X There is a new edition (1823), with a Scientific Index 

 by Mr. Dillwyn. 

 Lister was Physician to Queen Anne, and practised his 

 profession with great success till he died, in 1712. 

 His Historia Conchyliorum is an admirable work, 

 though devoid of any arrangement that can be useful 

 to the scientific Conchologist. The Plates, which 

 were executed from drawings by his Daughters, are 

 for the most part very accurate. The first edition 

 was published in London in 1685, folio. The copies, 

 which are rarely found complete, ought to contain 

 1057 Plates, on 468 leaves, independently of the 22 

 Plates in the Appendix. In the Oxford edition there 

 are 1059 plates of shells, besides the 22 anatomical 

 subjects ; also 6 pages of Lister's Notes and Obser- 

 vations, not to be found in the first edition, and two 

 very imperfect Indexes at the end of the volume.
