Bibliographic references to works pertaining to the taxonomy of Coleoptera published between 1758 and 1900 in the non-periodical literature are listed. Each reference includes the full name of the author, the year or range of years of the publication, the title in full, the publisher and place of publication, the pagination with the number of plates, and the size of the work. This information is followed by the date of publication found in the work itself, the dates found from external sources, and the libraries consulted for the work. Overall, more than 990 works published by 622 primary authors are listed. For each of these authors, a biographic notice (if information was available) is given along with the references consulted.
Coleoptera , beetles, literature, dates of publication, biographies
One of the fundamental principles of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (hereafter called “Code”) is the Principle of Priority (Article 23.1). The valid name of a taxon is the oldest available name applied to it, unless that name has been invalidated or another name is given precedence by a provision of the Code or by a ruling of the International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature (herein “the Commission”). Although considered of trivial importance by some zoologists, dates of publication of works that contain new scientific names are important in establishing priority.
The scope of this work focuses mainly on determining dates of publication, as precisely as possible, of works, such as books, pamphlets, dissertations, catalogues, dictionaries and school programs, relating to the taxonomy and nomenclature of Coleoptera from 1 January 1758, the starting date of zoological nomenclature (

The search for publication dates through these journals was done mainly using Google Books. This process has its limitations. For example, some pages are poorly scanned and unreadable, others are simply missing, and sometimes whole issues of the journal are missing. Nevertheless, this digital database has many rare or difficult-to-find journals useful for dating books.

Two subsequent editions were published in London: one on 28 May 1838 (title page), under the title “Natural history of the insects of China: a new edition with additional observations &c., by J. O. Westwood. The figures drawn from specimens of the insects by E. Donovan” [BHL], the other in 1842 under the title “Natural history of the insects of China, containing upwards of two hundred and twenty figures and descriptions, by E. Donovan. A new edition brought down to the present state of the science, with systematic characters of each species, synonyms, indexes, and other additional matter, by J. O. Westwood” [BHL, USNM]. A German translation by J.G. Gruber was published in Leipzig, in parts in 1802, under the title “E. Donovan’s Natur-Geschichte der Chinesischen Insekten. Enthaltend gegen hundert neue, besondere und schöne Spezies nach der Natur gezeichnet, und genau Kolorirt, auf den Pflanzen, worauf sie gewöhnlich leben, nebst Beschreibung nach Linnés Ordnung, mit Beziehung auf Fabricius und andere” (n.v.).
Donovan never set foot in China. He obtained most of the information from Sir George Stainton (Earl Macartney) of the Embassy to China, who travelled extensively in China and made collections and observations on natural history, which he conveyed to naturalists in England.
1800–1804. An epitome of the natural history of the insects of India, and the islands in the Indian seas: comprising upwards of two hundred and fifty figures and descriptions of the most singular and beautiful species, selected chiefly from those recently discovered, and which have not appeared in the works of any preceding author. The figures are accurately drawn, engraved, and coloured, from specimens of the insects; the descriptions are arranged according to the system of Linnaeus; with references to the writings of Fabricius, and other systematic authors.

[1 June 1804]: Pausus denticornis; Pausus thoracicus; – fichtelii; – pilicornis.
Only the four species illustrated on the plate dated 1 June 1804 are new to science.
A second edition of this book was published in 1842, in London, under the title “Natural history of the insects of India, containing upwards of two hundred and twenty figures and descriptions, by E. Donovan. A new edition, brought down to the present state of the science, with systematic characters of each species, synonyms, indexes, and other additional matter, by J. O. Westwood” [CMLE]. A facsimile of the second edition was published in Delhi in 1985. The original edition was limited to 250 copies.
1805. An epitome of the natural history of the insects of New Holland, New Zealand, New Guinea, Otaheite, and other islands in the Indian, Southern, and Pacific oceans: including the figures and descriptions of one hundred and fifty-three species of the more splendid, beautiful, and interesting insects, hitherto discovered in those countries, and which for the most part have not appeared in the works of any preceding author. The figures are correctly delineated from specimens of the insects; and with the descriptions are arranged according to the Linnaean system, with reference to the writings of Fabricius and other entomologists.

There is no author listed on the title page but the second page reads “Museum-Demidoff. Mis en ordre systématique et décrit par G. Fischer. Tome troisième. Végètaux et animaux. Avec 6 planches.” The Coleoptera are on pages 37–49, 53–73, 98–101 and the new species described are Melolontha macrotarsa (p. 41), M. serrata (p. 41), Curculio erythrophthalmus (p. 42), C. tuberculatus (p. 42), C. caesius (p. 43), Lamia cincta (p. 44), Erotylus oblongo-guttatus (p. 44) and Cassida cayennensis (p. 49). Some of these species are dated 1809 (e.g., Sherborn in his Index Animalium) since Fischer von Waldheim redescribed them in the second volume of the Mémoires de la Société Impériale des Naturalistes de Moscou.
Despite the date on the title page, this book must have been published in 1808 considering the date of the preface. The entire series consists of three volumes, 1806–1808.

Authorship of the new species in Kollar and Redtenbacher’s contribution should be credited to both authors since there is nothing in the contents of Hügel’s work that would indicate that one or the other is responsible for the content of each order. However, the descriptions of eight new species of beetles, Sternocera dasypleuros (p. 504), Agrilus caschmirensis (p. 505), Lacon brachychaetus (p. 506), Ludius caschmirensis (p. 507), Cardiophorus vicinus (p. 507), C. consentaneus (p. 508), Onitis castaneus (p. 517), O. himaleyicus (p. 518), have the name “Kollar” listed at the end. These species should be credited to Kollar alone.

Budapest. 213 pp. (4to) [DP: 1896 (title page; preliminaries dated 1 March 1897), January 1899 (Nat Nov)] (n.v. except title page)
This work is usually cited as published in 1896 or 1897; the title page is dated 1896 but the preliminaries 1 March 1897. However, some clues suggest that the book was issued only in 1898. The Naturae Novitates recorded the work in January 1899 listing it as “Budapest 1896 (1898)” which seems to indicate that the title page is dated 1896 but that the work was published in 1898.
This work was reissued in 1900 as part of Arthropoda volume of the Fauna Regni Hungariae [GB].

Although the dates of publication of the livraisons are relatively well known, very little information is available about the content of each livraison. In the introduction of the first volume, the authors reported that livraison 3 (published in 1835) deals with the carabid genera Psilocera, Eurydera, Nycteis, Eunostus, livraisons 8–11 (published in 1836) with the genus Clytus, and the remaining ones (livr. 1–2, 4–7, 12–42) with the buprestides. I also found on the Internet that the first livraison contains the genera Sternocera (12 pp.) and Julodis (20 pp.). Table

The monography was reissued under the title “Histoire naturelle et iconographie des insectes coléoptères, par H. Gory. Monographie des Clytus. Texte et planches, tome III” by P. Duménil, Paris, in 1841 [CNC, GB]. Due to an error by the printer, the name of Laporte was left out on the title page and so a second title page was issued later with the difference that “par H. Gory” was changed to “par H. Gory et F.-L. de La Porte, Comte de Castelnau.” In the first printing, the author order was Laporte and Gory.

As stated on page 38, Latreille was responsible for the generalities and systematics, while Dejean was responsible for the descriptions of the species. Two new genera were described in this work, Tricondyla and Calleida, and they should be credited to Latreille. Sixteen new species were described and are credited to Dejean. In addition, six new species were made available by illustrations on the plates: Therates caerulea (pl. 1, fig. 2), Therates spinipennis (pl. 1, fig. 3), Collyris major (pl. 2, fig. 4), Graphipterus minutus (pl. 6, fig. 4), Galerita unicolor (pl. 6, fig. 6), Cordistes maculatus (pl. 7, fig. 5).

The account of the voyage was published in four volumes, 1823–1827, and one atlas. It was reprinted by Cregg International Publishers, 1972, and by LTR-Verlag, 1982. The new Coleoptera described in Latreille’s contribution are: Scarites heros (p. 274), Elater notodonta (p. 275), Buprestis cailliaudi (p. 277), Ateuchus aegyptiorum (p. 279), Gymnopleurus bicolor (p. 281), Melolontha pallidula (p. 284), Cantharis aethiops (p. 286) and Mylabris trigrinipennis (p. 286). The title page of the atlas is dated 1823 but there are no names associated with figure 58, just numbers.
This voyage was the last of the French explorer Frédéric Cailliaud [1787–1869].

The work includes the descriptions of 21 Coccinella species in footnotes on pages 8–11, all of them illustrated on the sole plate. The descriptions are linked to a Latin sentence which reads “Habemus igitur coccionellam lividam a), trilineatam b), variabilem c), oblongam d), gemellam e), conglomeratam e), reppensem f), campestrem g), fasciatam h), tigrinam i), punctis duodecim k), quatuordecim l), sedecim m), novem decim n), viginti o), viginti quatuor p), et innumeris q), …decem et innumeris r), quatuordecim s), quindecim t), viginti v) ornatas guttis.” These descriptors seem to refer to scientific names of species already known, i.e. livida, trilineata, variabilis, oblonga, gemella, conglomerata, reppensis, campestris, fasciata, tigrina, duodecimpunctata, quatuordecimpunctata, sedecimpunctata, novemdecimpunctata, vigintipunctata, vigintiquatuorpunctata, quatuordecimguttata, quindecimguttata, and vigintiguttata. Sherborn recorded three of Linck’s names in his Index Animalium (online version): gemella, innumeris punctata, and oblonga. According to Miguel A. Alonso-Zarazaga (personal communication) the descriptors are not scientific names and the pamphlet is doubtfully binominal.

The “Amoenitates academicae” [BHL] is a collection of 150 dissertations published in seven volumes, 1749–1769. The dissertations were written by Linnaeus and defended by his pupils. Several printings of this work were issued. A subsequent edition in ten volumes, 1785–1790, by J.C.D. Schreber in Erlangen [GB], contains the original dissertations (volumes 1–7) and 36 additional dissertations (volumes 8 and 9).

This book is a German translation of Linnaeus “Öländska och Gothländska resa på riksens högloflige ständers befallning förrättad åhr 1741. Med anmärkningar uti oeconomien, natural-historien, antiquiteter &c. med åtskillige Figurer” published in 1745 at Stockholm and Uppsala [GDZ].
Sherborn, in his Index Animalium, listed several species of insects being described for the first time in this translation, including one beetle, Carabus niger (p. 109). However, it seems that Linnaeus simply described the color of the Carabus and did not propose a specific name. This is supported by the fact that the species is listed in the index as “Carabus niger, elytris viridibus &c [p. 3 of the “zweytes Register”]” while the other species are listed with the generic and specific names only. In addition, Carabus niger is not included in Linnaeus’ 1758 Systema Naturae while all other beetle species described in the original edition of 1745 were also described in 1758.

Despite that the title page is dated 1808, these plates were issued from 1795 to 1808.
Tome 5 was supposed to include all pages of tomes 5 and 6 but because of the size it was divided in two volumes but the signature at the bottom of the pages of tome 6 bears “Coléoptères. Tome V”. On page 1101, the publisher reported that the entire work consists of 3,162 pages and 363 plates issued in 30 livraisons. Although the plates were issued at the same time as the text, he suggested to bind them separately in two volumes, which form tomes septième and huitième.

The author listed on page 25 is [Charles] Lallemant but in a footnote, link to Brachinidae, on page 37 Lallemant stated “M.L. Reiche… qui, depuis longtemps, s’occupait de rédiger un catalogue des Coléoptères décrits de l’Algérie, vient de réunir son travail au mien, de sorte qu’à partir de ce moment, notre collaboration est commune” [M.L. Reiche who, for a long time, was occupied in writing a catalogue of the Coleoptera described from Algeria, has combined his work to mine, so that from this time our collaboration is shared]. On page 139 the authors listed are Lallemant and Reiche. The new species described, Brachinus lethierryi (page 39), is credited to Reiche alone in the text.

The entire series consists of five volumes, all dated 1826 on their title pages. Considering that the Bibliographie de la France recorded volumes 3 and 5 in September 1827, these volumes were likely issued that year. Volumes 1 and 4 were recorded in the same journal on 8 November 1826. The work came with black and white or colored plates.
The fifth volume of the series includes a list of the insects of the Maritime Alps (pp. 187–257). The Coleoptera are on pages 188–209 where the following new species are described: Gyrinus splendens “L[each] et R[isso]” (p. 191), Meloe marginatus “(N.)” (p. 201), Timarcha affinis “Leach, Risso” (p. 206) and Galeruca desmaresti “L[each] et R[isso]” (p. 207).

This work treats 11 species of insects, including eight species of beetles. One of them is listed as “Bostrichus abietiperda, mihi” (p. 19).

The first volume contains papers by nine authors, but most of them are by Thomson himself. His papers are mainly descriptions of new genera and species, but there is also an essay on Aristotle’s entomology and a long reply to Guérin-Méneville’s accusation of plagiarism (published in Revue et Magazin de Zoologie (2) 9: 565–581) by Thomson. The second volume is devoted to an account of an expedition to Gabon in 1856 and 1857, undertaken by Deyrolle under the auspices of Count Mniszech and Thomson, and descriptions of the insects and other invertebrates collected there. The Coleoptera are on pages 29–256 and many new taxa are described by Thomson (pp. 29–239); the remaining pages (240–256) constitute a “Supplément aux Coléoptères” written by Louis Alexandre August Chevrolat where one new genus and several new species are described.

This encyclopaedia was published under the editorship of Abraham Rees [1743–1825]. The entries are not signed but those on entomology were written by Edward Donovan as indicated in the preface (p. v). The pages, except for the preface, are unnumbered. The work was issued in 85 parts, 79 of text and six of plates (
Dates of publication were not provided with the original parts. Those given in the table are extracted from an article in the Philosophical Magazine (
In addition to the 39 volumes of text, six volumes of plates were published. These latter six volumes contain plates issued with the text parts plus the plates of last six parts (
An American edition (n.v.) of Rees’s encyclopaedia was published in Philadelphia in 47 volumes, 1810–1824 (

The Deutsche Encyclopädie was left unfinished after 23 volumes of text and one volume of plates, published between 1778 and 1807. It was first published under the direction of Ludwig Julius Friedrich Höpfner, Christoph Ludwig Nebel, Johann Ludwig Friederich Diez, Andreas Böhm, Erich Christian Klevesahl and Henrich Martin Gottfried Köster, all professors in Giessen. Many entries pertain to Coleoptera, some extremely detailed; that for “Käfer” span 68 pages. The entries are signed with numbers and the authors are identified in the second unnumbered page at the beginning of volume 15. The entry for “Käfer” was written by Ludwig Gottlieb Scriba [q.v.].

Jean Baptiste Geneviève Marcellin Baron de Bory de Saint-Vincent [1778–1846] was the editor of this dictionary. The authors responsible for the Coleoptera entries are Audoin (“AUD.”) and Guérin-Méneville (“G.”). The atlas contains 140 plates but only one (pl. 5 of the seventh livraison) depicts beetles. Eight species are figured: “Buprestis amaena Kirby” (Fig. 1); “Buprestis guerini Dejean” (Fig. 2); “Lamia formosa Olivier” (Fig. 3); “Brentus latirostris Dejean” (Fig. 4); “Saperda IX guttata Dejean” (Fig. 5); “Monochamus lateralis Dejean” (Fig. 6); “Cassida zebra Dejean” (Fig. 7); “Galleruca albicornis Wiedemann” (Fig. 8). Some of these species were first made available from the illustrations. Authorship should be attributed to the author of the respective generic entry in the dictionary: Buprestis (Audinet-Serville); Lamia (Guérin-Méneville); Brentus (Audinet-Serville); Saperda (Guérin-Méneville); Monochamus (Guérin-Méneville); Cassida (Audinet-Serville); Galeruca (Guérin-Méneville).
An Italian translation in 17 volumes was published in Venezia, 1831–1843, under the title “Dizionario classico di storia naturale….” [GB].

Pierre Auguste Joseph Drapiez [1778–1856] was the editor of this dictionary. Several authors, including Audouin, Duméril and Latreille, contributed to the entomological entries but none of them are signed. Therefore, authorship is to be attributed to Drapiez as editor. Type species designations are given for many genera. The dating of the plates, issued in 48 livraisons and bound in a separate volume, is desired. The Coleoptera are on plates 110–121. Except for plate 111, all names on the plates are in vernacular form; the scientific names are listed in the explanation sheets of the plates (pp. 1–13).
This dictionary was reissued in 1853 by the same publisher under the title “Les trois règnes de la nature. Dictionnaire classique des sciences naturelles, présentant la définition, l’analyse et l’histoire de tous les êtres qui composent les trois règnes, leur application générale aux arts, à l’agriculture, à la médecine, à l’économie domestique, etc.; résumant les travaux de Buffon, Daubenton, Lacépède, Cuvier, de Jussieu, etc., etc. Augmenté des nombreuses découvertes acquises depuis la publication de ces ouvrages.

Although not specified in the publication, Nicolas Marie Thérèse Jolyclerc [1746–1817] was the editor of this dictionary (
The dictionary was reissued in 1822 by Samson fils in Paris under the title “Nouveau dictionnaire raisonné et abrégé d’histoire naturelle, contenant une description claire et précise de tous les produits de la nature, animaux, végétaux, minéraux, etc., leurs diverses espèces, leurs mœurs particulières, leurs propriétés, leur conformation, les lieux où on les trouve, etc., etc. : d’après MM. de Lacepède, pour les quadrupèdes et les poissons ; de Buffon, pour les oiseaux ; Linné, de Jussieu et Wildenow, pour la botanique ; de Lamarck et Latreille, pour les insectes ; Hauy, pour la minéralogie et la cristallographie, etc. Enfin, pour les observations et les recherches dans toutes les parties de cette science, d’après les ouvrages les plus célèbres, et notamment ceux de Descartes, Newton, Delalande, Delaplace, Daubanton, Fabricius, Chaptal, de Fourcroy, Lavoisier, Sage, Werner, Lamétherie et autres : dans lequel se trouve, en outre, une synonymie beaucoup plus complèteque dans aucuns des dictionnaires qui ont paru jusqu’à ce jour, classée, ainsi que l’explication des termes et expressions techniques d’histoire naturelle, à leur ordre alphabétique.

The two volumes contain the same number of pages except that the extra page at the end of each volume is missing suggesting that this edition is simply a reissue of the first one with the typographical errors corrected.

An Italian translation of this dictionary was published in Firenze in 22 volumes, 1830–1851, under the title “Dizionario delle scienze naturali nel quale si tratta metodicamente dei differenti esseri della natura, considerati o in loro stessi, secondo lo stato attuale delle nostre cognizioni, o relativamente all’utilità che ne può risultare per la medicina, l’agricoltura, il commercio, e le arti. Accompagnato da une biografia de’pui’ celebri naturalisti. Opera utile ai medici, agli agricoltori, ai mercanti, agli artisti, ai manifattori, e a tutti coloro, che desiderano conoscere le produzioni della natura, i loro caratteri generici e specifici, il loro luogo natale, le loro proprieta, ed usi. Redatta da vari professori del Giardino del Re, e delle principali scuole di Parigi. Prima traduzione dal francese con aggiunte e correzioni” [GB].

The first 18 volumes of this encyclopedia were published under the direction of Jean Baptiste Glaire [1798–1879] and viscount Joseph-Alexis Walsh [1782–1860], the three supplements under Joseph Chantrel [1818–1884] and abbot Jean-Baptiste-Siffroy Orse [1810–1874].
The title of this work varied throughout its publication. The one reported here is for the first printing of the first volume. This volume was also issued with the title page dated 1840 and reading “Encyclopédie catholique, répertoire universel et raisonné des sciences, des lettres, des arts et des métiers, formant une bibliothèque universelle, avec la biographie des hommes célèbres; ornée de plus de 3000 gravures dans le texte et renfermant le résumé de plus de dix mille ouvrages ; publiée avec la collaboration des hommes les plus éminents dans les sciences, les lettres, les arts, etc., sous la direction, collaboration et révision de M. l’Abbé Glaire, de M. le Vte Walsh, et d’un comité d’orthodoxie” [GB]. The three supplements were issued by the same publisher under the title “Supplément a l’Encyclopédie catholique publié sous la direction de M. Chantrel et de M. l’Abbé Orse avec la collaboration d’hommes spéciaux dans les lettres, les sciences et les arts, contenant les progrès nouveaux, les découvertes récentes dans les sciences, les lettres et les arts, la biographies des hommes illustres morts depuis la publication de l’Encyclopédie Catholique jusqu’à nos jours, etc. Ce supplément est le complément indispensable à l’Encyclopédie Catholique, publiée en 18 vol. in 4o, sous la direction de M. l’Abbé Glaire et de M. le vicomte Walsh.”
The first 18 volumes were issued in 152 livraisons (

This second edition (third printing) was issued under the direction of the publisher Heinrich August Pierer [1794–1850]. Most of the entries on Coleoptera are not informative but some, usually signed “Wr” (someone named Winkler), are detailed and could be of interest. The title has remained unchanged through this edition except that starting with volume 16 “220 Gelehrten” is changed to “300 Gelehrten.”
The first edition of this encyclopedia was issued in 26 volumes, 1824–1837, under the title “Encyclopädisches Wörterbuch der Wissenschaften, Künste und Gewerbe, bearbeitet von mehreren Gelehrten” [HATH, in part]. A second printing of the first edition was published, 1835–1837, under the title “Universal-Lexikon oder vollständiges encyclopädisches Wörterbuch herausgegeben von H.A. Pierer” [HATH]. A third edition came out of the press in 17 volumes, 1849–1852, under the title of the seond edition. Four subsequent editions will be issued after Pierer’s death under the title “Pierer’s Universal-Lexikon…”.

In old works, the term “publisher” could signify the author, printer or bookseller (libraire in French) who underwrote the costs of publication.
Dates found on wrappers for works issued in parts are listed but it should be noted that they could be in error because printers sometimes used old wrappers.
A few booklets were found online but not connected to a particular digital library and are identified as “Online” in this bibliography; the links are not provided because some are not available anymore.
The city seat is listed in brackets unless its name appears in the society name. Society names are those used at the time of the notices; some are know today under different names.
There are no dates, besides the year, associated with this journal. However, it was published in 12 issues which is assumed to correspond to each month of the year. Many Hefte seen of this journal include unnumbered pages (usually two or three) placed at the beginning and/or the end of the Heft where many notifications of books are listed. Apparently these pages are not present on all copies (Neal L. Evenhuis, personal communication).

The atlas volume containing the insects reads besides the title “Tome neuvième. Atlas zoologique (mammifères, oiseaux, reptiles, poissons, mollusques, polypiers, foraminifères, crustacés et insectes.)” and is dated 1847.
Some sources (e.g.,
In his review of Clairville’s second volume of Entomologie helvétique, published in the April 1810 issue of the Magasin Encyclopédique, Latreille mentioned that Bonelli had just published his first memoir on the beetles of the family “des Carabes.”
These two pages are the “Rapport fait a l’Académie des sciences par MM. Duméril, et Geoffroy-Saint-Hilaire, sur les tableaux méthodiques du Règne Animal de M. Achille Comte.” The second page is dated 18 June 1832.
The second livraison was noted in Le Bibliologue for 31 January 1833. However, considering that the livraison was noticed much later in the Bibliographie de la France, the notification may simply have been an advertisement from the publishing house.
The book was received by the Société Entomologique de France during the year 1866 and the first three months of 1867. Therefore it must have been published between 1 January and 31 March 1867 if the date on the title page is correct.
The plate includes also the illustration of another species, unnamed on the plate but named Stenocorus obscurus in the text.
The Bibliographie de la France recorded Duméril’s volume without the plates on 17 May 1823 and with the plates on 18 October 1823.
The entry in Verzeichniss der Bücher, Landkarten gives the year of publication as “Berlin 1829 (1830)” which probably indicates that Hefte 2 and 3 are dated 1829 but were published in 1830.

This volume was listed in The Christian Remembrancer (vol. 9, p. 404) as having been published at the Leipzig Easter Fair of 1827, which was held on 6 May 1827 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

Based on the entries in Allgemeine Bibliographie für Deutschland and Bibliographische Blätter der Press-Zeitung for the year 1840, Heft 178 was issued before Hefte 176 and 177.
The announcement is appended to volume 4 of Zeitschrift für die Entomologie in GB.
The Entomological Society of London reported in their Journal of Proceeding (p. lxxxix) the acquisition of the three volumes of The coleopterist’s manual by Hope in the “additions to the library, from December 31, 1836, to September 30, 1840.” This may be an error for the first two volumes only considering the date of publication reported by
The bottom of page 17 is dated March 1898 which is probably an error for April 1898 considering the date at the bottom of page 3.
These notes are at the British Museum (Natural History). Sherborn seems to have seen wrappers for most if not all the livraisons. Unfortunately, the date on some of the wrappers may have been incorrect. For exemple, at the request of Kraatz, Deyrolle who was the publisher of Jacquelin du Val’s Manuel entomologique assured him that the first livraison of the Staphylinidae (i.e., livraison 45 of the entire work) was issued in May 1857 (
The wrapper of livraison 48 (pp. 33–40) is dated 1855 (Sherborn’s notes;
It appears that the family treatments in the catalogue were issued at the same time or shortly after the publication of the family in the book itself. Therefore the dates attached to the new species here are those found during this study for their respective families in the book.
Jacquelin du Val mentioned in his catalogue on page 184 that the catalogue section of the Tenebrionidae was published shortly after the second edition of the Catalogus Coleopterorum Europae of Schaum issued early 1862. Therefore publication of the tenebrionid part (pp. 169–184) of Jacquelin du Val’s catalogue was published in 1862 and the date of 1862 should be attributed to Tribolium confusum.
The Academy of Sciences of Philadelphia received livraisons 78–80 on 22 December 1857, not on 17 June 1857 as noted by
Several pages in this work have a date at the bottom but these seem to refer to the date when the text was written.
The copy I have seen had only six plates (1–5 and 8).
The footnote on page 83 written by Klug suggests that Wilhelm Ferdinand Erichson is the author of this section.
Two notifications seen, one on 7 September 1842 (Lit Zeit) and the other for July–December 1842 (Verz Bücher Landkarten), mentioning the fourth Band (Hefte 61–80) probably refer to the publication of the title page rather than the whole volume.
The first 12 Hefte were noticed in
It is possible that the printer used the same wrapper as for the first livraison since the numbering of the livraison on the wrapper is handwritten. Therefore the date of 1834 for the second livraison is questionable.
Their source for the dates is derived from the “Inter Documentation Company micro-edition.”
In fact, it seems apparent that Engelmann confused this work with the Histoire naturelle et iconographie des insectes coléoptères of Laporte and Gory published in livraisons from 1835 to 1841.

The date is incorrect because the printer used wrappers of the second livraison. There are several references in the text to the first volume of Dejean’s Species général des Coléoptères published in September 1825.
The number of plates indicated is different for some volumes.
Plates 8 and 9 were first issued in the 1831 edition published in New York.
The copy on ARC has a subsequent title page, dated 1830, which reads “ The Edinburgh Encyclopaedia… In eightheen volumes. Volume IX.” The original title page of the first part of volume 8 was not seen during this study.
The Bibliographie de la France recorded livraison 1 (2 sheets, no plates) on 20 March 1830, livraison 2 (2 sheets and 5 plates) on 2 October 1830, livraison 3 (one sheet and 5 plates) on 29 January 1831, livraisons 6–8 (3 sheets and 15 plates) on 9 July 1831 and livraisons 13–16 (31/4 sheets and 20 plates) on 19 May 1832. No entries were found for livraisons 4–5 and 9–12.

The date listed “Nov. 1843” is obviously a lapsus for Nov. 1863.

The date listed on the title page is “1863–Février 1863” but this is an error, probably for “1863–Février 1864” since one of the article of the volume (pp. 405–599) was presented at the Société Linnéenne de Lyon on 11 January 1864.
The date listed is “Octobre 1878” but this may be a typographic error for “Octobre 1879” since the last article of the volume (pp. 323–325) was presented at the Société Linnéenne de Lyon on 11 November 1878.
Le Naturaliste recorded on 1 November 1882 (p. 168), in their section “Livres nouveaux,” the “Catalogue des insectes de Portugal” de Manoel Paulino de Oliveira without further comments. Possibly this notification refers to the first part (pp. 1–112) of the publication.

The eighth volume of the translation, entitled “ Voyages du Professeur Pallas, dans plusieurs provinces de l’empire de Russie et dans l’Asie septentrionale; traduits de l’allemand par le C. Gauthier de La Peyronie. Nouvelle édition. Appendix, contenant les descriptions des animaux et des végétaux observés dans les Voyages du Professeur Pallas, et cités ou mentionnés dans les volumes précédens; avec des notes et observations par le C. Lamarck. Tome huitième” contains remarks by Lamarck, some of which are taxonomically important. The eight volumes were issued simultaneously in An II [= 22 September 1793–21 September 1794]. They were noticed on January 1795 (Esprit J) suggesting they were issued in 1794.
The dates of 1786 and 1787 for the second and third Hefte respectively could not be corroborated in this study.
The title page is dated “1864–Février 1864” but this is a lapsus probably for “1864–Février 1865” since one paper (pp. 258–288) included in the volume was presented to the society on 14 November 1864.
Considering the review date in the Revue Zoologique, the date on the title page is likely incorrect.
The notice in the Feuilleton du Journal de la Librairie mentioned the sale of two livraisons, but this is likely a lapsus for one livraison.

The date listed in the Vorbemerkung for this Heft is incorrect. The wrapper is dated 1895 and the Heft has been recorded on May 1895 (Nat Nov), 8 June 1895 (Academy), July 1895 (Ent Nachr 21: 222), 25 August 1895 (Wien Ent Zeit 14: 260) and November 1895 (Polybiblion).
The Société Entomologique de France received pages 113–144 on 14 May 1890.
Naturae Novitates recorded pages 353–384 on May 1894 and pages 385–426 on August 1894.
Hagen stated under this work “Die Ankündigung vom 22. Septbr. 1796 kl. 8. pg. 2 mit Panzer. Fn. Germ. Heft 41 ausgegeben.”
Pages 45–48 were skipped.
Some of the dates of publication recorded by
The work was apparently published in livraisons starting in 1766. “La premiere partie” [the first part] was noticed, without further qualification, in April 1767 by the Gazette Littéraire de l’Europe. According to
The statement of
The work was noticed in the January–June 1805 issue of Verzeichniss neuer Bücher (later, Verzeichniss der Bücher, Landkarten &c) as “Weigel, J.A.V., Beschreibung von Schlesien, 10r Bd. Fauna Silesiaca, gr. 8. Berlin, Himburg. I thl. 8 gr.” (p. 162). Considering the date of the Vorrede, it is possible that this notification refers to another printing without the Vorrede. Unfortunately, the July–December 1805 issue of the journal was not available.
At the meeting of the Entomological Society of London on 7 July 1873 it was announced that “Prof. Westwood sent copies of two parts of his forthcoming ‘Thesaurus Entomologicus Oxoniensis.’ These parts were probably the first two. Westwood presented a copy of the second part to the Society on 1 February 1875, after he presented parts 3 and 4 on 7 December 1874.
The letter is bound with the Insecta Maderensia volume in the library.

In old works, the term “publisher” could signify the author, printer or bookseller (libraire in French) who underwrote the costs of publication.
Dates found on wrappers for works issued in parts are listed but it should be noted that they could be in error because printers sometimes used old wrappers.
Titles starting with an article are also listed without it.
Except for Appendix 11, the source of the dates for the plates is listed in the main text.
“Cette dernière espèce est le type du genre pristonychus Dejean” (caption).
“Le Lissome equestre forme aujourd’hui pour tous les entomologistes le genre Drapetes, le L. punctulatus et les autres espèces toutes exotiques, celui de Lissomus proprement dit” (caption).
Fig. 7b shows the antenna of Coxelus pictus Sturm.
In the caption the species is listed as Brentus (Arrhenodes) italicus Fabr.
In the caption the species is listed as Hypera (Corniatus) tamarisci Fabr.
“Cette espèce est aujourd’hui le type du genre Macrodontia de M. Serville” (caption)
“Cet insecte est aujourd’hui, pour tous les entomologistes, le type du genre Purpuricenus” (caption).
“Cette espèce est aujourd’hui le type du genre Rosalia de Serville” (caption).
“M. Serville regarde cette espèce comme le type de son genre Cosmisoma” (caption).
The original text page, published with the plate, had the name Acilus cinereus but a substitute text page was published on December 1825 because the author find out that the species illustrated was not A. cinereus but an undescribed species he named Acilus caliginosus.
On the plate the name is listed as Scarabaeus nasicornis-americanus.
The specific name is listed as africana on the plate.
No dates were found for plates 15 and 25. Since the Coleoptera plates were issued between 1835 and 1843, according to the dates on the wrappers, the date of 1843 should be tentatively attributed to those two plates.
The two beetles represented on 6 and 7 are obviously different species. In the text, figure 6 is referred to Alcides elegans Guer. I was unable to find a reference in the text for figure 7.
