Edition Notes
Notes on the plants contributed by Casparus Commelin.
Originally published in Latin and Dutch editions under titles: Metamorphosis insectorum Surinamensium = Ofte verandering der Surinaamsche insecten (Amsterdam, 1705).
A new edition, with 12 additional plates and corresponding text, 10 provided by the author's daughters from material left at her death, and 2 (nos. 71-72) by Albert Seba who also provided the accompanying text. The plates in this edition are counter-proofs, reversed as compared with those in the 1705 and other 1719 editions, and the names of the engravers are omitted (Pieter Sluyter, Joseph Mulder, Daniel Stoopendael). Also, as in the other 1719 editions, a frontispiece by Frederik Ottens has been added.
Published also in editions with text in Latin, Latin and Dutch, and Latin and French. Also, a different issue in Dutch is known, without a publisher's statement, and with some slight changes in the title.
Title vignette. Dedication with coat of arms.
Plates unnumbered, designated in the text as: De I. [-LXXII.] Afbeelding.
