1. Although the quinary system was not widely taken up, especially outside Britain, it was not dismissed out of hand as a figment of MacLeay's and Swainson's imaginations.
2. The most striking expression of this approach is the circular or quinary system proposed by the entomologist William Sharpe MacLeay (1792-;1865) in 1819.
3. The circular or quinary system of Swainson interested some of the more speculative minds of the next generation, including Huxley, A. R. Wallace (who annotated his copy of Swainson on the geographical distribution of animals), and Darwin (who had copies made of MacLeay's writings in order to criticize them).
4. Somewhat paradoxically, Chambers also included a chapter on MacLeay's circular or quinary system of classification, since this indicated that the whole animal kingdom was the product of a coherent, rational plan.
