<p>In addition the various taxonomically oriented-disciplines such as mammalogy, herpetology, ornithology study mechanisms that are specific to those groups.</p>
<p> </p><h2>Systems of classification</h2><p><em>Main article:</em> Scientific classification</p><p>Morphography includes the systematic exploration and tabulation of the facts involved in the recognition of all the recent and extinct kinds of animals and their distribution in space and time. (1) The museum-makers of old days and their modern representatives the curators and describers of zoological collections, (2) early explorers and modern naturalist travellers and writers on zoo-geography, and (3) collectors of fossils and palaeontologists are the chief varieties of zoological workers coming under this heading. Gradually, since the time of Hunter and Cuvier, anatomical study has associated itself with the more superficial morphography until today no one considers a study of animal form of any value which does not include internal structure, histology and embryology in its scope.</p><p>The real dawn of zoology after the legendary period of the Middle Ages is connected with the name of an Englishman, Edward Edward Wotton, born at Oxford in 1492, who practised as a physician in London and died in 1555. He published a treatise <em>De differentiis animalium</em> at Paris in 1552. In many respects Wotton was simply an exponent of Aristotle, whose teaching, - with various fanciful additions, constituted the real basis of zoological knowledge throughout the Middle Ages. It was Wotton's merit that he rejected the legendary and fantastic accretions, and returned to Aristotle and the observation of nature.</p><p>The most ready means of noting the progress of zoology during the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries is to compare Aristotle's classificatory conceptions of successive naturalists with those which are to be found in the works of Caldon.</p><p> </p><h2>Notable zoologists</h2><ul> <li>Louis Agassiz (malacology, ichthyology) </li> <li>Aristotle </li> <li>Bonnaterre, Pierre-Joseph </li> <li>Archie Carr, (June 16, 1909-May 21, 1987) (Herpetology), esp. sea turtles </li> <li>Charles Darwin </li> <li>Richard Dawkins (ethology) </li> <li>Dian Fossey (primatology) </li> <li>Arthur David Hasler, (January 5, 1908-March 23, 2001) (limnology, ichthyology, salmon homing) </li> <li>Victor Hensen, (February 10, 1835-April 5, 1924) (planktology) </li> <li>Libbie Hyman (invertebrate zoology) </li> <li>William Kirby (father of entomology) </li> <li>Carolus Linnaeus (father of systematics) </li> <li>Konrad Lorenz (ethology) </li> <li>David W.
