Paris,: Paul Klincksieck, 1892.. [iv], 51, [i] pp. Large 8vo. Original printed wrappers. With 48 coloured plates, preserved in the original illustrated half cloth portfolio (slightly discoloured and a slight stain; outer edges slightly rubbed). ¶ B.M. (N.H.), 786; Nissen 793; Stafleu/Cowan 2391; Davy de Virville, 210. Very accurate descriptions and illustrations of 108 species of algae with directions for collecting and preserving of algae.-- (Partly some slight foxing and or some slight dust soiling). Hariot was France foremost algologist of his time (a pupil of Bornet, who is considered the founder of scientific phycology in France) and his work has become quite scarce now.

As a matter of fact, the only other exemple I know is that lovely little Pflanzen-Atlas to Seb. Kneipp's…

(Elberfeld (now Wuppertal),: Sam. Lueas,, 1838.. [ii], 31, [i, blank]; [28, blank] pp. 8vo (13,5 x 22 cm.). Contemporary marbled boards, edges red. ¶ Very rare, only 5 copies in the WorldCat. Fuhlrott "Obtained a doctorate from Bonn (1830); became a science teacher at Elberfeld, subsequently vice-director of the Realschule. Won modest recognition as a naturalist. In 1856, he received fossilized bones found by quarry workers in Felfhofer cave of the Neander Valley; Fohlrott identified them as "Homo neanderthalensis", but reaction to his discovery was hostile, and extensive controversy ensued. It was not until after his death and the discovery of fossil men at Spy (Belgium), and Gibraltar that opposition to the notion of Neanderthal man was finally silenced"(DSB).
