Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

(Excerpt from A Monograph of the Crag Mollusca, Vol. 2: Or...)
Excerpt from A Monograph of the Crag Mollusca, Vol. 2: Or Descriptions of Shells From the Middle and Upper Tertiaries of the East O England These marks, therefore, are of essential service to the Palaeontologist, as they afford the only indications of the form possessed by the animal inhabitant, thus im pressed upon the interior of the valves. It is however to be feared, that a perfectly strict reliance cannot always be placed upon the peculiar magnitude of this siphonal scar, even in specific determination, as a marked deviation from what might otherwise be considered its typical form may occasionally be detected, but it is in those species which are most subject to variation in the outward forms of the shell; as a general rule, this line, when visible, is of the greatest assistance, and at all times a good auxiliary character in the determination of a species. The length of the siphonal tubes, or the consequent indenture or sinuation of the mantle mark in the shell, points out a difference in the animal from those in which the sinus is wanting, or at least nearly so, where it indicates a mantle either Without or with very short siphons, giving fair grounds for generic separation; but occasionally, species are met with that are otherwise very closely allied, having a similar dentition, and bear the same general relationship in regard to the shell, although very unlike in the form of the mantle mark, such as Leda and Nucula, Cardium and Addend, Lacz'na and Luciuopsz's, and cannot, without violence to a natural arrangement, be removed to any distant position.

He was born on the 14th of February 1798.
He went to sea in 1811 as a midshipman in the East India Company's service, which he left, however, in 1826.
He then settled at Hasketon near Woodbridge, Suffolk. He devoted himself to a study of the mollusca of the Newer Tertiary (Crag) of Suffolk and Norfolk, and the Older Tertiary (Eocene) of the Hampshire basin.
On the latter subject he published A Monograph of the Eocene Bivalves of England (1861 - 1871), issued by the Palaeontographical Society.
He died at Martlesham, near Woodbridge, on the 26th of October 1880.

His son, Searles Valentine Wood (1830-1884), was for some years a solicitor at Woodbridge, but gave up the profession and devoted his energies to geology, studying especially the structure of the deposits of the crag and glacial drifts.
