"In 1826 he published his Grundriss der Krystallographie, in which he introduced the concept of a 'crystal series', that is, the aggregate of all crystal forms that can be developed from a basic form in accordance with Weiss's law of zones.... In this work also Naumann examined Mohs' 1822 suggestion that crystal systems might exist in which the crystallographic axes are not mutually perpendicular and successfully identified the present monoclinic system."
