" Couchyliologie Systematique," a sort of Genera Conchyliorum, where the 



genera are extremely numerous, and represented by wood cuts, executed by the 



author, in as exact a manner as can be done by that species of engraving.

 1808, 1810. 



He is also the author of the four first volumes of the " Histoire Naturelle des

 has inserted apocryphal figures. They merely contain the geueralia and the 

 Cephalopoda.
