Richly illustrated with 224 plates with 700 species. Initially organized as a publication of 10 issues, the work ceased publication after issue number 7.
This work is rare in institutional libraries as the BnF catalogues only the first issue. The French catalogue CCF indicates that 2 copies are held by the Muséum d'histoire naturelle (Paris).
