Description
Insects.- Fallén (Carl Fredrik) Diperta Sueciæ, 2 vol. in 1, 45 dissertations, Silluf O. Bengt-Olof Landin bookplate, modern half morocco, gilt spine, [Evenhuis pp.253-262], 4to, Lunde, Litteris Berlingianis, 1814-25-[26].
⁂ Rare complete set.
Evenhuis in his 'Litterature Taxonomica Diptorum' pp. 253-262 gives an exact collation of the dissertations with the following note: "The works listed below constitute the complete works collectively referred to as Fallen's 'Diptera Sveciae'. They are essentially works written by Fallén and defended by students (much the same as Linnaeus' and Thunberg's dissertations). Authorship of new taxa found in these works is attributed to Fallén alone. The entire series was subsequently bound as a separate edition in 2 volumes".
The present dissertations contain all their original printed titles. Our set contains an extra printed title of the first volume with a wrong date (1814-1827).
