A Latin verse treatise on aquatic animals by the physician François Boussuet, published in Lyon in 1558 as a companion to Guillaume Rondelet's fish histories, for naturalists and scholars. Its woodcuts show fish in profile, drawn with fine hatching and cross-hatching that models scales, fins and gill covers against a plain paper ground.
