"Brilliant and prolific vertebrate anatomist, paleontologist, and geologist. Bitterly opposed to Lamarck's transmutation theories and Geoffroy's theory that all animals shared a single basic plan, arguing instead that animal life was divided into four embranchements sharing no true homologies, and that man (order "Bimana") was taxonomically distinct from the apes (order "Quadrumana"). Established the reality of extinction using mammalian fossils; argued for periodic revolutionary episodes in earth history that replaced whole suites of organisms."
