Although this work bears the same date (an XII) as Lacepede's Hist. nat. des Cetacees 

 (see 1804. LACI^PEDE), it is merely a slightly abridged version of that work, with here and 

 there slight additions. Although the text is mostly inclosed in marks of quotation, I foil to 

 find any acknowledgment of the source. The work is currently attributed, however, to Son- 

 nini. The arrangement of the matter, the number of species treated, their order of succes- 

 sion and nomenclature, are identical in the two works. [473.]
