with the forms ejected in the tenth edition and the combination of all nnder the 

 Amphibia Nantes, which were subdivided into two groups distinguished by the 

 separated branchial chambers (Spiraculis compositis) or single apertures (Spiraculis 

 solitariis). 



477 nominal species of Fishes (including the Amphibia Nantes) were described, and 

 referred to 61 genera. The additional genera were Amia, Elops (both founded 

 for fishes sent by Dr. Garden from South Carolina), Cepola, and Teuthis. 



In conclusion, it may be said that the original editions recognized by Linn4 as 

 completely revised ones were theirs* (1735), the second (1740), the sixth (1748), the 

 tenth (1758), and the twelfth (1766-68). 



The first was reprinted at Halle, in 1740, and the reprint recognized as the third; 

 and again at Paris in 1830. 



The second was reprinted at Paris, in 1744 (with modifications), as the fourth 

 edition ; and at Halle, in 1747, and the reissue was subsequently recognized as the 

 fifth edition. 



The sixth edition was reissued at Leipzig, and subsequently known as the seventh ; 

 and closely followed in the edition of Leipzig, recognized as the ninth. 



The eighth edition did not contain the Animal Kingdom. 



The tenth edition was reproduced at Halle in 1760 (not recognized), and at Leipzig 

 in 1762, the last being acknowledged as the eleventh. 



The twelfth edition was reprinted at Vienna, in 1767-70, and entitled the thirteenth, 

 but is not esteemed as one of the regular current editions. 



The later thirteenth edition, in which Gmelin brought together descriptions of species 

 unrecognized by Linne" and unknown to him, is noticed under the editor's name 

 (1788).
