Issued in ten parts, of twenty plates each, 1730-43; and an appendix of 

 twenty plates, 1748. The plates are numbered 1-100 in each volume, and 

 1-20 in the appendix. Each plate, as a rule, illustrated one animal and one 

 plant, and descriptive text accompanied each object figured ; these include 

 about sixty-five Bahama plants. 



A second issue in 1754, "revised" by George Edwards, librarian to the 

 Royal College of Physicians, is a mere reprint, with the addition of a sheet 

 at the end of each volume giving the Linnaean names of the animals and 

 plants in the work. 



A third issue, in 1771, differs from the preceding only in the resetting of 

 the title-page and preface, and the numbering of the pages and plates of the 

 appendix consecutively with those of the second volume. 



The London issues all had the text in both English and French, in parallel 

 columns. There was another edition (Niirnberg, 1750), with text in Latin 

 and German, in parallel columns; this contained a few additional plates, not 

 in Catesby 's work. 



The Bradley Bibliography mentions also a German translation by Huth 



(Niirnberg, 1755), and a Dutch translation by Houttuyn in nine volumes 



(Amsterdam, 1772-81), but both are indicated as not seen by the compiler.
