Ensemble bien complet de ses cinq parties. References : DSB [I, 305-306 : "This taxonomically most important work assured Artedi the honor of being the father of the science of ichthyology.

Artedi is known as the "father of ichthyology" for this pioneering work in classifying the fishes into groups. The foundation of modern ichthyology. Artedi, who drowned in Amsterdam in 1735, is published here posthumously by Carl von Linné, who inherited the manuscripts of Artedi. The classification is based on an order, then a genus and a species. He thus distinguishes four orders of fish and one for cetaceans, 47 genera and 230 species. A very complete set of its five parts.
