Annotations about 'Amphibia' and Pisces, from different Linnaeus pater's lectures.
- pp. 1-40: bound and sown in paper cover. Notes on 'Amphibia' with binomials and corresponding roughly to the order in Linné, Carl von. 1758. "Systema naturae". Stockholm (10th edition).
The rest is unbound. c. 1758.
- pp. 41-44: Notes on 'Amphibia serpentes' with binomials and corresponding roughly to the order in Linné, Carl von. 1758. "Systema naturae". Stockholm (10th edition). Possibly part of the preceding set of notes, but unbound and not paginated by Linnaeus. c. 1758.
- pp.43-74: Notes on 'Pisces' with no binomials and corresponding roughly to the order in Linné, Carl von. 1748. "Systema naturae". Stockholm (6th edition). Cetaceans are classified as fish. Post 1748.
- pp. 75-82: Notes on 'Pisces' with binomials and corresponding roughly to the order in Linné, Carl von. 1758. "Systema naturae". Stockholm (10th edition). Most probably belonging with the first set of lectures, as the paper and ink are similar. c. 1758.
