Belon, Pierre (cont.)

It is listed in Lelong, Bib. Hist. France,
Nouvelle éd. 1:196, and is mentioned by Gibault, 
Jour. Soc. Nat. Hort. France (1905), p.
714, as a pioneer work on the subject of plant
introduction.  Clusius translated it into Latin, 
together with Belon's "Plurimarum singularium
& memorabilium rerum ... observationes", with
two editions, 1589 and 1605, which are much more
widely known and distributed than the original
French of 1558.

-----  Paris, G. Corrozet, 1558. xx, 80 ff. (Bib.
Nat. Paris; Dept. Agr.)

Title in Cat. Bib. Nat. 10:530 differs somewhat
from that of  Seguier, but it seems likely
that these editions are practically identical.
Titles same in Cavellat cop., Brit. Mus. and Corrozet 
cop. Dept. Agr.
