Plate 37 from Sebas Thesauri, a meticulously detailed illustration showcasing the intricate organization of Seba's shell cabinet from Volume 3 of his comprehensive work "A Sebas Locupletissimi rerum naturalium thesauri accurata descriptio," published in 1758. This image offers a glimpse into the world of Seba's extensive collection of invertebrate mollusks, specifically shells. The patterns and textures of the shells are artfully arranged in the drawers, with some displaying pointed ends and others featuring elegant spirals.

The invertebrate mollusks, a diverse group of animals, are represented by a myriad of striped, spiral, and intricately patterned shells. This illustration not only serves as a testament to Seba's remarkable collection but also showcases the beauty and diversity of the natural world. With its meticulous attention to detail and scientific accuracy, Plate 37 remains an enduring record of Seba's remarkable achievements in the field of natural history.
