There is no text to these sixteen plates beyond a somewhat full 

 description. They are all lettered "Hist. nat. Moscjuensis." 



The forty-four plates of fossils are also without text beyond the 

 full description of the plates themselves. For nomeiiclatorial 

 purposes this first edition naturally has priority. The first edition 

 seems to have been unknown to H. G. Broun and contains many 

 interesting names. 



The second edition (perhaps " issue " best describes it) was 

 published in 1837. The collation is as follows : — g T., Portrait of 

 Fischer, T.P. Oryctographie | du | Gouvernemeut de Moscou, | 

 publiee | par | Gotthelf Fischer-de-Waldheim. | Map | Moscou, j 

 de I'imprimerie d'Auguste Semen, | Imprimeur de Txicademie 

 Imperiale Medico-chirurgicale. ] 1830=l!537. | —XVII, 1-202, 

 Plates A-G (maps &c.), I. -LI. (fossils). 



In this issue the nomenclature has been often altered, seven 

 new plates of fossils have been added, and the sixteen plates of 

 recent animals and plants have been omitted. 



Fischer's 'Entom. Mosquensis,' according to Hagen (Bibl. Entom. 

 1862, p. 237), was in octavo form, andean hardly have bad anything 

 to do with the ' Oryctographie,' which is a folio with quarto 

 copper plates.
