"Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, 'Ichthyology' to 'Independence'" by Various is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. This volume is part of a comprehensive encyclopedia that covers a wide range of topics, with this specific section focused on the study of ichthyology, which is the branch of zoology dedicated to the study of fish, as well as other subjects from ichthyophagi to various historical accounts. At the start of this entry on ichthyology, the text discusses the field's historical context, citing early contributions by figures such as Aristotle, who established foundational knowledge about fish anatomy and behaviors. The opening portion outlines the characteristics that define fish, such as their gills for breathing, body structure, and reproductive methods, while tracing the evolution of ichthyology through prominent authors and their works from ancient times to the beginning of modern classification. This initial exploration highlights the continuous advancement in the understanding of fishes, emphasizing significant contributors like Belon, Rondelet, and later figures such as Cuvier and Linnaeus, setting the stage for a deeper dive into the scientific exploration of fish in subsequent sections.
