[In this edition, tho binomial system previously employed by him in tho work entitled Museum Tessinianum 

 (I75:t), was extended in its application to all the kingdoms of nature; tho Artodian classification of fishes, 

 ndopted in the earlier editions, was superseded by the familiar Linmean system, and tho cetaceans were for tho 

 first time eliminated Iron) the class of fishes and grouped with the viviparous quadrupeds under the new class 

 name Hammalia, This edition was reproduced at Halle (Halco Magdobvrgicie, typis et svmptibus Io. lac. Cvrt. 

 1760), in an exact reprint (Pr.ffatvs est Ioannes Ioachimvs Lungivs), in 17G0, but has not been acknowledged as 

 one of the so-called editions. The recognized 11th edition was published at Loipzig in 1762, and is also a reprint 

 of the 10th, but waa condemned by Linne (" Furtitn prodiit vitiosa. Nil additum ").]
