 title-page) was dedicated to his late wife; and 

 only the first volume bears the date of the Chris- 

 tian era, 



'' Originally published and frequently repro- 

 duced in connection with Buffon's works, e.g., 

 Buffon, 1st ed. (1749-S4), vols. 39^3; Ist 12mo 

 ed. (1752-1805), vols. 7S-8S; Lac6p6de's 1st ed. 

 (1799-1802). 14 vols.; Lact^pede's 2d ed. (1817- 

 19), vols. 13-17; Lamouroux and Desmarest's 

 ed. (1824-32), suite — i.e., (Euvres du Comte do 

 Lac^pMe — vols. 5-11; Lecointe's ed. (1829- 

 34), about 25 vols; also republished in ' His- 

 toire Naturelle' in 1S55. The compilation as- 

 cribed to Sonnini de Manoncour (Charles Nicolas 

 Sigisbert) is also merely a slightly modified re- 

 print of the same work. 



" A work by an able man and eloquent writer, 

 but which, on account of undue confidence in 

 others, default of comparison of materials from 

 want thereof and otherwise, and carelessness 

 generally, is entirely unreliable. Many species 

 appear under several different names, and in 

 genera widely separated. The classification 

 adopted is a procrustean system of (1) sub- 

 classes. (2) divisions, and (3) orders. . . . Four- 

 teen hundred and sixty-three (1463) nominal 

 species were described." — T. N. Gill, Smithson.
