The title-page mentions this work to be the first instalment, but no subsequent instalments were published. From the entomological library of Jacques d'Aguilar, author of Histoire de l'entomologie (2006). Somewhat browned, not affecting the plates, otherwise in good condition. Binding very good.l Hagen I, p. 77; Horn & Schenkling 2093.
