Wanted: 'Obscure' 1889 Paper on Trilobite Eyes & The Fibonacci Series
Can anyone help me find the 'obscure' paper by JM Clarke that Niles Eldredge refers to on page 64 of "Time Frames"? A scan of the page is available here:
http://members.aol.com/jorolat/trilobite.html
In fact I would be grateful for any information regarding the appearance of the fibonacci series in the lens arrangement of trilobite eyes!
If you know the citation (or better still, have a copy) then please email me or post here.
NB This isn't the paper I'm looking for:
CLARKE, J. M. 1889. The structure and development of the visual area in the trilobite Phacops rana Green. Journal of Morphology, 2:253270.)
Finally, I emailed Niles Eldredge and he said "I've lost touch with it [the paper]--journal such as American Naturalist..". I don't have a subsciption to Jstor. Someone did a search of American Naturalist on my behalf but couldn't find anything ('sigh').
