PRIMA EDIZIONE. A causa della relativa scarsità di letteratura sui pesci dell'epoca classica, Gesner ha basato il suo lavoro sulla ricerca contemporanea e sull'osservazione di prima mano. Di conseguenza, sebbene le specie siano descritte in ordine alfabetico, le descrizioni pongono molta enfasi sull'aspetto fisico delle specie e forniscono riferimenti a gruppi più ampi di pesci morfologicamente simili. Allo stesso modo, l’opera è la prima pubblicazione scientifica in cui le illustrazioni svolgono un ruolo fondamentale.

L'uso delle xilografie da parte di Gesner è visto come un importante contributo allo studio scientifico degli animali, esponendo i lettori a immagini di specie che potrebbero essere state precedentemente studiate solo da testi descrittivi. In effetti, la popolarità delle illustrazioni al momento della pubblicazione è resa evidente dal fatto che furono presto riunite in un'opera separata, le Icones animalium e Icones avium omnivm (Sp Coll Hunterian Aa1.2), pubblicate tra 1553 – 1560.

Primo stato della xilografia con ricca inchiostrazione e impressione molto forte. Tonificazione leggera e piccole macchie.
