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. 



Aodon Lacepede, I, 297, 1798; type Squalus massasa Forskal, as re- 

 stricted by Jordan & Evermann. 

 A shark, perhaps imaginary, with no teeth and with long pectorals. The Latin 

 name Addon is used, as well as the French "les Aodons."

 LE Spheroide tubercule Lacepede.

here understood. 



* Of this work we have before us two reprints, neither with the original pag- 

 ination. This, however, we are able to give, through the kindness of Mr. Henry 

 W. Fowler of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, who has supplied 

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



In the original edition the author styles himself "Citoyen La Cepede."
