From this work these are the deer including old world and new world species for instance the moose. Several species have the young faon and female biche much different from the male and often they are included on separate sheets. The following are included: le chevreuil Faone femelle; femelle; mâle; cerf-cochon biche; mâle; biche de la presqu'ile de Malaca; cerf-noir du Bengale ou hippélaphe; le cerf de Wallach et le cerf du Bengale each on a separate plate; l'axis femelle; mâle La biche de la Louisiane et le cerf a dagues de l'Amerique Septemtrionale each on a separate plate; Le cerf de Virginie also: "dans son plumage d'hyver; and the faon du cerf de Virginie probably listed in the work as faon du cerf de Louisiàne"; Le cerf commun also: biche et son faon; Le daim et son petite; variété blanche; daim fauve; daim variété noire; Le renne femelle; l'elan de l'Amerique septentrionale ou l'original also poile de hiver; mazame; biche aux pieds techetés ou biche des Mariannes; chevrotain de Java ou kanchil male et femelle each on a separate plate; cerf du Canada biche. All with text leaves except the last. Not included is the wapiti which was among the last plates issued. There is no cerf de la Louisianne pelage hiver called for in the indexes instead there is the unrecorded cerf de Virginie pelage hiver. Probably both are the same; the name in the plate caption being different from the one in the text. It is not clear which of the two is wrong as both are now regarded as the same species. All plates and text as issued without stamps annotations or other markings. All text leaves and all plates uncut untrimmed resulting in very big margins. Due to these large margins some edges a bit frayed or with minor tears. The plates are hardly spotted if at all a few are mildly toned; some text leaves are somewhat spotted but mainly in the margins. Generally this set is in a very good condition. Brunet II p. 1536; Nissen ZBI 1525; Casey Wood p. 354. unknown

Not bound as issued. = Rare part of a magnificent publication with fine large plates of mammals from all over the world. The authors Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire 1772-1844 and Fréderic Cuvier 1769-1832 were the leading authorities in mammalogy in the first half of the 19th century and the Histoire Naturelle des Mammifères is widely regarded as their magnum opus. This section contains the Australian marsupials - a very little-known group then. It includes "Le wumbat" wombat; "Kanguroo ou macrope géant" two plates one with the red kangaroo the other with the grey kangaroo; Kanguroo ou halmature thétis" probably a "wallaroo"; and "Phalanger de Cook" Australian ring-tailed possum.
