The Common Frog is a scientific work written by St. George Jackson Mivart and first published in 1874. The book is a comprehensive study of the anatomy, physiology, and behavior of the common frog, also known as Rana temporaria. Mivart's work is divided into three main sections: the external anatomy of the frog, the internal anatomy of the frog, and the frog's behavior and life cycle. In the first section, Mivart describes the physical characteristics of the frog, including its skin, limbs, and respiratory system. He also explores the frog's sensory organs, such as its eyes, ears, and olfactory system. The second section delves into the frog's internal anatomy, including its digestive, circulatory, and nervous systems. Mivart also examines the frog's reproductive organs and the process of metamorphosis from tadpole to adult frog. The final section of the book focuses on the behavior and life cycle of the common frog. Mivart discusses topics such as the frog's habitat, diet, and predators. He also explores the frog's mating rituals and the importance of vocalizations in communication. Throughout the book, Mivart provides detailed illustrations and diagrams to accompany his descriptions, making The Common Frog a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of amphibians.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
