	Etienne Geoffroy St. Hilaire
		Darwin himself cited both the elder Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire and his son Isidore (who had continued to develop some of his father's ideas) as persons who had anticipated his theory to a certain degree (Darwin, 1861).
		Geoffroy St. Hilaire has insisted strongly on the high importance of relative connexion in homologous organs: the parts may change to almost any extent in form and size, and yet they always remain connected together in the same order.
		Geoffroy enthusiastically adopted this claim as proof of the unity of plan shared by all animals; Cuvier could not reconcile it with the results of his careful anatomical research.

		Geoffroy clung to the archetype, arguing that vestigial organs, embryonic series, and the stunning diversity of vertebrates could be interpreted as evidence for a single underlying plan.
		The Geoffroy Collection is comprised of 0.75 linear feet of lecture notes and correspondence relating to Geoffroy's diverse interests in natural history, Egypt, comparative anatomy, analogies, paleontology, and embryology, and it is particularly rich for his studies of teratology.
		Made a canon in the church at the age of 15, Geoffroy was preparing himself for a clerical life when he was introduced to the study of natural history by the renowned agronomist, the Abbé de Tessier, and by the great anti-Linnean botanist Antoine de Jussieu, his isntructor at the Collège de Navarre.

	History of Science Society -- 1998 Annual Meeting Program Abstracts
		Among the diverse monstrosities described in Isidore Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire's encyclopedic Traité de tératologie (1832-1836) was a class of malformations the author dubbed Pseudencéphales, or "false-brained" formations.
		Geoffroy patterned his taxonomy of developmental deviations on a classification of cranial malformations originally published by his father in 1821, and subsequently reprinted in the latter's Philosophie anatomique des monstruosités humaines (1822).
		Although similar in many regards to the class of "brainless" or anencephalic formations, the Pseudencéphales were judged by Geoffroy to be a distinct category of monstrosity, chiefly on the weight of his conviction that the vascular tumor replacing the brain in such malformations was in fact a vestige of the foetal brain.

	Kevin Kelly -- Chapter 19: Postdarwinism
		In the early and mid-19th century a French father and son team, Etienne and Isidore Geoffroy Saint Hilaire, devised a classification scheme for natural monsters.
		Their taxonomy of mutants paralleled the Linnean system of natural species: every monstrosity was assigned a class, order, family, genus, and even species.
		Since neither mutation is a variation that offers reproductive advantage, since few of these freaks survive, natural selection cannot be selecting one over the other.
