Férussac, A. E. J. P. J. F. d'Audebert de - Large plate of Helicidae (s.l.). Plate 25. Limaçons genre hélice (S.G. escargot).

Paris, de Langlois, 1819. Folio (36.4 x 27.4 cm). A lose sheet, finely engraved. Drawn by Bessa and Huet, engraved by Coutant and printed by de Langlois, this plate shows species of Helix, both "true" species of Helix (the edible escargots) as well as related genera and species that are similar to Helix sensu stricto. It originates from the work that was published between 1819 and 1851 by the Baron de Férussac and, later, by G. P. Deshayes. It is widely regarded as one of the best-illustrated shell books of the early to mid 19th century. Due to the long time it took to publish it is a very rare work and almost never found in a complete state. Even a small section is rare. Plate with wide margins and in a good condition except for some soiling at the margins.
