Working at the National Museum of Natural History (France), Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle in Paris, it took Simon 11 years to complete, while working at the same time on devising a taxonomic scheme that embraced the known taxa. Simon described a total of 4,650 species, and as of 2013 about 3,790 species are still considered valid. The International Society of Arachnology offers a Simon Award recognising lifetime achievement. The Eocene fos ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
