Monographie de la famille des eucnémides.
1870 [1871-1875] 905 p., 42 fine plates, paperbound (original printed covers). An enormous standard work on the false click beetles, Eucnemidae, by Vicomte (Viscount) Victor Henry Achard de Bonvouloir (1839-1914). Very well illustrated with fine illustrations and with the inclusion of numerous new species. It was published in parts as supplement to the Annales de Société Entomologique de France, but apparently complete copies were published separately (like this one). Uncut. The bookblock is far to heavy for the binding, and therefore the spine is split in two places, Two repaired tiny tears in title-page and first page, one plate with some very light foxing, otherwise a good clean copy with bright plates. Horn-Schenkling II(1) p. 324.
