The Vertebrate Skeleton
by Sidney H. (Sidney Hugh) Reynolds
About the author
Born in Brighton on December 18, 1867, Sidney Hugh Reynolds was an English geologist, paleontologist, and zoologist. He taught at the University of Bristol and became known both for his research and for his skill as a teacher.
For readers, he is especially associated with The Vertebrate Skeleton, a compact but influential guide to comparative anatomy that was first published in the late nineteenth century and continued to circulate in later editions. He also wrote on geology, including work connected with the Bristol district, showing the same practical, explanatory style.
Reynolds died on August 20, 1949, in Clifton, Bristol. A reliable portrait image was not clearly available from the pages I could confirm, so no profile image is included here.
