Hancock s (1977, p. 12) discussion of chronometry drew attention to Oppel s careful, precise rock-layer measurements and fossil collecting in establishing a method by which the record of irreversible evolution of life on earth could be documented. Hancock (1977, p. 12) pointed out that Oppel s complete work was published in the same year that Alfred Russell Wallace and Charles Robert Darwin read their joint paper to the Linnean Society of London, On the Tendency of Species to Form Varieties, and on the Perpetuation of Varieties and Species by Natural Means of Selection. Hancock (1977, p. 12) commented that Oppel himself remarked that the more accurately the fossils are examined and species defined, the greater the number of zonal divisions that could be recognized. ... 

In a muted reprise of Dollo s theme 70 years later, fossil lungfishes were featured in a presidential address to the Linnean Society of London, delivered by Errol White after a long career as Keeper of Paleontology at the British Museum (Natural History). With no reference to Dollo, and apparently with no inspiration from him. White nevertheless lamented (1966 8),... 

Soon after came the 1972 Symposium on Interrelationships of Fishes, organized for the Linnean Society of London by Humphry Greenwood, Roger Miles, and Colin Patterson, all of the British Museum (Natural History). All three had attended the Nobel Symposium of 1967. According to Patterson (1995 12),...
