Notes
General notes:
Jacquin travelled in tropical America (Caribbean and the Venezuelan coast) in the years 1755-1759. The drawings for this work were made by him in the field. In 1780-81 Jacquin published an augmented version of the work, with the plates all drawn by hand rather than engraved; for the most part the revised plates show either the same image, sometimes with details arranged differently on the page; in some instances the 1763 plates show only a part of the image issued in 1780-81 (e.g. branches with fewer leaves). It seems not to be known which version resembles the original drawings more closely. - In 1971 a facsimile edition was published in two volumes; see separate catalogue entry.
