The generic names in Volume I, 1798, and Volume II, 1800, to page 

 160, are nearly all given in French vernacular and are therefore ineli- 

 gible. Scientific forms for most of these were supplied by Dumeril, 

 Zoologie Analytique, 1806, from which work the generic names in ques- 

 tion must be dated.

* Of this work we have hcfore us two reprints, neither with the oriRinal paR-

 us with a complete list of the genera and the pages on which they occur.
