appeared in London 1781. The »Essay on Corals», an abridged 

 transiatiou of »Corallia baltica», begins on page 457 and stops 

 on page 480, containing only the introduction, and a short 

 review of the genera Madrepora and Millepora without descrip- 

 tion of the species and no figures. 



6. 1787. Caroli a Linné Amoenitates Academicce , . . . 

 ediiio tertia curante J. C. I). Sclirehero, Erlangce 1787. This 

 is in fact the fourth edition, if that of Biwald is to be reckoned 

 as the third. The »Corallia baltica» is entirely reprinted on 

 pages 74 — 106, as it stånds in the Stockhohn edition of 1749, 

 with the important addition of the »Nomina trivialia» as they 

 are found in LiNN^us' later works; the arrangement of the figures 

 on the plate resembles that in the first edition. 



Stöver says^ that J. E. Gilibert also, in 1787—88, edited 

 the Amoen. Acad. in two volumes, but I have not succeeded in 

 finding that edition nor have I seen it mentioned anywhere eise. 

 May he not have confounded it with Gilibert's edition of 

 Systema plantarum. Europa, which was published in 1785? 



Excepting SCHREBER, none of all the editors or translators 

 of the Corallia baltica has made any use of the corrections or 

 additamenta to the first editions thereof, which could be found 

 in LiNN^us' Systema Naturae or Fauna Suecica. Consequently 

 there is no need to cite other editions than those of 1749 and 

 1787 in the list of synonyms given below 



Of LiNN.EUs' other works the foUowing also contain descrip- 

 tions or annotations concerning the fossil corals and must be 

 considered together with the original work.
