Description:Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of the Teratological Series: In the Museum of the Royal College of Surgeons of England "By the classification of any series of objects, is meant the actual or ideal arrangement together of those which are like, and the separation of those which are unlike; the purpose of this arrangement being to facilitate the operations of the mind in clearly conceiving and retaining in the memory the characters of the objects in question." In the animal and vegetable kingdoms there is a marvellous interconnexion of organisms, perhaps genetic in its origin, which enables us to classify them into groups based upon purely structural considerations. Such a classification has been well termed " morphological." Amongst malformations there is no such interconnexion. Parts of organisms which have no morphological relation with each other are affected by causes which are very different in their nature and working. In such cases we must not seek for a morphological classification; we have to deal with phenomena which may or may not be connected with or dependent on each other, and the only satisfactory method of arrangement must be physiological. The classification of malformations on these principles, to be entirely satisfactory, would require an intimate acquaintance with the laws of abnormal development, and the causes producing deviations from the normal standard.
