Swammerdam, J.
Histoire Naturelle des Insectes traduite du Biblia Naturae de Jean Swammerdam.
1758 xl, 673 p., 1 vignette, 35 (of 36) folded engraved pls, 1 folded table, small 4to, contemporary full marbled calf, spine gilt. Extremities somewhat worn, joint weak. Waterstain in the upper margin of the first few pages (not affecting the text). Plate 22 (depicting caterpillar anatomy) is missing.Published as volume V in the series: Collection Académique, composée des mémoires, actes ou journaux des plus célèbres Académies & Sociétés Littéraires Étrangères.... The present volume contains the first French translation of Swammerdam's famous ''Biblia Naturae''. The Biblia Naturae is one of the finest collections of microscopical observations ever produced by one worker. The book is consulted by naturalists to this day, and some of the figures have never been excelled. Although most of the objects studied were insects (depicted on 25 plates), Molluscs were also well represented (depicted on 8 plates), and especially the anatomical research of Helix pomatia and Sepia officinalis are remarkable. A further 3 plates depict the anatomy and stages of the frog.
