Best.-Nr. 117432Stockholm Henrik A. Nordström 1821. 8:o. 2 151 1 s. Lätta lagerfläckar något större brun fläck i övre marginal 44-50.

Svensk översättning av inledningen ”Discourse préliminaire” som kom ut 1812 till Cuviers stora ”Recherches sur les ossement fossiles des quadrupèdes” Paris 1821.

Jonas Magnus Stjernstolpe 1777–1831 var en mycket flitig svensk översättare. unknown
