Another version is available at http://www.georgeglazer.com/archives/prints/animals/seliglemur.html; it is too small for the accompanying text to be legible but appears to credit "J. S. Leitzner" as well as Edwards. The species is captioned as "Lemur catta Linn." (indicating it is probably later in date) and the number is given as XLI (41), not 92 as in the version shown here.George Edwards
