Notes:
A work in quarto volumes with a title resembling "Mémoires de l'Amérique" is this one by Feuillée, which is not listed in Library Company's 1789 Catalogue. "Mémoires de l'Amérique" may have been the binder's title on Du Simitiere's set. If so, the fourth volume would have contained the plates and maps.

Journal des observations physiques, mathematiques et botaniques, faites par l'ordre du roy sur les côtes orientales de L'Amerique Méridionale, & dans les Indes Occidentales, depuis l'année 1707. jusques en 1712
