Globigerina from Plate 77
From Introduction, Page vii: "The term Foraminifères was
originally employed [in 1826 - dcb] by d'Orbigny in the Tableau
méthodique de la classe des Céphalopodes, at a time when
the Foraminifera, or at least a considerable section of them, were
looked upon as microscopic Mollusca."
