SUMMARY. — Biogeography is the study of the distribution of living creatures on the surface of the earth according to their conditions of life. Paleontologists "resuscitate" the creatures of the past, following Cuvier's phrase; they also frequently try to reconstitute their life environment: thus they are biogeographers. From Cuvier and Lamarck to Edouard Lartet and Omalius d'Halloy the major French paleontologists of the nineteenth century have wondered about the conditions of life of the creatures of the past they were discovering. Whether creationist or transformist their reasoning about such environments is the same. They begin with the relations they observe between the living creatures of today and their environment. Relying on the si...
