Tommaso Maria Gabrini; direttore della Specola Vaticana dal 1800 fino alla morte, anni durante i quali fece osservazioni metereologiche due volte al giorno, seguì anche i lavori per il rifacimento della torre Gregoriana e si occupò di proteggere con un sistema di parafulmini la Basilica Vaticana. Insieme a G. Xuarez creò l'Orto Botanico Vaticano-Indico, pubblicando le Osservazioni Fitologiche (1789-92) che gli meritarono la stima dei botanici H.Ruiz e J.Pavon i quali diedero ad un genere della Famiglia delle Polemoniacee, piante tipiche degli habitat desertici dell'America, il suo nome (cfr. Descripciones y láminas de los nuevos géneros de plantas de la flora del Perú y Chile por Don Hipólito Ruiz y Don Joseph Pavon,.... Madrid 1794, Gilia p.25).

Legatura in pelle verde con nervi e titolo in oro al dorso. Seconda edizione di uno dei più antichi lavori di zoologia sistematica mai pubblicato in Inghilterra, il lavoro di Pennant si basava sull’osservazione di corrispondenti scientifici europei e americani, e sui suoi studi condotti su collezioni private e musei. Le numerose tavole illustrate includono, in particolare nel secondo volume, diversi animali estinti. L’opera era originariamente concepita come una ricognizione della zoologia del Nord America, ma fu poi ampliata con le descrizioni di fauna europea e asiatica al di sopra dei 60° di latitudine Nord. "The content of the volumes, one of the earliest works of systematic zoology published in Britain, is based on the writings of earlier zoologists, information obtained by Pennant from his scientific correspondents all over Europe and America, and his studies in private museums and collections. It is embellished with engravings of animals, birds, landscapes and artefacts. Volume 2 deals with land and water birds, including some, such as the passenger pigeon, which are now extinct." (Cambridge University Press, 2014) “The work, which must be regarded as the most prominent of Pennant’s works, was originally planned as a sketch of the zoology of North America, but was later enlarged with the addition of descriptions of the quadrupeds and birds of the parts of Europe and Asia lying north of latitude 60 degrees N” (Anker 397)
