A 1796 printing with significantly extended text is held at the Netherlands Entomological Society. The NES copy pagination is as above but continues as follows: KK-UU, WW-ZZ, AAA-III, KKK-MMM with the final leaf without designation. According to a previously issued bookseller's catalogue description this is the Sir Thomas Phillipps (1792-1872) copy with his manuscript notation on the title page in pencil "Entomology or insects with Zoology" at the top margin. Small tear to the title page near the gutter. Protected in a clamshell enclosure. Height = 196mm. First edition.…
