phasmatodea.org | Olivier, 1792    Copyright © 2003-2004, cfmoxey  
[ to be completed 1 March 2004 ]

These pages are an HTML rendering of the Mantis entry in Olivier, 1792, Encyclopédie Méthodique. Histoire Naturelle. Insects. Tom. VII, pages 619-642. I have mimicked as closely as possible the layout of each page, including lineation, indentation, and font styles. Any errors within the text have been retained and not marked. I have changed the orthography by using modern fonts without ligatures or integrationlike s’s within words, I have removed the space inserted between the end of a word and the following comma, and I have not justified text lines.
This project has been delayed due to my experiments into having these pages display on all browsers.

Any errors in transcription are solely my responsibility.
