Page "Libbie Hyman" Paragraph 10

In addition to her major project, Hyman extensively revised A Laboratory Manual for Comparative Vertebrate Anatomy in 1942 into a textbook as well as laboratory manual ; she referred to it as her " bread and butter " for its income.

She wrote about 136 papers on physiology and systematics of the lower invertebrates and published technical papers on annelid and polyclad worms and on other invertebrates.

She commented in a letter: " The polyclads of Bermuda were so pretty that I could not resist collecting them and figuring out Verrill's mistakes " ( quoted in Schram, p. 126 ).

Addison Emery Verrill had been an earlier expert in invertebrate classification.
