Abbildungen merkwürdiger Thiere, nebst einer Beschreibung ihrer Lebensart
A German natural history picture book of 1798 by Johann Reinhold Forster and Georg Simon Klügel, published by Dreyßig, presenting strange animals with descriptions of their ways of life for a general readership. Its hand-coloured plates show numbered, labelled specimens such as a lizard, a snake, a fish and a bird arranged on a plain ground, a clear model for scientific specimen layouts and tidy numbered captions.
