions, and repeating hair-like textures.
