ABSTRACT:
Short history of the Gazola's collection of fossil fishes from the
Eocene of Monte Bolca (Italy) housed in the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris.
The history of Gazola's collection of fossil fishes from Monte Bolca (Italy)
is generally incompletely known as reference is only made to the requisitioningof this collection, in May 1797, by commissioners who accompanied the French
troops which occupied Verona.
However, the study of manuscript sources has
allowed to show that Giovanni Battista Gazola stayed in Paris for a long time
during the year 1803 and that, on the 10th of May (20 Floreal an 11), he wrote
a letter to the administrators of the french Museum national d'Histoire
naturelle, for proposing them to offer new specimens that could complete thepart of his collection which had been seized five years earlier.
