Considérations générales sur la classe des insectes
Considérations générales sur la classe des insectes is an 1823 French natural history treatise by entomologist André-Marie-Constant Duméril, published in Paris by F. G. Levrault for students of zoology. Its plates are engraved, plain-line studies of beetles and other insects arranged in numbered grids with Latin and French labels, showing clear outlines, segmented bodies, antennae and legs that a designer could use as precise, systematic specimen drawings.
