Overview

Excerpt from The Canadian Naturalist and Quarterly Journal of Science, Vol. 10: With the Proceedings of the Natural History Society of Montreal It would thus appear that the Shell had a wide conical Siphuncle which, as it grew in height, it partitioned Off, with flattened cones within. The effect would be to give protection to whatever part of the body extended back into the siphuncle, to give great strength to the shell, and to form a double series of air chambers, that within the outer shell and that in the apex of the conical Siphuncle, by which great buoyancy would be secured.
