Initially the accounts of batrachians from the Mission Scientifique were meant to be incorporated into the Reptiles volumes. Due to the death of Dumeril in 1870 and the fact that Bocourt was too busy completing the Reptiles volumes, Brocchi was given the task of writing the Batrachians volumes. Bocourt assisted by giving Brocchi all of his notes and color models for the batrachians. The Batrachian volume was given its own pagination and published as Section two of part Three of the Mission Scientifique. Eighteen of the 24 plates are chromolithographs, Mostly drawn by Gustave Arnoul. Five of the remaining six are lithographs, and one stippled engraving by Milne-Edwards is also included.

This copy is very good with little foxing (primarily limited to the title pages) and with bright text pages and plates. Sabin mentioned that only a few copies were issued with the plates colored by hand, and that "it is hardly necessary to add that they are greatly superior to the plain copies." This was originally published with herps and fishes together, bound in two volumes, one of the text, and one of the plates. Colored copies of the reptile, amphibian, and fishes volume are far more scarce than the bird or mammal volumes (for which 300 colored copies were issued), and only 50 copies were produced.

Hard Cover. 1870-1909. . Recherches Zoologiques. Troisieme Partie. 1st Section.Etudes sur les Reptiles. Imprimerie Nationale, Paris, France. Complete in two volumes. Volume 1 is the text with xiv, Map, and 1012pp; Volume 2 is of the plates with vi, and 99 plates (21 of which are in color) with plate descriptions. Quarto. Beautifully bound in new half leather morocco with marbled boards, spine with five raised bands and gold tooling, and two black labels with gold lettering. Light, marginal waterstain on upper margin of first three plates. Very good condition. When the French intervened in Mexico, they decided to send to the country a civilizing and scientific mission. M. F. Bocourt, illustrator and taxidermist at the Paris Museum, was the chosen naturalist. Because of dangerous and uncertain times in Mexico, his work was carried out in Guatemala and other parts of Central America. Bocourt remained in Central America until 1867. It was originally intended that this book would be a collaboration between A. Dumeril and Bocourt with Dumeril undertaking the descriptive part, Bocourt the illustrative. But Dumeril died in 1870, shortly after the publication of the first of 17 parts, and Bocourt proceeded as both author and illustrator until the time of his death in 1904. Mocquard was drafted to finish the work with L. Vaillant and F. Angel assisting with the final two parts. Thus, Dumeril and Bocourt are the authors of the first part, Bocourt of parts 2-15, and Mocquard of parts 16-17. The engraved plates are highly detailed and lifelike and rank among the best ever produced (Adler, 1997). All but the last few plates were drawn by Bocourt. The illustrations in the final part are of esser quality (by F. Angel), but this book ranks among the best examples of herpetological illustration. With the large number of species described and illustrated, it also ranks among the most important stematic books in herpetology. It is difficult to believe that this beautiful volume was completed over the 40+ years that elapsed between Bocourt's early collecting to the publication of the final section. This is compounded by the death of Dumeril shortly after the work began, and Bocourt's death prior to its completion. In all ways this is a truly magnificent work. Because the 17 parts were published over this time span, a complete volume is nearly impossible to find. Especially in this condition, it is one of the rarest and most difficult to find of all herpetology books.

Very nicely bound in ten volumes in maroon cloth with gold lettering on spine. Pages trimmed, text and plates very clean, virtually free of spotting or foxing normally found in this set or other volumes of this age. Stamp of former owner (Kraig Adler) on end pages of each volume. Erpetology Generale is considered to be the most complete systematic work on reptiles published to date. According to Adler (1989), Constant Dumeril was the greatest taxonomic herpetologist of his ra. Quote Adler… "Dumeril himself was responsible for the grand design and arrangement of genera - the first natural arrangement of genera ever undertaken for amphibians and reptiles - and thus one of the classical monuments of descriptive zoology." "Bibron's responsibility was the description of pecies….the result of which was "Erpetology Generale ou Histoire Naturalle Complete des Reptiles." Dumeril passed away in 1848, and C. Dumeril's son, Auguste Dumeril, assisted his father in completing the final two volumes. This is an exceedingly rare set of volumes of one of the most important Herpetological publications ever published. Unfortunately, the plates of volumes 5-7, 9 plus the portrait from the Atlas Volume are in photocopy, but another set in this overall condition would be very difficult to find.

This set is bound in older half leather (dark green with raised bands on spine, leather corners) and marbled boards. No ownership or other markings. Volumes 2 and 4 mostly clean, volumes 3 and 5 with minor to moderate foxing here and there on text pages. Volume 1 with moderate to heavy foxing to text and to some plates and damage to spine. Other bindings are mostly clean with some minor scuffing here and there. With the exception of volume 1, this is a very nice set. An exceedingly rare, complete set of these volumes, the second printing of Holbrook's monumental work, the first attempt to compile all that was known about the herpetology of the United States. Holbrook states in the preface of volume 1 that descriptions were made in "almost every instance from the living animal, and after a comparison of many individuals." For this publication, he "secured the assistance of so good an artist as Mr.J. Sera, an Italian by birth, but long resident in the United States, who has caught the character and attitude of the animals with singular felicity." For both printings of this work, Holbrook employed the talents of at least 17 artists. Although variable, the quality of the 147 handcolored plates in these five volumes is outstanding. Adler states that during the time these volumes were in print, Holbrook "continued to authorize new and better plates, which were freely substituted over the years …thus, rarely do two copies agree in all particulars." According to Adler, Holbrook is "Justly regarded as the Father of American Herpetology." .

Hard Cover. 1875-1897. .Volumes VI, IX, and X, IN: Grandidier, A., ed.; Histoire Physique, Naturelle et Politique de Madagascar. Paris. Imprimerie Nationale. Volume VI, Tome I, Texte This is the only text volume published on the mammals of Madagascar, and this set deals entirely with the lemurs. i-iv with 396pp. Volume IX, Tome IV, Atlas I. This volume contains title pages and plates 1-122. Complete. Volume X., Tome V., Atlas II. Contains title pages, and plates 122A-254D (31 of these apparently are missing Volume X, part 2; Tome VI., Atlas III. This volume contains title pages and plates 255-274. May be some missing plates in this atlas. This is a very nice set of the only volumes pertaining to mammals, entirely on the lemurs, included in Grandidier's exceptional "Histoire Physique, Naturelle et Politique de Madagascar." Volume I is the only text volume published but contains information on only some of the lemur species. The atlas volumes contain extraordinarily beautiful and intricately executed plates of lemurs in habitat and many of the musculature, skeletal, and organ systems of these animals. Plates are mostly on stock paper, thus the weight of this set is over 25 pounds! Text volume has the original cover with uncut pages, some tape on spine. Mostly very clean text. The condition of plates is mostly very clean, some with light foxing and spotting. One has onion paper stuck over it. It is difficult to determine just how complete these atlas volumes are. The set was originally published with some plates acknowledged as unpublished. Some plates are individual but listed as, for example, plate 254A, 254B, etc. All plate atlases contain title pages with loose plates, many with slightly different dimensions.
