Un volume in-4 (26 x 20,5 cm), cartonnage de l'éditeur, tranches rouges, pièces de titre et de tomaison grattés, caissons grattés (pour effacer toute trace de l'Ancien Régime), mors apparents, coins émoussés, premier plat partiellement détaché (tenu uniquement par le lacet inférieur).

Ex-libris contrecollé au 1er contreplat de Alexandre Brongniart, scientifique français connu principalement pour ses travaux de minéralogie. Avec Cuvier, il établit un principe de base de la cartographie géologique moderne. Ce supplément contient notamment l'étude détaillée de différents singes (orangs-outangs, sapajous, sagouins...), de chiens-mulets, de tigres... Certaines planches de squelette également présentes. On notera en particulier une planche étonnante, celle d'un foetus de gueunon (voir photo). Buffon est surtout célèbre pour son oeuvre majeure, "l'Histoire naturelle, générale et particulière, avec la description du Cabinet du Roi", en 36 volumes parus de 1749 à 1789, plus huit autres après sa mort, grâce à Lacépède. Il y a inclus tout le savoir de l'époque dans le domaine des sciences naturelles. Exemplaire du tome septième des suppléments bien complet. Bon état des planches et du texte, et malgré les défauts de la reliure, bon exemplaire de cette première édition.
