Abstract

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.

Keywords

Coleoptera , beetles, literature, dates of publication, biographies

Introduction

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 (ICZN 1999: Article 3), to the end of 1900. Works published in periodical literature, such as journals and proceedings of meetings, are not listed nor are reprints of articles unless the reprint version appeared first or is the version most often cited in the literature. Works issued in journals with separate pagination or as supplements are included in this bibliography because they are usually bound separately from the journal issues. Particular attention has been given to works containing new taxa (at the family, generic and species levels, including fossils), new synonymies and type species designations for genus-group taxa. Besides the dates of publication, this bibliography provides exact titles, publisher’s names if listed, places of publication, paginations (including number of plates) and sizes for all works included. Brief biographic notes of the authors are included if information was available.

Format

The format used in this book is essentially similar to that used by Evenhuis (1997a, b). For each publication listed, the following information is provided.

Author Name. The name of the author of the publication, or section of the work, is given in full. Variations in orthography are listed in square brackets. If more than one author is responsible for the publication, their names are listed in square brackets before the title of the work.

Biographical Note. This section includes biographical notes about the author. First, the places and dates of birth and death are given in parentheses if available1. Then a brief biographical sketch follows, usually including the current location of the author’s collection if known2. The section concludes with a limited selection of references pertaining to the biography of the author.

Literature Citation. The following information is provided for every work cited.

Year(s). The actual year of publication or range of years if the work was issued in parts is listed. If the year is uncertain, it is given in brackets.

Title. The full title of the work is listed taken from the title page. Alternative titles from additional title pages are indicated in the remarks section.

Imprint. The publisher(s)3 and place(s) of publication of the work are listed in the original orthography.

Pagination and plates. Complete pagination of the work or section of a work is given. Unnumbered pages are counted and the number given in square brackets. The number of plates included in the book or associated with it is provided.

Size. The signature size of the work is listed in parentheses using the standard denotations folio, 4to (quarto), 8vo (octavo), 12mo (duodecimo), etc. This information was gathered mainly from Hagen (1862, 1863), Derksen and Scheiding (1963) and Derksen and Scheiding-Göllner (1965, 1968, 1972).

Date of publication [DP]. This section, usually given after the signature size or for works issued in parts in the remarks section, lists dates of publication found during this study. The first one is the date (usually indicated only by the year) on the title page4. It is followed in parentheses by the date listed in the preliminaries, such as the preface or the dedication, or on the last printed text-page (colophon) if it exists, which is cited here simply to denote that a particular work could not have been published before that date. This is followed chronologically by the dates found in accounts of society meetings, in journals or in other works. If the date on the title page is the earliest known date, then this date is to be adopted as the date of publication of the work unless there is evidence that the work, or part of the work, was indeed published later. If the earliest date known is the year only, then it is assumed that the work was published on the last day of that year, as stated in article 21.3.2 of the Code (ICZN 1999).

The date of publication is defined in the Code (ICZN 1999: 102) as “the date on which copies of the work become available by purchase or free distribution.” Unless listed on the work itself, most dates found in this study are not the actual dates of publication but dates on which works are demonstrated to be in existence as published works. Since most dates found are from published lists of works received by societies or institutions, from contemporary reviews in journals, or from national registers of publications, such as the Bibliographie de la France or the Allgemeine Bibliographie für Deutschland, there is sometimes a significant gap between the actual date of publication and that reported. This is particularly true for journals publishing reviews of works. Nevertheless, the earliest dates reported in this study, if earlier than on the title pages, should be considered as dates of publication until better dating can be found.

Source. The libraries consulted for each particular work treated in this publication are listed in abbreviated form (see “source” section below).

Remarks. This section provides information relevant to the work such as alternate title pages, subsequent editions, translations, Commission actions, etc. Books issued in parts are often detailed, with the date of publication of each part, in this section. Subsequent editions that contained new or significant taxonomic information may be cited separately.

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.

Section XV of the second volume (pp. 245–256 + 3 pls), entitled “Of the insects and testaceous animals of Lapland,” includes a list of insects collected; some species of Coleoptera are briefly described and illustrated but none of them are new to science.

A German translation was published in Berlin, 1803, under the title “Reise durch Schweden und Finnland, bis an die äussersten Gränzen von Lappland, in den Jahren 1798 und 1799. Von Joseph Acerbi. Aus dem Englischen übersetzt von Ch. Weyland” [GB]. A French translation was issued in three volumes (8vo) in Paris, 1803–1804, under the title “Voyage au Cap-Nord, par la Suede, la Finlande et la Laponie, par Joseph Acerbi.

The entire series consists of four volumes, 1893–1900, treating the vertebrates and the Insecta. Despite the title, it is evident from the avant-propos that Acloque did not mean to designate type species for the genus-group taxa treated in the sense of the Code.

The following genus-group names are made available in this work: Eudromius (p. 49), Eubrachinus (p. 50), Euditomus (p. 53), Pseudelaphrus (p. 81), Euphilhydrus (p. 94), Euberosus (p. 94), and Pseudhydraena (p. 96). The new family-group names Ilybii (p. 83) and Pholidini (p. 145) are also made available for the first time.

The entire work was published in two volumes, issued simultaneously. Two new species of beetles are described in the second volume, Bolboceras koreensis (p. 462) and Platyrhynchus waltonianus (p. 468).

As noted by Petit (2007: 91–92) there was a lengthly review of this book in The Athenaeum for 25 December 1847 by W.H. Dixon. Several quotations from the work are included but the title given differs slightly from that published and the publisher is listed as “Reeve & Co.” a firm that ceased to exist in November 1847. Clearly Dixon was furnished with a review copy.

This volume is the 12th and last fascicle of Agassiz’s Nomenclator zoologicus. Another edition, 12mo, was published in 1848 and contains 1135 pages. According to Evenhuis (1997a: 52), there are no apparent differences between the two editions other than page size and pagination. The work includes numerous unjustified emendations of generic names.

This work was intended to supplement Panzer’s Faunae Insectorum Germanicae initia. Ahrens published the first fascicle, Germar and Kaulfuss the third one, 1816 [q.v.], and Germar the second (1814) and last 21 (1822–1847) [q.v.]. Rautenberg (1957: 615–625) gave a list of all species illustrated on the plates for the 24 fascicles.

The Histoire naturelle des Coléoptères was published in three parts, forming two volumes, 1887–1902. The second volume was authored by Kunckel d’Herculais, 1887–1891 [q.v.]. According to Friedländer (1902: 209), the first volume was published only in 1902 despite the date on the title page; this seems to be confirmed by the entries in the two recording journals cited above.

The entire Histoire physique, naturelle et politique de Madagascar was issued in 57 fascicles, forming 39 volumes, 1875–1954, first under the direction of Alfred Grandidier, 1875–1913, then Alfred and Guillaume Grandidier, 1914–1932, and finally Guillaume Grandidier, 1942–1954. Alluaud’s contribution is the 52nd fascicle of the series.

This work contains a list of beetles, with localities, known from Madagascar and nearby islands. One new replacement name, Eutelonotus (p. 456) to be attributed to Fairmaire, is proposed for Eutelus Solier, a junior homonym of Eutelus Walker.

The publisher and place of publication are not indicated. Although published anonymously, the work is credited to Asso y del Río (e.g., Dryander 1798: 240; Agassiz 1848: 148). It contains an annotated list of the animals of Aragon in northeast Spain. The Coleoptera are on pages 96–109; the known species are named but those not recognized by the author are described but not named.

This work was published in ten livraisons, corresponding to livraisons 47–56 of the entire series started by Dejean and Boisduval, 1829–1836 [q.v.]. The first livraison was noticed in the Annales de la Société Entomologique de France (p. ciii) as published between 1 October 1836 and 31 December 1836 and recorded by the Bibliographie de la France on 25 February 1837 (three feuilles and five plates). I have not been able to find any dates of publication regarding the other livraisons. The title page is dated 1836, the preface 12 November 1836. Guignot (1932: 548) researched the dates of publication and indicated that pages 1–64 were distributed in November or early December 1836, pages 65–224 between April and December 1837, and pages 225–415 in 1838. At the request of Frank Balfour-Browne, F.J. Griffin, then registrar of the Royal Entomological Society of London, found that pages 1–48 of this work were issued between 1 October and 1 December 1836 (Balfour-Browne 1936: 105). This corroborates the Bibliographie de la France entry which noticed three feuilles of text (48 pp.). At this time, the dates of publication that should be retained are: (pp. 1–48) 1 December 1836; (pp. 49–224) 31 December 1837; (pp. 225–415) 31 December 1838.

This section constitutes livraisons 1 and 2 (but registered as livraison 1) of the Faune Française which was issued in 29 livraisons, 1821–1830. There is no date on the cover of the copy I have seen but Bedel (1877: lxxxvi), who commented on all new species described in these two livraisons, mentioned that it was published in 1821. This is corroborated by the entry in the Bibliographie de la France. A new edition of these two livraisons was issued in 1829 [q.v.] along with livraison 24.

The Faune Française was published with the plates available colored or uncolored; a few copies were available in 4to.

This is the third (also called the Disciples’) edition of Cuvier’s Le Règne animal. It was published in 262 livraisons, each containing a mixture of text and plates for each class. Completed sets of livraisons were subsequently bound into 20 volumes divided into sections. The insect section comprised two volumes, each with two parts (text and atlas [vide infra]).

The Coleoptera are on pages 81–538 of the first volume, issued in the following livraisons: 112: (pp. 81–88) January 1841; 123: (pp. 89–96) July 1841; 126: (pp. 97–104) August 1841; 132: (pp. 105–112) November 1841; 138: (pp. 113–120) February 1842; 155: (pp. 121–128) October 184211; 159: (pp. 129–136) December 1842; 162: (pp. 137–144 [pages 145–146 were not printed]) January 1843, 9 February 1843 (Sherborn 1922b: 555); 171: (pp. 147–154) 11 May 1843 (Sherborn 1922b: 555), May 1843; 175: (pp. 155–162) July 1843; 181: (pp. 163–202) 10 August 1843 (Sherborn 1922b: 555), September 1843; 183: (203–242) October 1843; 186: (pp. 243–282) November 1843; 189: (pp. 283–322) January 1844; 193: (pp. 323–362) March 1844; 198: (pp. 363–402) May 1844; 201: (pp. 403–442) 26 July 1844 (Sherborn 1922b: 555), July 1844; 205: (pp. 443–450) September 1844; 207: (pp. 451–490) November 1844; 209: (pp. 491–530) December 1844; 210: (pp. 531–555) 17 January 1845 (Sherborn 1922b: 555), January 1845.

The names of the insects depicted on the plates are considered type-species designations as indicated in the title of the work. Plates 16–17 are signed “L.D. [= L. Doyère] et V. [= probably Valenciennes]” and plates 18–75 “Em. Bl.” or “Emile Bl. [= Emile Blanchard]” to whom type-species designations should be attributed. Plate 15 shows beetle larvae (and a pupa) of various families. The species depicted on plates 16–75 are listed in Appendix 1.

A note below Bates’ name on page 423 reads “The Curculionidae have been named and described by Mr. H.W.

The entire expedition report was published in seven volumes of text and two volumes of plates17, 1835–1849, issued in 90 livraisons (Dickinson et al. 2011: 88). A facsimile edition was published by Junk, in Lochem, 1972. Graesse (1863: 35) mentioned that a new edition was published in 1852, Paris. However, although labelled “nouvelle édition,” it is for the most part supplementary information published in 1852 and 1853 under the title “Voyage dans les deux Amériques, augmenté de renseignements exacts jusqu’en 1853 sur les différents états du Nouveau Monde.” A Spanish version in four volumes was published in 1945, in Buenos Aires, without the zoology section, under the title “Viaje a la América meridional – Brasil – República del Uruguay – República Argentina – La Patagonia – República de Chile – República de Bolivia – República del Perú – realizado de 1826 a 1833 por Alcides d’Orbigny.

Dumont-d’Urville, Capitaine de vaisseau; publié par ordre du gouvernement, sous la direction supérieure de M. Jacquinot, Capitaine de vaisseau, commandant de la Zélée. Zoologie Atlas. Paris. 140 plates. (Folio) McG

The Zoologie Atlas contains 140 colored plates, published in 28 livraisons between 25 March 1842 and 24 February 1854. The Coleoptera are depicted on 19 plates (numbered 1–19) representing 325 species of which 241 were considered to be new and indicated by Nob[is]. Furthermore a number of new genera were made available from the plates. The dates of publication of these 19 plates, as discussed by Emberson (1992) (see also Clark and Crosnier 2000) unless otherwise noted, are: Plate 1 [livr. 3]: 1 December 1842; Plate 2 [livr. 4]: 2 February 1843; Plate 3 [livr. 5]: 4 May 1843; Plate 4 [livr. 7]: 26 August 1843; Plate 5 [livr. 11]: 19 July 1844; Plates 6–7 [livr. 12]: 20 December 1844 (Soc Géog Fr), 10 January 1845; Plate 8 [livr. 21]: 5 November 1846; Plate 9 [livr. 17]: 6 July 1846; Plate 10 [livr. 21]: 5 November 1846; Plate 11 [livr. 22]: 6 April 1847; Plate 12 [livr. 21]: 5 November 1846; Plate 13 [livr. 20]: 6 July 1846; Plate 14 [livr. 22]: 6 April 1847; Plate 15 [livr. 21]: 5 November 1846; Plates 16–17 [livr. 18]: 6 July 1846; Plate 18 [livr. 17]: 6 July 1846; Plate 19 [livr. 20]: 6 July 1846. A list of the Coleoptera depicted on the plates is given in Appendix 2. The text was published in 1853 [q.v.].

The entire expedition report was divided into seven parts: Histoire du voyage; Anthropologie; Botanique; Géologie, Minérologie et géographie physique; Hydrographie; Physique; and Zoologie. Most of the zoological material of this expedition was collected around the Straits of Magellan, on various southern Pacific Islands, including New Zealand, in Tasmania, along the north coast of Australia and in the Indo-Malaysian archipelago from New Guinea to Singapore (Emberson 1992: 251).

The entire report of Jacquemont’s expedition was published in four volumes of text and two volumes of plates issued in 80 livraisons, 1835–1844. The date of 1844 listed on the title page of volume 4 probably refers to the completion of the volume. Collation and dates of publication of each livraison are desired. Overall, the atlases contain 290 plates and four maps. Three of these plates refer to entomology and all of them pertain to Lepidoptera only.

The Coleoptera are on pages 25–28 of the crustacea and insects section and the new species described are Mylabris jacquemontii (p. 26), Diacanthus fuscipennis (p. 27), and Bruchus biguttatus (p. 27).

The entire Historia fisica y politica de Chile of Claude Gay [1800–1873] consists of 28 text-volumes and two atlas-volumes, 1844–1871. The Zoologia section forms eight volumes published between 1847 and 1854 based on the title-page dates. The text and plates were issued in 87 parts (Evenhuis 2015c: 40). Collation and dates of publication for the parts are desired.

The Coleoptera are in volumes 4 and 5. There are 32 plates depicting beetles, with scientific names listed at the bottom. These are included in the second volume of “Atlas de la historia fisica y politica de Chile” dated 1854 on the title page [GB]. Stuardo Ortiz (1954) provided a list of all botanical and zoological taxa illustrated on the plates.

The remaining pages of volume 5 related to Coleoptera were authored by Solier, 1851 [q.v.].

The second page is entitled “Zoologie. Description des insectes par Émile Blanchard.” The Coleoptera are on pages 1–347.

The entire expedition report was published in 22 volumes and several atlases totaling about 500 plates. The zoology section appeared in three volumes (vol. III: 1853; vol. IV: 1853; vol. V: 1854) and one atlas of 140 colored plates (Clark and Crosnier 2000). Most of the plates were published before the text (see Blanchard, 1842–1854) and the new taxa depicted on them date from the plates.

The Coleoptera section was published in two parts, corresponding to Häfte 4 and 6 of the whole work (see Linnström 1883: 385): (pp. 1–112) 1858; (pp. 113–218) 1859, August 1859 (Swensk Bibl). Persson (1971) presented information regarding the voyage and the insect collection. The book was reissued in 1910 by Alqvist & Wiksells in Uppsala & Stockholm, with Latin text [McG].

This voyage was the first Swedish circumnavigation expedition, undertaken during the years 1851–1853 under the command of Chistian Adolf Virgin [1797–1870]. The crew visited South America, Panama, Galapagos Islands, California, Hawaii, Tahiti, Australia, Hong Kong, Canton, the Philippines, Mauritius and the Cape. The entire expedition report was published in three sections, botany, zoology, and physics, in five volumes, 1857–1910. The first official account of the expedition was published in 1851–1854 by C.J.A. Skogman as “Fregatten Eugenies Resa omkring jorden.”

The expedition report was divided into five sections: Histoire du voyage; Botanique; Observations nautiques et de physique; Philologie; and Zoologie. The Faune entomologique de l’Océan Pacifique, part of the Zoologie section, was issued into two volumes, both written by Boisduval. The first one, dealing with Lepidoptera, was published in 1832; the second one, dealt with here, comprises livraisons 36–38 of the zoology portion (Evenhuis 1997a: 104). Twelve plates were issued for the entomology part, including four on Coleoptera (pls 6–9). I found no dates of publication for the plates except that Crotch (1874: 32) reported that the first livraison of plates was issued in 1832. Since only French vernacular names are provided for the species illustrated on the plates, they are not nomenclaturally significant.

This work was also published the same year under the title “Faune entomologique de l’Océanie comprenant les coléoptères, les hémiptères, les orthoptères, les névroptères, les hyménoptères et les diptères” by Roret, Paris [CNC, BHL].

The preface along with the list of works (pp. 1–17) and generalities (i–107) are attributed to both authors. As indicated in the preface (p. 9), Lacordaire is the sole author of the text relating to the orders, including the Coleoptera (pp. 133–677), treated in this volume. According to the publisher, the entire work was to consist of three volumes but only the first one was issued.

This work consists of two volumes, the first one issued 1827–1829 (Hagen 1862: 82) and the second one 1830–1833. The second volume was issued in eight parts recorded as follows: 1–2: (pp. 1–52 + 10 pls) 2 October 1830 (Bibl Deutsch); 3–4: (pp. 53–124 + 10 pls) 24 September 1831 (Pharm Centr), 8 October 1831 (Bibl Deutsch), July–December 1831 (Verz Derj Bücher); 5: (pp. 125–196 + 5 pls) 11 August 1832 (Bibl Deutsch); 6–8: (pp. iv + 197–364 + 14 pls) 10 December 1833 (Bibl Deutsch), January–June 1834 (Verz Bücher Landkarten). The title page is dated 1833, the Vorrede August 1833. Sherborn (1922a: xxix) gave the following publication dates: 1–3: 1831; 4–6: 1832; 7–8: 1833. The Coleoptera are treated in the second volume (pp. 100–142). At least two new species are described, Meloe reticulatus (p. 108) and Lytta violacea (p. 123). Sherborn (1932a: 6915) dated the second species from 1832; the first one was omitted. Based on this study, both species should be dated 1831.

The text of this publication was also issued, almost integrally, in Revue Zoologique 1842: 81–83 [March], 106–114 [April] under the titles “Note monographique sur le genre Misolampus” (pp. 81–83) and “Monographie des Sphœrotus et de quelques autres genres appartenant au premier groupe de la tribu des blapsides (famille des Coléoptères hétéromères)” (pp. 106–114). I have noticed the following two changes in the spelling of the scientific names between the two publications: Misolampus gondotii (p. 11) is spelled Misolampus goudotii (p. 82) in the journal and Sphoerotus loevigatus (p. 15) is spelled Sphoerotus levigatus (p. 108).

Several new fossil species of beetles, including Carabus elongatus, Coccinella wittsii and Elater vetustus, are named and made available by illustrations.

A section entitled “Introductory observations by Mr. Westwood” (pp. xi–xviii) suggests that J.O. Westwood should be regarded as the author of the new species illustrated on plates 2–6. Evenhuis (1997a: 128) believed so while Sherborn, in his Index Animalium, credited the new species to Brodie.

The text for this section of the work was published in eight livraisons: 1–2: (pp. 1–96) April–June 1832 (Soc Ent Fr [Annales, p. 243]), 5 September 1832 (Soc Ent Fr), 24 September 1832 (Acad Sci Fr); 3–4: (pp. 97–192) July–September 1832 (Soc Ent Fr [Annales, p. 334]); 5–6: (pp. 193–288) 9 January 1833 (Soc Ent Fr); 7: (pp. 289–336) 20 March 1833 (Soc Ent Fr); 8: (pp. 337–400 + [2]) 3 April 1833 (Soc Ent Fr). The whole volume was received on 18 March 1833 by the Académie des Sciences. The Coleoptera are on pages 114–274 (livraisons 3–6) and plates 33–44. Dates of publication of some of the plates are known (see Evenhuis 1997a: 137) and are indicated in Appendix 11 along with the list of species illustrated. Brullé is the author of the entire book except for pages 30–63 which deal with crustacés.

The publication dates provided by Evenhuis (1997a: 136) for the fifth and sixth livraisons could not be confirmed. No entries were found in the Bibliographie de la France for the year 1832 regarding livraisons of text; all those recorded concerned livraisons of plates.

The scientific expedition to Morea was linked to the French military mission to the Peloponnese from January 1829 to July 1833. Members of the mission reached Greece by March 1829 but by early 1830 most of them, exhausted by diseases and deprivation, had returned to France. Nevertheless, a large quantity of botanical and zoological specimens had been collected during these few months.

The two livraisons for volume 5 have been recorded by the Bibliographie de la France only in 1837 suggesting that the dates on the title pages (e.g., 1835) could be incorrect. However the entire volume was noted by Burmeister (1836: 294) in his review of the entomological literature for 1835.

According to the prospectus (Feuilleton du Journal de la Librairie of 9 August 1834), the entire series was to comprise 12 volumes and 240 plates (either colored or uncolored) issued in 24 livraisons of text and 30 cahiers of plates. Only volumes 4–6 on Coleoptera and 9 dealing with Orthoptera and Hemiptera were published and all four were authored by Brullé alone.

This thesis consists of a list of the carabid species of Pavia, Italy, with habitat data. One new species, listed under the name “Demetrias ruficeps. Gené MS” (p. 9), is described; the taxon should be attributed to Carlo Giuseppe Gené [1800–1847].

Agassiz (1848: 400) listed a work entitled “Enumeratio Caraborum Ticinensium” published in 1830 by someone named “Brambilla.” There is no such work and the reference certainly pertains to Cadolini’s thesis. Hagen (1863: 303) listed this thesis under Cadolini and Giovanni Maria Zendrini [1783–1857].

Chaudoir, Maximilien de (Baron) (Ivnitza, Ukraine: 12 September 1816 – 6 May 1881: Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda, Pyrénées-Orientales, France). Russian entomologist of independent means, who specialized early in life in the study of Carabidae; at 15, left for Dorpat (Tartu) to study law but never obtained his degree; made the sole extensive collecting trip of his life, a 40 day-journey to the Caucasus in company of M.H. Hochhuth in 1845; settled in his native town, Ivnitza, in Ukraine but moved in 1864 to Paris and then to Amélie-les-Bains-Palalda, France; made several trips to various cities in Europe to study type specimens in museums and private collections; his collection, certainly one of the best of his time (if not the best) on the family Carabidae, passed in the hands of René Oberthür after Chaudoir’s death and eventually ended up at the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle in Paris.

Hagen (1862: 153) and other bibliographers mentioned that this work contains 12 plates and eight pages. However, the copy on GDZ has 12 written pages, one for each plate, where the species illustrated are named and described. According to Krauss (1920: 33), the plates were issued in three parts as follows: 1: (pls 1–4) 1787; 2: (pls 5–8) 1791; 3: (pls 9–12) 1792. The title page is dated 1787.

Only one new species of beetle, Mylabris 12-punctata, is described and illustrated on plate 5. All new species in this work have been dated 1787 in Sherborn’s Index Animalium.

The text pertaining to the new species described in this work was extracted by Meyer (1794: 270–282).

These volumes were published anonymously and although some authors attributed the work to Johann Ulrich Schellenberg [q.v.], Clairville, as indicated on the title page of his 1811 work “Manuel d’herborisation en Suisse et en Valais...,” is the author. Méquignon (1940) pointed out that Clairville wrote the text and Johann Ulrich Schellenberg did the illustrations. This was confirmed by Kerzhner (1991: 118). The text is both in French (verso pages) and German (recto pages). Engelmann’s (1846: 477) entry suggests that separate French and German versions were also issued but this could not be corroborated. Latreille (1799, 1810) wrote a short review of the first volume and an extended one of the second volume.

This work consists of 91 plates, each corresponding to a livraison, with about 5000 illustrations depicting various genera and subgenera of animals. According to the prospectus, each plate depicts the type of a genus or subgenus in 77 orders of animals. The Coleoptera are on plates 74, 75, 78, 80, 82–88. Plate 83 was recorded on March 1840 in Revue Zoologique and plates 82–85 on 10 July 1841 in the Bibliographie de la France. All the species names of beetles are in vernacular form. Each plate is entitled “Règne animal de Mr le Baron Cuvier, disposé en tableaux méthodiques.

The title cited by Engelmann (1846: 319) and Evenhuis (1997a: 152) is “Règne animal de Cuvier, disposé en tableaux méthodiques, ouvrage adopté par le conseil royal de l’instruction publique, pour l’enseignement de l’histoire naturelle dans les établissements de l’université.

The entire work consists of two volumes issued simultaneously in four parts; it was published anonymously. The section on pages 157–191 is credited to Contarini because his name is listed after the description of the new species on pages 189–191. Three new species of beetles are described: Lixus roseus (p. 189), Chrysomela santonici (p. 189), and Coccinella villosa (p. 190).

The entire Fauna del Regno di Napoli was issued in sets of pages, 1829–1886 (Ruggiero 2002: 67), by Oronzio Gabriele Costa and his son Achille Costa. The entomology section was divided into six parts, each corresponding to an insect order. The parts dealing with Lepidoptera was written by O.G. Costa, those dealing with Coleoptera, Neuroptera and Hymenoptera by A. Costa, and those dealing with Orthoptera and Hemiptera by both O.G. and A. Costa (D’Erasmo 1949).

The entire work consists of seven volumes, 1752–1778. The Coleoptera are in volumes 4 and 5. Volume 7 contains a section entitled “Dixième mémoire. Supplément aux mémoires des volumes précédens, ou description de quelques insectes ailés, suivie de celle de plusieurs insectes du Cap-de-Bonne Espérance” (pp. 591–666) where several new species of Coleoptera are described (pp. 622–666).

A German translation of DeGeer’s work was issued by J.A.E. Goeze, 1777–1783 [q.v.].

Welter-Schultes and Wieland (2012) pointed out, in their application to the Commission, that DeGeer did not consistently follow strict binominal rules in this work when describing new species. Because many of the specific names proposed by DeGeer are used today, they proposed that the Commission ruled the work available while suppressing several polynominal names. The Coleoptera polynominal names recommended for suppression are: Lampyris noctiluca communis (vol. 4, p. 31), Elater fuscus major (vol. 4, p. 146), Elater fuscus minor (vol. 4, p. 146), Elater aeneus rufipes (vol. 4, p. 149), Elater fuscus flavipes (vol. 4, p. 151), Silpha nigra major (vol. 4, p. 173), Leptura aquatica spinosa (vol. 5, p. 140), Leptura aquatica mutica (vol. 5, p. 142), Leptura aquatica fasciata (vol. 5, p. 142), Leptura aquatica aenea (vol. 5, p. 143), Chrysomela marginella ranunculi (vol. 5, p. 304), Chrysomela viridis alni (vol. 5, p. 306), Chrysomela coerulea betulae (vol. 5, p. 317), Chrysomela coerulea salicis (vol. 5, p. 318), Chrysomela grisea alni (vol. 5, p. 325), Chrysomela cylindrica 4-punctata (vol. 5, p. 329), Chrysomela rubra liliorum (vol. 5, p. 339) and Chrysomela 22-punctata obscura (vol. 5, p. 380). In Opinion 2333 (ICZN 2014) the Commission suppressed these polynominal names and placed them on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Specific Names in Zoology. In the same Opinion, volumes 3–7 (1773–1778) of DeGeer’s Mémoires pour servir a l’histoire des insectes have been placed on the Official List of Works Approved as Available for Zoological Nomenclature.

Dejean, Pierre François Marie Auguste (Count) (Amiens, Somme, France: 10 August 1780 – 17 March 1845: Paris, France). French military officer and entomologist, specialized on Coleoptera; joined the army at the age of 15 and moved on to become general of division and aide-de-camp to Napoleon Bonaparte; collected insects in several countries, including Spain, Portugal, Germany, and Russia, where his military activity took him; went in exile in June 1815 and for the next three years collected in the eastern parts of the Austrian empire; returned in Paris at the end of 1818 and devoted the rest of his life mostly to entomology and politics, as he became a member of the Chambre des Pairs in 1824; his collection, the largest private beetle collection of his time, was sold in lots during 1840.

This edition of Lamarck’s work was issued in 11 volumes, 1835–1845. The Coleoptera are on pages 466–773 of volume 4. A third edition of Lamarck’s work was published in three volumes in Brussels, 1837–1839, under the same title with the addition of the words “Troisième édition, revue et augmentée de notes présentant les faits nouveaux dont la science s’est enrichie jusqu’a ce jour; par MM. G.P. Deshayes et H. Milne Edwards” [ANSP, GB]; the Coleoptera are on pages 160–264 of the second tome issued in 1839. According to Iredale (1922: 84–85) the third edition “must have been published in livraisons” as there are annotations first published in 1843 in the third volume dated 1839.

This volume was published in two parts: 1: (iv + xxxix + pp. 1–132) 18 December 1841 (Bibl Fr), 17 June 1842 (Soc Géog Fr); 2: (pp. 135–334) after March 1848, probably early 1850 (Bauchot et al. 1982: 63). The title page is dated 1841 and the avant-propos November 1841. Sherborn and Woodward (1901a: 391) dated the second part 1842 but Bauchot et al. (1982) found conclusive evidence that the reptile (pp. 133–154) and fish texts (pp. 155–216) were published after March 1848 and most likely in the early part of 1850. Since the insect section was not published separately, the insect names should be dated 1850.

There are two plates in the atlas illustrating insects, the second one (Insectes. Coléoptères Pl. 2) beetles. I have found no date of publication for the plates. All the names on the plates are in vernacular form.

Some of the new species of Coleoptera collected on this expedition were described earlier by F. Eydoux and L.F.A. Souleyet in Revue Zoologique, par la Société Cuvérienne 1839: 264–267 under the title “Descriptions sommaires de quelques Coléoptères nouveaux, provenant de Manille et destinés à être publiés dans le voyage autour du monde de la corvette la Bonite.”

The entire report of the expedition was published in 15 volumes of text and four atlases, 1840–1866. The zoology section consists of two volumes and an atlas of 101 engraved plates issued in several livraisons. The Vaillant expedition sailed via Cape Horn, and visited Brazil, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, and Colombia. The crew stayed a month in Hawaii, visiting both Kealakekua Bay and Honolulu, and then continued on to the Philippines and Canton. Cochin-China, Singapore, India, and finally St. Helena were also visited.

The entire Encyclopédie d’histoire naturelle consists of 31 volumes, 22 of text, illustrated with more than 8,000 figures and nine of tables (written by Eugène Desmarest), 1850–1861, under the direction of Jean Charles Chenu [1808–1879]. The Coleoptera section forms three volumes, 1850–1860, and one of tables, 1861 (Cowan 1971a). Although there is clear evidence that all three Coleoptera volumes were issued in series of livraisons, the publication dates of these cannot be established at this time. The first series of livraisons (3½ feuilles and 6 plates) was noticed on 21 September 1850 (Bibl Fr). No further livraisons were recorded in the Bibliographie de la France. The date of 1851 should be accepted for nomenclatural purposes. All three Coleoptera volumes contain type species designations for many genera.

Despite that the title pages of the three volumes of the Encyclopédie d’Histoire naturelle dealing with Coleoptera list Jean Charles Chenu as the author, the wrappers of the livraisons indicated that Desmarest was the author (see Bouchard et al. 2011: 12).

Annexes H–M are continuously paginated and include all the insects, except Lepidoptera.

A second edition was published in 1863 under the title “Notes sur l’île de la Réunion (Bourbon). Deuxième édition revue et corrigée” [GB] by the same publisher. There is no difference between the two editions regarding the Coleoptera section (Annexe H).

This work consists of a list of insects from the province of Vicenza in northeastern Italy. It was published in three fascicles (Nissen 1969: 118). I have seen the cover of the first fascicle which reads “Entomologia Vicentina.

An epitome of the natural history of the insects of China: comprising figures and descriptions of upwards of one hundred new, singular, and beautiful species; together with some that are of importance in medicine, domestic economy, &c. The figures are accurately drawn, engraved, and coloured, from specimens of the insects; the descriptions are arranged according to the system of Linnæus; with references to the writings of Fabricius, and other systematic authors. London. [96] pp. + [50] pls. (4to) [DP: 1798 (title page)] MCZ

The text and plates are unnumbered. This work was issued in parts. The Monthly Magazine recorded the first number on February 1798 and noticed that it will be completed in 17 monthly numbers. The work was noticed in the section “Books and pamphlets published in August 1799” by The Edinburgh Magazine. It was reviewed in the British Critic for the month of January 1800. Dates of publication are found on the plates. Eight plates deal with Coleoptera.

[1 April 1798]: Cerambyx rubus; Cerambyx reticulator; Cerambyx farinosus.

[1 May 1798]: Buprestis vittata; Buprestis ocellata.

[1 May 1798]: Scarabaeus molossus; Scarabaeus seniculus; Scarabaeus bucephalus.

[1 November 1798]: Curculio chinensis; Curculio longipes; ‒ barbirostris; ‒ verrucosus; ‒ squamosus; ‒ pulverulentus; ‒ perlatus.

[1 December 1798]: Scarabaeus midas; Scarabaeus nasicornis; ‒ cinctus; ‒ sacer; ‒ leei.

[1 January 1799]: Mylabris cichorei; Sagra femorata.

[1 March 1799]: Cetonia chinensis; Melolontha viridis.

[1 May 1799]: Curculio pulverulentus.

Of the 24 species of Coleoptera illustrated in this work, only one (Curculio chinensis) represents a new species, although it is a junior primary homonym.

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. T. Bensley, London. 2 + [58] pp. + [58] pls. (4to) CNC, BHL

This work was issued in 14 parts, 1800–1804, with the pages and plates unnumbered. The publication dates are found on the plates. The Coleoptera are on six plates.

[1 February 1800]: Curculio regalis; Curculio palmarum.

[1 November 1800]: Carabus 6 maculatus; Carabus 2 maculatus.

[1 June 1802]: Buprestis sternicornis; Buprestis chrysis; – aenea; – 4 maculata.

[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.

Some copies have an additional title page which reads “General illustration of entomology: part I. An epitome of the insects of Asia, elucidated in one hundred and fifty plates; with occasional observations, and descriptions after the linnaean and fabrician manner. In three volumes.” The first volume corresponds to “An epitome of the natural history of the insects of China” [1798–1799] and the second to “An epitome of the natural history of the insects of India” [1800–1804].

Percheron (1837: 87) mentioned that this work was issued by cahiers.

The entire work consists of five volumes, 1823–1827, each consisting of 12 issues (numbers). The dates of publication are found on the plates and the date listed for volume 2 is for the completion of the volume. Coleoptera are depicted only on some plates of volumes 2 and 3.

The work was reissued in 1834 under the title “The naturalist’s repository, or miscellany of exotic natural history, exhibiting rare and beautiful specimens of foreign birds, insects, shells, quadrupeds, fishes, and marine productions; more especially such new subjects as have not hitherto been figured, or correctly described; forming a compendium of the most interesting modern discoveries in zoology. In five volumes, with one hundred and eighty coloured plates” [McG]. An abridged edition was published under the title “The naturalist’s repository of exotic natural history: consisting of seventy-two elegantly coloured plates, with appropriate scientific and general descriptions, of the most curious, scarce, and beautiful quadrupeds, birds, fishes, insects, shells, marine productions, and other interesting objects of natural history, the produce of foreign climates.

Drury, Dru (London, United Kingdom: 4 February 1725 – 15 January 1804: London, United Kingdom). British silversmith by profession and entomologist; spent a lot of energy and money on his collection of insects which included the specimens he described and named (in the index) in his Illustrations of natural history and also the type material of a number of species described by Fabricius; after his death, his collection was sold at auction by King and Lochee on 23–25 May 1805 and the whereabouts of most of his syntypes are unknown.

As noted by Evenhuis (1997a: 212), the plates were sold as each one was ready. Therefore the dates indicated above are those in which the completed volumes were first sold or noticed.

The ICZN (1957a) ruled in Opinion 474 that the date of publication of the index, published with the second volume of Drury’s work in 1773, containing names formed in accordance with the principles of binominal nomenclature, is the official date of publication of the species described and figured but not so named in the first volume issued in 1770. Although published with the second volume, the index is often bound with the first volume.

The work includes nine folded tables of classification at the end of the first volume of the series; the “Huitième tableau. Classification des insectes” pertains to insects. These tables are the work of Duméril (Duméril 1822: 522). The entire series consists of five volumes (1800–1805). The first two tomes were written by Duméril from the presentations given by Cuvier who reviewed and corrected the text; volumes 3–5 were written by C.L. Duvernoy again from the presentations given by Cuvier. These volumes are usually credited to Cuvier. The five volumes have been placed on the Official List of Works Approved as Available for Zoological Nomenclature in Direction 32 (ICZN 1956a) with the endorsement that the Latin names in the systematic tables in volume 1 are to be treated as available names, in so far as they are provided with “indications” for the purposes of Article 25 through the citation of bibliographical references on page xix of the Introduction.

The five volumes were reissued in 1805 [GB]. A reedition of the reissue was published in Brussels in 1969 (n.v.). A second edition, corrected and enlarged, was issued in nine volumes in Paris, 1835–1846 [GB, MCZ]. A third edition, consisting of the first three volumes of the second edition (Smith 1993: 172), was issued in Brussels, 1836–1840 [GB].

An English translation of the first two volumes of the series was issued in London, 1802, under the title “Lectures on comparative anatomy” (Smith 1993: 172). The tables were apparently published separately as “Synoptic tables of zoology, exhibiting a classification of animals, according to their internal structure” (Smith 1993: 173). A German translation of the first two volumes appeared in Braunschweig, 1801–1802, under the title “Vorlesungen über vergleichende Anatomie von G. Cüvier” (Smith 1993: 173).

Despite the date on the title page, this book seems to have been released only in 1872, apparently interrupted by the War of 1870 (Rowland-Brown 1915: 271). Only the first fascicle was issued. One new species of Coleoptera is described in this work, Larinus leuzeae (p. 109).

Fabricius, Johann Christian (Tønder, Sønderjylland, Denmark: 7 January 1745 – 3 March 1808: Kiel, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany). Danish entomologist and economist; at the age of 17, sent by his father to Uppsala and for the next two years studied under Linnaeus which profoundly influenced him; travelled across Europe for the next few years, attending lectures, studying collections, and collecting insects; returned to Copenhagen in 1769 and was appointed professor of economics at the University; accepted the professorship of natural history, economy and finance at Kiel in 1775; most specimens of Fabricius’ collection are now at the Zoologisk Museum, University of Copenhagen.

In Opinion 516, the ICZN determined that the date of publication of this work is “Easter Monday, 17th April 1775.” The ICZN decision is based on Fabricius’ own statement (see Hope 1845: ix) that the book appeared at the Leipzig Easter Book Fair in 1775. Evenhuis (2014a: 4) pointed out that the Fair was in fact presented on 7 May 1775.

This book is sometimes dated 1776 but considering the date of the preliminaries, I agree with many bibliographers that it was probably published in 1777. Percheron (1837: 106) mentioned a second edition published in 1790 in Kiel but this could not be corroborated in this study (see also Hagen 1862: 220).

A French translation was published in Paris, 1802, under the title “Voyage en Norwège, avec des observations sur l’histoire naturelle et l’économie, traduit de l’Allemand de Jean-Chrétien Fabricius” [GB]. A Dutch translation was issued in Amsterdam, 1781, under the title “Reize naar Noorwegen, nevens aanmerkingen uit de natuurlijke historie en oeconomie” (n.v.).

According to Evenhuis (1997a: 246), this work was also issued in 1780 in the second volume of Bibliothek der neuesten Reisebeschreibungen (n.v.).

Tom. II. 494 pp. [DP: 1781 (title page)26, May 1782 (Allg Verz Bücher), 28 September 1782 (Gött Anz)]. This volume does not pertain to Coleoptera except that the “Appendix specierum nuper detectarum” (pp. 495–510), which contains the description of several new species, including 31 species of beetles, is often bound with it. Fabricius, in his autobiography (see Hope 1845: xi), mentioned that his Systema insectorum appeared in 1782. So likely the second volume was published in 1782 despite the title page bears the date 1781.

Appendix specierum nuper detectarum. Pp. 495–510. [DP: 28 September 1782 (Gött Anz)]. The Göttingische gelehrte Anzeigen noticed on 28 September 1782 the publication of the second tome with 510 pages, indicating that this appendix was included. However, the second tome is often cited as originally published with only 494 pages (e.g., Hagen 1862: 220; Evenhuis 1997a: 247) and at least one copy seen [GB] had only the first 494 pages. Possibly two different printings were done on different dates, one without the appendix, the other with it. I have not seen notification for the Appendix synonymorum (pp. 511–514 [numbered [111]–114]) and the Index generum (pp. 515–517) which are often also bound with the second tome.

The entire work consists of two volumes issued in 1787 on different dates. The title of the second volume is different from that of the first and for that reason is listed separately (see next entry).

This volume does not pertain to beetles except for the Appendix (pp. 375–382) where 21 new species of beetles are described.

Tom. I. Pars II. 538 pp. [DP: n.d. (title page), in or before December 1792 (see remark below), 4 May 1793 (Gött Anz), 15 May 1793 (Allg Lit Ztg)]. As discussed by Löbl and Smetana (2011: 21), Hellwig (1792: 408) cited the correct page and number for the genus Lyctus in the second part of Fabricius’ book, clearly suggesting that he had Fabricius’ book in front of him. The cover of the issue for Hellwig’s paper in the journal Neuestes Magazin für die Liebhaber der Entomologie bears the date “Dezember 1792.” In addition, the cover of the journal (available on GB) has a text dated “Stralsund im December 1792” which mentioned that the second part of Fabricius’ Entomologia systematica is published. Therefore, it is assumed that Fabricius’ second part of the first volume of his Entomologia systematica was published in or before December 1792.

Tom. IV. [6] + 472 + [5 (Index generum)] pp. [DP: 1794 (title page), 26 January 1795 (Gött Anz)]. Several Coleoptera species are described in the “Appendix specierum nuper detectarum” (pp. 435–462).

The entire work was published in six parts forming four volumes, 1792–1794. The Coleoptera are in the first and fourth volumes.

The “Index genervm et speciervm” in the second volume (pp. 611–687) was also issued separately in 1802 under the title “Index genervm et speciervm Systematis Elevtheratorvm” [GB]. Another edition of the index was issued in 1803, under the title “Index alphabeticvs in I.C. Fabricii Systema Elevtheratorvm genera et species continens,” by C.G. Fleckeisen in Helmstedt [CMLE].

A facsimile of Fabricius’ Systema Eleutheratorum was published in 1970 by Asher in Vaals.

Fabricius, Otto (Rudkøbing, Fyn, Denmark: 6 March 1744 – 20 May 1822: Copenhagen, Denmark). Danish clergyman, ethnographer and naturalist; at the age of 24 went to the west coast of Greenland to evangelize the Inuits and stayed for five and a half years, making observations on the habits of the Eskimos and the fauna; upon his return in 1773, appointed bishop in various places in Norway and Denmark, including Copenhagen from 1789 to the time of his death.

This work contains ten parts, each separately paginated, issued separately in 1882. The wrapper for the contribution of Fairmaire et al. was not seen during this study but it is probably dated June 1882 as noticed in the Bulletin bibliographique (p. 22) of volume 3 (sixième série) of the Annales de la Société Entomologique de France.

The second part of the sixth volume of the Mission scientifique du Cap Horn includes eight sections, each separately paginated. The title page of volume 6 (second part) bears the date of 1891, but the wrapper of the “Insectes” section (Coléoptères + Hémiptères + Névroptères + Lépidoptères + Diptères) has the date 1888. Woodward (1904: 603) and Derksen and Scheiding-Göllner (1968: 110) listed the publication date as 1887 but this date could not be confirmed by Evenhuis (1997a: 92) nor by myself. The date of “15 February 1888” listed for the publication of the “Insectes” section by Evenhuis (1997a: 92) and Low and Evenhuis (2012: 71, 73) and taken from the Bibliographie de la France is a lapsus for 25 February 1888.

The descriptions of the new Coleoptera species were first published in the Annales de la Société Entomologique de France (6) 5 [1885]: 33–70. A few changes were made in this fascicle: the name Brachymys Fairmaire, 1885 was changed to Pachymys and Hornius Fairmaire, 1885 to Hornibius.

This catalogue was included, with separate pagination, in the Revue d’Entomologie7 [1888]: 1–16; 8 [1889]: 17–32; 10(1): 33–40 [DP: January 1891 (title page)]; 10(2): 41–48 [DP: February 1891 (title page)]. It covers only the Cicindelidae, Carabidae, Dytiscidae, Gyrinidae, Micropeplidae and part of the Staphylinidae. Apparently no title page was issued for this publication; the title reported here is that given in the content of parts 1 and 2 of volume 10 of the Revue d’Entomologie. Three new family-group names are proposed in this work.

This work is an adaptation of the first edition of Linnaeus’ Systema Naturae published in 1735. The Coleoptera are on pages 74–76. The genera are briefly described and some have binominal specific names associated with them. Two Coleoptera genera, Notopeda (p. 74) and Buceros (p. 75), were not used again as valid names by Linnaeus in his 1758 version of the Systema Naturae28 or subsequent publications nor by any other authors after 1758 until Fée made them available. One of the genera, Notopeda, is listed and attributed to Fée (1830) in Sherborn’s (1928: 4419) Index Animalium and Neave’s (1940: 355) Nomenclator Zoologicus.

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. Hagen (1862: 235) mentioned a second edition issued in 1817 (n.v.).

The half-title page reads “Tabulae synopticae zoognosiae in usum auditorum editae. Cum tabulis aeneis.” The first edition of this work was issued in 1805 under the title “Tables synoptiques des animaux” (n.v.); the third edition was issued in 1813 (see next entry).

Evenhuis (1997a: 264) dated this book 1809; however, the copy on BHL is clearly dated 1808 and the dedication 15 November 1808 in the Julian calendar or 28 November 1808 in the Gregorian calendar.

[DP: 1820–1822 (title page; preface dated 25 March 1821 [JD], dedication dated 18 May 1822 [JD]), June 1823 (Allg Lit Ztg)]. According to Sherborn (1922a: liii), the plates were issued in 1820 and the text after May 1822. However, the volume was issued by livraison as expressed by Fischer von Waldheim (1820: 6). A report about this volume by Latreille (1822), read at the Academy of sciences on 12 November 1821, indicated that 13 plates (six on Coleoptera, one on Orthoptera, two on Nevroptera and four on Lepidoptera) were published; furthermore it is evident from the context that at least the first 36 pages were issued at that time.

According to Sherborn (1922a: liii) the plates were issued in 1823 and the text after November 1824. However, this volume and the following one were very likely issued in livraisons as for the first volume.

Auctoritate societatis Caesareae naturae scrutatorum Mosquensium, in lucem edita. Tomus III. Cicindeletas et Carabicorum partem continens, cum XVIII tabulis aeneis. viii + [1] + 314 pp. + 18 pls. [DP: 1825–1828 (title page; approuved for publication 10 November 1828 [JD])]. Some of the plates were available as early as 1824. Indeed, in the second volume of the work, issued in 1824, Fischer von Waldheim stated (pp. 263–264) that plates I–IX of the third volume have been engraved; he also listed the species names for each plate. I have not been able to find any indication for the engraving dates of the remaining plates. The copy of this volume on GB has another title page, dated 1825, which reads “Entomographie de la Russie. Tome III.”

The entire series consists of five volumes, the fourth one, dealing with Orthoptera, was published in volume 8 of the Nouveaux Mémoires de la Société Impériale des Naturalistes de Moscou, 1846, and the fifth one, dealing with Lepidoptera and authored by Fischer von Waldheim and Eduard Eversmann, was published in 1851 by Semen, Moscow.

Another title page, also dated 1821, reads “Genres des insectes publiés au nom de la Société Impériale des Naturalistes.” Sherborn (1922a: liii) mentioned that this work was published after September 1821. This is probably an error originating from the date on the recto of the title page which reads “15 Septembris. 1820” (not 1821).

This publication is part of the first volume of the Entomographia imperii Russici as indicated by Fischer von Waldheim in his preface of the Entomographia (p. [v]) and is usually bound with it.

This booklet contains a letter addressed to Henri Pander by Fischer von Waldheim (pp. 3–4) and a section entitled “Catalogus Animalium in itinere inde ab Orenburg ad Bokaram usque collectorum” (pp. 5–15).

Several Coleoptera are described in this publication but many of them were already available from Fischer von Waldheim’s plates of the Entomographia imperii Russici published in 1820.

This work was published in two parts, issued simultaneously, with continuous pagination. The Coleoptera are in the first part on pages 1–174 and 176. The book was reissued in 1805 by Méquignon in Paris (n.v.) as noted in the Journal Général de la Littérature de France 8: 98. All new taxa validated in this work are attributed to Geoffroy, as discussed by Ganglbauer and Heyden (1906: 301–302) and Cameron (1988).

Menke (1988) pointed out that this work is not consistently binomial and that under the Code [Article 11.4] the names are not available. There are about 1690 species described and named in both parts. Of these names only four are probably not binominal (Miguel A. Alonso-Zarazaga, personal communication): one in the first part (Psylla chermes buxi, p. 223) and three in the second part (Phaloena pavonia major, p. 257; Phaloena pavonia media, p. 257; Phaloena pavonia minor, p. 258). Sherborn (1902) retained one of these names, Psylla chermes-buxi (p. 200).

This work was suppressed for nomenclatural purposes by the ICZN (1954b) but eventually removed from the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Works in Zoological Nomenclature (ICZN 1994). The Commission ruled that the following generic names of Coleoptera were made available from this work: Altica, Anthrenus, Anthribus, Bostrichus, Cerocoma, Copris, Crioceris, Cryptocephalus, Diaperis, Galeruca, Gyrinus, Hydrophilus, Notoxus, Omalisus, Platycerus, Prionus, Ptilinus, Pyrochroa, and Stenocorus. The generic names Cistela and Rhinomacer were suppressed for the purposes of the Principle of Priority but not for those of the Principle of Homonymy and Byrrhus, Cucujus, Melolontha, Peltis, and Tritoma were suppressed for the purposes of both the Principle of Priority and the Principle of Homonymy.

The third volume is a reissue of the Monographie du genre Clytus, first published in 1836–1837 by Laporte and Gory [q.v.], dated 1841 where the author’s names are inverted. The content and dates of publication of this volume are discussed under the entry for Laporte and Gory, 1835–1838.

Although the title page indicated that Gory was the sole author of this volume, Gory (1841: 392) himself mentioned that by an unfortunate error the name of his friend was omitted on the title page [“par erreur qui m’est entièrement étrangère et contre laquelle j’ai déjà réclamé, le nom de mon collaborateur et ami se trouve accidentellement omis].”A corrected title page was eventually issued with Gory and Laporte as the authors.

The entire series consists of 16 volumes, 1827–1835. These two volumes consist of a translation, with additions, of Latreille (1829) “Le règne animal distribué d’après son organisation” and form volumes 14 and 15 of “The animal kingdom arranged in conformity with its organization.” According to Freeman (1980: 100), two printings were done: the quarto copies have uncolored plates on India paper and the Demy octavo copies have colored plates. As indicated on the title page, the new genera and species are to be attributed to George Robert Gray [1808–1872]. The Coleoptera are on pages 170–570 of the first volume and pages 1–168 of the second volume.

The entire work consists of three fascicles, sequentially paginated, issued in 1763, 1764 and 1781 (Wheeler 1956: 152). The arthropods make up the entire second fascicle. Many species are described but no specific names are provided, only generic ones. The entire work has been rejected for nomenclatural purposes and placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Works in Zoological Nomenclature (Opinion 261, ICZN 1954d). Meuschen published an index to this work in 1781, containing binominal names to all the animals described, and the index has also been rejected by the Commission in the same Opinion. The index, unnumbered, is usually included at the end of the third volume.

The entire expedition report was published under the direction of the French botanist and explorer Charles Paulus Bélanger [1805–1881] and divided in three sections: historique, zoologie, and botanique. The Zoologie section consists of one volume of text and one volume of 40 plates, both with the date 1834 on the title page. The text and plates of the zoology volume were published in eight livraisons, 1831–1834 (Evenhuis 1997a: 79). The insectes section comprises the entire livraison 7 which was recorded on 31 August 1833 by the Bibliographie de la France36. The livraison consisted of five feuilles of text and five plates. It is assumed that the five plates are those dealing with insects although this cannot be confirmed at this time.

The Coleoptera are on pages 481–494 and several new species are described.

Baillière with the title page reading “Genera des insectes ou exposition détaillée de tous les caractères propres a chacun des genres de cette classe d’animaux. Ordres et familles. Avec 60 planches gravées et coloriées” [GB]. The title page is also dated “1835–1838.”

The following Coleoptera genera were treated: Therates (no. 1 of livr. 1); Evaniocera (no. 2 of livr. 1); Carabus (no. 1 of livr. 2); Cybister (no. 2 of livr. 2); Emus (no. 1 of livr. 3); Psiloptera (no. 2 of livr. 3); Oxysternus (no. 3 of livr. 3); Hydrous (no. 4 of livr. 3); Coprobius (no. 5 of livr. 3); Adesma (no. 6 of livr. 3); Helaeus (no. 7 of livr. 3); Cassida (no. 1 of livr. 4); Heilipus (no. 2 of livr. 4); Trogossita (no. 3 of livr. 4); Cucujus (no. 4 of livr. 4); Sternotomis (no. 5 of livr. 4); Pselaphacus (no. 6 of livr. 4); Coccinella (no. 1 of livr. 5); Endomychus (no. 2 of livr. 5); Calopus (no. 1 of livr. 6); Crioceris (no. 2 of livr. 6); Briaxis (no. 3 of livr. 6). The first three genera were authored by Guérin-Méneville, all the other ones by Achille Rémi Percheron.

Mannerheim (1838) gave a lengthly review of the content of the first five livraisons and Evenhuis (2011a: 176–183) presented an analysis of the taxa and authorship depicted on each plate. The new taxa described in this work are: Evaniocera Guérin, 1835; Emus nebulosus Percheron, 1835; Psiloptera tucumana Percheron, 1835; Hydrous senegalensis Percheron, 1835; Adesmia spinifera Percheron, 1835; Cassida nitidula Percheron, 1836 [spelled nilidula in the text]; Heilipus loricatus Percheron, 1836; Trogossita metallica Percheron, 1836 [spelled metellica in the text]; Sternotomis Percheron, 1836; Sternotomis aper Percheron, 1836; Pselaphacus Percheron, 1836; Pselaphacus nigropunctatus Percheron, 1836; Endomychus bivittatus Percheron, 1836.

The date on the title page pertains to the first year of publication of the plates (see Guérin-Méneville 1830–1831). The half-title page reads “Première division. Crustacés, arachnides et insectes, par F.C. Guérin Méneville.” The Coleoptera are on pages 57–152.

The expedition, which left Toulon in the Var department on 11 August 1822, was sponsored by the French government and had as its chief objective the collection of scientific data, and to report on the possibility of establishing a penal colony in Western Australia. The commander was Louis Isidore Duperrey [1786–1865].

The text constitutes livraisons 46–50 of the work. The previous 45 livraisons contain plates only (see Guérin-Méneville 1829–1837). Many of the new taxa proposed in the text were made available earlier from the plates. The text contains 919 pages overall and each sections, i.e. mammals, birds, fishes, etc., are separately paginated. The title page of the insect section is dated 1829–1838.

This volume constitutes livraisons 9 and 10 of the expedition report. There is no date on the book but the insect section was recorded in the notice of entomological works for 1849 by Schaum (1850: 149–150). There is no indication as to the contribution of each of the authors listed on the title page. However Guérin-Méneville, being the only entomologist of the group of four, is assumed to be the author of the section “Insectes.” The plates do not have scientific names.

The entire expedition report consists of six volumes of text and three atlases of 202 plates (72 colored) issued in 46 livraisons (12 of text and 34 of plates), 1845–1851. It was divided into four parts: Relation historique (volumes 1 and 2 + one atlas of 59 plates); Itinéraire; description et dictionnaire géographiques; physique et métérologie; statistique; ethnologie; linguistique; archéologie (volume 3); Botanique (volumes 4 and 5 + one atlas of 103 plates); Zoologie (volume 6 + one atlas of 40 plates).

The sole copy I saw of this book had no publication date but the date of 1891 is generally attributed to it (e.g., Blackwelder 1957: 1106; Derksen and Scheiding-Göllner 1965: 236; Peck 2005: 7). However, as indicated on the wrappers of the issues of the Anales de la Real Academia de Ciencias Medicas, fisicas y naturales de La Habana (Revista Cientifica) for the years 1892 to 1896 (tomes 29–32), this work was originally published under the title “Contribucíon al estudio de los Coléopteros de la isla de Cuba” as separate page gatherings (“pliego aparte”) to the journal. Unfortunately, no information was found to fix the dates of publication of the various parts.

The entire work consists of three volumes, 1881–[1896]. Only the third one deals with Coleoptera.

The title given is that of the official and first issue. The top of the title page reads “Special session, March, 1851. Senate. Executive. No. 3.” Two trade issues were also printed in 1852, shortly after the official issue, under the title “An expedition to the valley of the Great Salt Lake of Utah: including a description of its geography, natural history, and minerals, and an analysis of its waters; with an authentic account of the Mormon settlement. Illustrated by numerous beautiful plates, from drawings taken on the spot. Also, a reconnoissance of a new route through the Rocky Mountains, and two large and accurate maps of that region” by Lippincott, Grambo & Co. [GB], one of them with the addition of “Sampson Low Son & Co., London” representing the distributor of the work in England. All three issues are identical except for their title-pages (Dorr et al. 2003: 319). A second, revised edition was published in 1853 [GB] by Robert Amstrong, Washington, with the same title as the official issue except for “Printed by order of House of Representatives of the United States.” It contains 495 pages and 57 plates and according to Coville (1896: 138) there are changes in the text from the first printing in the appendices, some of which have nomenclatural incidences. A reissue by Lippincott, Grambo & Co. of the trade issue of 1852 was released in 1855 [GB]. The new title page differs solely in the change of the date from 1852 to 1855. A reprint of the official issue was released in 1988 by the Smithsonian Institution Press with an introduction by D.D. Fowler.

The new Coleoptera taxa described in this work are: Panagaeus distinctus (p. 373), Carabus finitimus (p. 373), Cotalpa granicollis (p. 374; pl. 9, fig. 11), Euphoria cernii (p. 374; pl. 9, fig. 10), Hydrochus foveatus (p. 375), Philonthus comptus (p. 375), Eleodes cognata (p. 376), Nyctobates (Iphthinus) intermedia (p. 376), Horia stansburii (p. 377), Meloe parvus (p. 377), Henous (p. 377) and Henous techanus (p. 377; pl. 9, figs 12–14).

The colophon on the last page reads “Leipzig, gedruckt den Joh. Gottl. Immanuel Breitkopf. 1761” and may be the reason why the date of 1761 is given to this publication in some bibliographies. This work contains descriptions of new species, including the beetles Curculio cypri (p. 449), Chrysomela cichorii (p. 449–450) and Cerambyx smirnensis (p. 450–451), attributed to Linnaeus since it is stated in the preface of the work that Linnaeus was responsible for the taxonomy and nomenclature. However, these names are not available for nomenclatural purposes because the work has been placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Works in Zoological Nomenclature (Direction 32, ICZN 1956a).

This work is a German translation by Th. H. Gadebusch of “Frederic Hasselquists M.D. Iter Palaestinum, eller resa til Heliga Landet, förrättad ifrån år 1749 til 1752, med beskrifningar, rön, anmärkningar, öfver de märkvärdigaste naturalier, på Hennes Kongl. Maj:ts befallning, utgifven af Carl Linnaeus” published in Holmiae [= Stockholm] in May 1757 [GB]. The original edition is also not available because it was published before the starting point of zoological nomenclature. It was placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Works in Zoological Nomenclature (Direction 32, ICZN 1956a).

An abridged English translation of Hasselquist’s work was published in London, 1766, under the title “Voyages and travels in the Levant; in the years 1749, 50, 51, 52. Containing observations in natural history, physick, agriculture, and commerce: particularly on the Holy Land, and the natural history of the scriptures. Written originally in the Swedish language, by the late Frederick Hasselquist, M.D. Published, by Order of her present Majesty the Queen of Sweden by Charles Linnaeus” [GB]. This edition has not been placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Works in Zoological Nomenclature and so the new species are available from this book. An abridged French translation was issued in Paris, 1769, under the title “Voyages dans le Levant, dans les années 1749, 50, 51 & 52. Contenant des observations sur l’histoire naturelle, la médecine, l’agriculture & le commerce, & particulierement sur l’histoire naturelle de la Terre Sainte. Par Frédéric Hasselquist.

This work was published anonymously. It was attributed to Johann Friedrich Ludwig Hausmann by Saalfeld (1820: 365), Carus and Engelmann (1861: 486), and Hagen (1862: 349). However, Evenhuis (1997a: 348–349) argued that the book was written by Friedrich Karl Hausmann [1767–1822], not J.F.L. Hausmann because he would have been only 16 years old at the time if he was the author.

This work was issued as a Beiheft (supplement) to volume 14 [1870] of the Berliner Entomologische Zeitschrift. It is divided into four parts: the first one (pp. 1–56) is an account by Heyden of his voyage through Spain and Portugal; the second one (pp. 57 [75 in error]–176) contains the descriptions of several new genera and 141 new species by the author and several members of the Berlin Entomological Society; the third one (pp. 177–183) is a revision of the European species of Hymenoplia; the fourth one contains a revision of the curculionid genera Rhytirhinus and Gronops (pp. 185–206) and a revision of the genus Sphenophorus (pp. 207–210) by Ernest Allard. The section by Allard was first issued in 1869 [q.v.].

Evenhuis (1997a: 364) mentioned, without qualification, that this work was not published until 1871. However, Rye (1871: 233–234 under Allard and 239–240 under Heyden) recorded the entire publication in his review of the entomological literature for the year 1870 while Brauer (1871: 180) noticed pages 1–176 in his review for 1870.

This catalogue of the beetles of Siberia, including also those from Turan, Turkistan and the area around the Chinese border, was issued in three parts as supplements to the Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift: 1: (pp. 1–96) in or before October 1880 (date of publication of page iv of volume 24 of the Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift where these pages are noted); 2: (pp. i–xxiv, 97–112) in or before October 1881 (date of publication of page 6 of volume 25 of the Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift where this part is noted); 3: (pp. 113–224) after 15 February 1882 (date on page 221), March 1882 (Nat Nov), April 1882 (Humboldt 1: 234). The title page is dated 1880–1881.

According to the preface (see p. [2]), Lucas von Heyden wrote the text from Cicindelidae to Gyrinidae (pp. 1–32) and Tenebrionidae to Pythidae (pp. 125–146), Eduard Eppelsheim that on Staphylinidae (pp. 37–64), Edmund Reitter that from Pselaphidae to Cisidae (pp. 64–125), Ludwig Ganglbauer that on Cerambycidae (pp. 183–191), and Julius Weise that on Curculionoidea (pp. 146–182), Chrysomelidae (pp. 191–206) and Coccinellidae (pp. 206–209). There is no indication as to who wrote the section Hydrophilidae to Heteroceridae (pp. 32–37).

According to the preface (see p. iv), Ludwig Ganglbauer wrote the text on Carabidae (pp. 1–58), Lucas von Heyden that on Dytiscidae to Heteroceridae (pp. 58–77) and that on Cebrionidae to Oedemeridae (pp. 210–270), Eduard Eppelsheim that on Staphylinidae (pp. 77–122), Edmund Reitter that on Pselaphidae to Elateridae (pp. 123–210) and that on Cerambycidae (pp. 337–355) and Julius Weise that on Curculionoidea (pp. 270–337) and that to Chrysomelidae and Coccinellidae (pp. 355–392). Louis Bedel and Albert Fauvel also contributed to the redaction of the work but there is no indication as to what they did precisely.

The copies seen have two columns per page but some, containing vi + 812 pages, were printed with one column per page (Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyall 1999: 230). A second edition of this work was issued in 1906 in Berlin.

Nachtrag I. 217 pp. [DP: 1893–1895 (Heyden 1896: 3)]. Although the title page is dated 1893, this work was issued in parts by the Deutschen Entomologischen Gesellschaft. I have not found dates of publication except that the Société Entomologique de France received pages 97–144 on 27 March 1895, 145–176 on 13 November 1895 and 177–217 on 10 June 1896. The whole publication was noted in February 1896 (Nat Nov).

Nachtrag II. 84 pp. [DP: 1896 (title page; preface dated 31 October 1895)]. This work was probably also issued in parts, 1896–1898. The Zoological Record recorded pages 1–32 in 1896 and pages 49–84 in 1898 and the Société Entomologique de France received pages 1–32 on 24 February 1897 and 33–48 on 13 October 1897.

Nachtrag III. 24 pp. [DP: 1898 (title page; last page dated end of August 1898)].

This publication consists of a catalogue of the beetles of Siberia, including also those of the eastern region of the Caspian Sea, from Turkmenistan, Turkistan, north Tibet and the Amur region.

The title page is dated 1908. The publisher of the first ten Lieferungen was Ernst Heyne (Friedländer 1908: 63) and G. Reusche for the following ones. However, the cover of the book reads “Die exotischen Käfer in Wort und Bild von A. Heyne u. Prof. Taschenberg” and the publisher and place of publication is “J.F. Schreiber, Esslingen & München.”

The first 12 Lieferungen were authored by Alexander Heyne (Blackwelder 1957: 1117); based on the title page, the remaining ones were apparently authored by Otto Taschenberg [1854–1922] alone although Blackwelder (1957: 1117) credited them to Heyne and Taschenberg.

The entire work consists of three volumes, issued in 1773. The Coleoptera are on pages 38–58 of the third volume. The species are described but not named. The genera are also described and have scientific names, one of them, Hemisphaeria (p. 42) has not been used subsequently. However, since the author did not applied the Principle of Binominal Nomenclature in this work, the name is unavailable (ICZN 1999: Article 11.4).

The first edition of this work was published in 1748–1752 [GB], also in three volumes.

Tome premier. cclxxvi + 140 pp. + pls i–xv, 1–43. [DP: 1857 (title page)]. This volume was issued in 30 livraisons (corresponding to livraisons 14–44 of the entire work): 14–26: (pp. 1–100) 1855 (Sherborn’s notes51); 27–30 (pp. 101–140), 1856 (Sherborn’s notes); 31–44: (i–cclxxvi) 1856 (Sherborn’s notes).

Tome deuxième. 285 + [2] pp. + pls 1–67. [DP: 1857–1859 (title page)]. This volume was issued in 28 livraisons (livraisons 45–73 of the entire work). According to Sherborn’s notes and Tottenham (1949: 360), the dates on the wrappers are as follows: livr. 45–47 (pp. 1–32) 1856; 48–57 (pp. 33–128) 185752; 58–67 (pp. 129–232) 1858; 68–73 (pp. 233–288) 1859. Livraisons 48–49 (pp. 33–48) were noticed on 5 September 1857 (Bibl Fr) and livraisons 59–60 (pp. 137–160) on 11 September 1858 (Bibl Fr). On the other hand, Reinwald (1859: 103; 1860: 109) noted that livraisons 50–60 (pp. 49–160) were published in 1858 and livraisons 61–73 (pp. 161–288) in 1859. Gerstaecker (1858: 255) mentioned that livraisons 45–54 (pp. 1–96 + 28 pls) were issued in 1857. Based on the evidences gathered during this study, the following year dates should be retained in my opinion: livr. 45–54 (pp. 1–96) 1857; livr. 55–67 (pp. 97–232) 1858; livr. 68–73 (pp. 233–288) 1859.

Tome troisième. 463 + [1] pp. + pls 1–100. [DP: 1859–1863 (title page)]. The third volume of the series was issued in 46 livraisons (livraisons 74–120 of the entire work), the first 43 (74–117) were authored by Jacquelin du Val, the remaining three (118–120) by L. Fairmaire [q.v.]. According to Sherborn’s notes, the date on the wrappers are as follows: livr. 74–87: (pp. 1–136) 1859; 88–102: (pp. 137–272) 1860; 103–110: (pp. 273–352) 1861; 111–117: (pp. 353–423) 1863. On the other hand, livraisons 74–76 were noticed as published in the year 1859 (Reinwald 1860: 109), livraisons 77–91 in the year 1860 (Reinwald 1861:110), livraisons 92–106 in the year 1861 (Reinwald 1862: 118), livraisons 107–111 in the year 1862 (Reinwald 1863: 117), and livraisons 112–118 in the year 1863 (Reinwald 1864: 117). Gerstaecker (1862: 328) mentioned that livraisons 103–111 (including plates 66–85) were issued in 1861.

Tome quatrième. Pp. 1–95 + pls 1–30. [DP: 1854 (title page)]. The first 95 pages of this tome were authored by Jacquelin du Val, the remaining ones by L. Fairmaire, 1864–1868 [q.v.]. These 95 pages forms the first 12 livraisons of the entire work: 1–4: (pp. 1–32) 1854 (Sherborn’s notes), 11 January 1854 (Soc Ent Fr [p. v, Jacquelin du Val and Migneaux mentioned that the first four livraisons are published]); 5–6: (pp. 33–48) 1854 (Sherborn’s notes), 27 September 1854 (Soc Ent Fr [p. lxiv, Deyrolle announced that six livraisons have been published and that the next one will be issued only on 1 January 1855]); 7–12: (pp. 49–95) 1855 (Sherborn’s notes).

Catalogue. 284 pp. [with only pp. 1–200 and 237–284 numbered]. The catalogue was issued along with the livraisons of the Manuel entomologique with separate pagination. The following pages only can be dated with confidence: (pp. [201–236]) February 1855 (footnote on p. 42); (pp. 1–32) November 1855 (footnote on p. 42); (pp. 33–42) January 1856 (footnote on p. 42); (pp. 43–52) 1 May 1856 (p. 47, 52); (pp. 53–84) 1857 (wrapper of livraison 54, fide Sherborn’s notes). The title page bears the date 1868. The following new taxa are described in the catalogue: Bembidium flavoposticatum Jacquelin du Val, 1855 (p. 31), Hydroporus delarouzei Jacquelin du Val, 1856 (p. 34), Stenus novator Jacquelin du Val, 185853 (p. 74), Saprinus cribellaticollis Jacquelin du Val, 1858 (p. 99), Ammoecius pyrenaeus Jacquelin du Val, 1859 (p. 130), Tribolium confusum Jacquelin du Val, 186254 (p. 181), Chitona cretica Fairmaire, 1863 (p. 199), Cataphorticus Jacquelin du Val, 1855 (p.

At least two nomina nova, Feronia crenatipennis Jacquelin du Val, 1855 (p. 16) and Apion denominandum Jacquelin du Val, 1855 (p. [206]), are proposed.

The plates were issued along with the livraisons of the Manuel entomologique. They are either attached to the respective tome or bounded separately, with separate title pages reading besides the title “Tome premier Atlas; Tome deuxième Atlas; Tome troisième Atlas; Tome quatrième Atlas” and dated 1868. Only the following plates could be dated with confidence at this time based on Sherborn’s notes: plates 1–18 (vol. 4) 1854; 19–30 (vol. 4) 1855; 31–34 (vol. 1) 1855; 35–41 (vol. 1) 1856; 1–16 (vol. 2) 1856; 17–33 (vol. 2) 1857. Scientific names are provided on the plates.

Arthus Bertrand, Paris. xxxii + 371 pp. [+ 20 associated pls]. (4to-text; Folio-plates) [DP: 1856 (title page; advertencia dated 20 September 1857; p. [350] dated October 1857)] BHL

The entire series was published in Spanish, in 4to, in 12 volumes between 1837 and 1857, and in French (see next entry). The Spanish version was issued in 190 fascicles (Hidalgo 1868: 258) and each fascicle usually consisted of 32 to 40 pages of text and four plates (Aguayo 1946: 158). Collation and dates of publication for each fascicle are desired.

Considering the date for the advertencia and that on page [350] it looks like the date of 1856 on the title page of tome 7 is an error for 1857 as mentioned by Woodward (1913: 1781). However Aguayo (1946: 174) argued that most likely the first fascicles of tome 7 of the Spanish version came out, as for the French version, in 1856 and that the volume was finished in 1857. Evenhuis (1997b: 679) treated the Spanish and French versions as published simultaneously, until further evidence is found.

Volume 8 is the Atlas de Zoologia and its title page is dated 1855. The Coleoptera are on plates “Articulata (Insecta)” 6–11. Scientific names are provided for the insects illustrated on each plate. Until the dates of publication and collation are established for the fascicles, it is not possible to determine if the plates were really issued before the text.

Many new species are described and illustrated in this work and, based on the evidence available at this time, I believe it is preferable to date them from 1857 as done by others (e.g., Low et al. 2013: 115).

This edition was issued in 80 fascicles forming 11 volumes in 8vo and 9 atlases in folio (Lorenz 1869: 163).

Blackwelder (1957: 1139) stated, without qualification, that pages 1–136 of Jacquelin du Val’s section were published in 1856 and pages 137–328 in 1857. However, this could not be confirmed in this study. In fact it seems that pages 1–136 referred to by Blackwelder concern the Spanish version.

According to Evenhuis (1997b: 679), livraisons 78–80 form volume 7 of the series.

The half title-page reads “Fauna Boreali-Americana. Part the fourth and last. The insects. by the Rev. William Kirby.

The entire Fauna Boreali-Americana was published in four volumes, 1829–1837, and authored by John Richardson [1786–1865], William Swainson and Williams Kirby. Kirby was the sole author of the fourth volume. According to Graesse (1863: 20), this volume was also issued, 1837, by E. Bohn in London, under the title “Entomologia Boreali-Americana or a natural history of the insects of North America, most specially the provinces under the Dominion of Great-Britain, containing descriptions of the objects collected in the late northern expeditions under the command of Capt. Sir J. Franklin; complemented by an enumeration of all those taken in the arctic regions by Capt. Parry, Sir J. Ross and Back, as well as those described by O. Fabricius in his Fauna Grönlandica” (n.v.). A facsimile of the book was issued in 1978 by Arno Press, New York, under the title “Fauna Boreali-Americana or the zoology of the northern parts of British America. Part four. Insects. John Richardson, William Swainson and William Kirby” [CMLE].

The descriptions of the insects were reissued, along with occasional remarks of Charles James Stewart Bethune, under the title “Insects of the northern parts of British America. Compiled by Rev. C. J. S. Bethune from Kirby’s Fauna Boreali-Americana: Insecta” in The Canadian Entomologist volumes 2–8, 1870–1876.

Each part consists of unnumbered pages of text and ten plates. These decads form the third part of the zoology section of Ehrenberg’s “Symbolae physicae” (Bauer 2000: 11). Klug alone wrote the five decads relating to insects while Ehrenberg wrote the text for the other three zoological sections (Mammalia, Aves and Animalia evertebrata). A list of all insects described by Klug in the Symbolae Physicae was published by Baker (1997a: 181–193).

The specimens described by Klug originated from the natural history expedition of the German Friedrich Wilhelm Hemprich [1796–1825] and Christian Gottfried Ehrenberg [1795–1876] to Egypt and the Middle East during the period 1820–1825.

The entire report of the trip was published in four volumes, 1840–1848, the fourth one in two parts (Abtheilungen) continuously paginated, the first one (pp. 1–246) issued in 1842 (title page). The second Abtheilung was issued in two sections, with pages 247–581 published in 1844 (title page) and pages 587–865 in 1848 (title page). The Coleoptera are on pages 497–564 and plates 23–28. Hagen (1862: 430) dated Kollar and Redtenbacher’s contribution 1842, Horn and Schenkling (1928b: 656) 1848.

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.

This work was also issued in Denkschriften der kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften (mathematisch-naturwissenschaftliche Classe) 1: 42–53 [DP: 1850 (title page)]. Volume 1 of this journal was published in two Abtheilungen. The contribution by Kollar and Redtenbacher was issued in the first Abtheilung and this section was published in 1849 (Stefan 1876: 208) and the second one in 1850. The date of 1850 is usually attributed to this work (e.g., Löbl and Smetana 2003: 744; 2010: 842; 2013: 628).

This work treats the Coleoptera (pp. 4–9) and the Lepidoptera (pp. 10–12). Several new species are described; all those on beetles are credited to Redtenbacher and those on Lepidoptera to Kollar.

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. Aigner-Abafi (1897), in the October 1897 issue of Rovartani Lapok, discussed the parts of the series Fauna regni Hungariae that were published and did not mentioned Kuthy’s contribution. Kuthy’s part was mentioned by the same author only the following year (Aigner-Abafi 1898: 252). Finally Kuthy’s section was recorded by Seidlitz (1900: 126) in his review of the entomological literature for the year 1898.

This work was reissued in 1900 as part of Arthropoda volume of the Fauna Regni Hungariae [GB].

This publication is almost an integral reproduction of sections published by LaFerté-Sénectère in livraisons 4–9 of Guérin-Méneville’s Species et iconographie générique des animaux articulés, 1843–1849 [q.v.]. The “préliminaires” (pp. ix–xxii), most of the “supplément” (pp. 297–305), and the “tabula analytica” (pp. 307–321) are new. As noted by Schaum (1849: 164) and Chandler (2000: 434), this work although dated 1848 on the title page was issued in 1849.

Chandler (2000: 437) determined that Laferté-Sénectère’s treatment of the Anthicidae in livraisons 4–9 of the Species et iconographie générique des animaux articulés [q.v.] should take precedence for priority of names over this publication.

The entire series was issued in 52 livraisons. Each livraison came with five plates and one or two feuilles of text forming four volumes of text and three volumes of plates. The first three volumes of text and the corresponding plates, livraisons 1–42, were authored by Laporte and Gory (volumes 1 and 3) and Gory and Laporte (volume 2). Volume 4, livraisons 43–52, was authored by Gory alone, 1840–1841 [q.v.].

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 1 gives a list of the taxa treated in Laporte & Gory (1835–38, tome 1) and Gory & Laporte (1839–40, tome 2) along with the number of species treated, number of pages and plates, and dates of publication reported by Nelson and Bellamy (1993: 298)62 and those found in this research.

This work was issued as livraisons 8–11 of Laporte and Gory’s “Histoire naturelle et iconographie des insectes Coléoptères, publiée par monographies séparées” as listed on page 6 of the first volume of the series. These livraisons were noticed as follows: 8: July–September 1836 (Soc Ent Fr [Annales, p. liv]), 24 October 1836 (Acad Sci Fr); 9: 24 October 1836 (Acad Sci Fr); 10: 21 December 1836 (Soc Ent Fr), 24 December 1836 (Bibl Fr), 20 February 1837 (Acad Sci Fr); 11: 15 February 1837 (Soc Ent Fr), 20 February 1837 (Acad Sci Fr). The content of each livraison is desired.

This work is dated 1835 by Agassiz (1850: 200) and Hagen (1862: 450) but Sherborn (1922a: lxxviii) believed it was issued in 1836. A copy (titled “travail manuscrit”) was presented to the Académie des Sciences on 14 December 1835 (Anonymous 1835: 472) for which Duméril (1836) read a report at the academy meeting of 4 January 1836 for approval. The work was probably printed in 1835 but accessible to the public only during 1836.

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.

The half-title page reads “Histoire naturelle des animaux articulés, annelides, crustacés, arachnides, myriapodes et insectes.Engelmann (1846: 527) indicated that these two volumes were originally issued in livraisons, 1835–1840. I found no evidence to support this63. The plates of this work are uncolored. These two volumes were reprinted in 1850 in Paris under the title “Histoire naturelle des insectes Coléoptères; avec une introduction renfermant l’anatomie et la physiologie des animaux articulés, par M. Brullé; ouvrage accompagné de 81 [46 for tome 2] planches gravées sur acier et coloriées au pinceau avec le plus grand soin, représentant plus de 500 sujets” [BHL] with continuously numbered and colored plates.

The Histoire naturelle des animaux articulés, annelides, crustacés, arachnides, myriapodes et insectes was issued in four volumes, the first two dealing with Coleoptera, the third one by Emile Blanchard with Orthoptera, Neuroptera, Hemiptera, Hymenoptera, Lepidoptera and Diptera, and the fourth one by Pierre Hippolyte Lucas with arachnids and myriapods.

Latreille, Pierre André (Brives-la-Gaillarde, Corrèze, France: 29 November 1762 – 6 February 1833: Paris, France). French naturalist; illegitimate son of general Jean Baptiste Joseph Sahuguet d’Amarzit, baron of Espagnac; moved to Paris at the age of 16 to pursue his studies and eventually obtained his master from the University of Paris; turned to priesthood and was ordained in 1786; jailed in 1793 first at Brives and later at Bordeaux as a non-juror priest and sentenced to be deported to Guyana but released at the last minute when the prisoners boarded the ship; later, professor at the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle in Paris; his first collection was sold to Pierre François Marie Dejean [q.v.] in 1826 while his second collection was acquired by Thomas Norris of Manchester and sold at auction in London in 1873.

The entire work consists of 14 volumes, 1802–1805. The Coleoptera are in volumes 3 (pp. 74–239), 8–11, and 12 (pp. 1–80). According to Dupuis (1986: 210), some parts dealing with Coleoptera were authored by Anselme Gaetano Desmarest [1784–1838].

Separate printings of the third volume are known. Apparently the first printing had some typographic errors which were corrected in the subsequent printings (Evenhuis 1997b: 439).

The title page is dated “An XIII–1805” and the preface (p. viii) February 1805. The plates have no nomenclatural significance since there are no caption names. Two issues were published simultaneously for the first volume (see Sherborn 1899b: 428). The collation given here is for the first issue. A short review of the six livraisons of the second issue was published in April 1810 (Anonymous 1810). A second edition of this volume [GB, GAL] forming the seventh livraison and containing viii + 368 pages and 30 plates was issued in 1812 (Sherborn 1899b: 428; MacGillavry 1931: 175) despite that the title page is dated 181166; Latreille’s contribution is on pages 127–252. This edition is essentially identical to the first one except that some errors were corrected; none of them affect scientific names for Coleoptera.

The expedition report of the “Voyage aux régions équinoxiales du nouveau continent, fait en 1799, 1800, 1801, 1802, 1803 et 1804, par Al. de Humboldt et A. Bonpland” was published in 23 volumes, 1805–1837, divided into six parts, each with their own title. A facsimile of the two volumes on zoology was published at 200 copies in 1972 by Theatrvm Orbis Terrarvm, Amsterdam [&] Da Capo Press, New York under the title “Recueil d’observations de zoologie et d’anatomie comparée, Paris 1799–1803 (par Al. de Humboldt et A. Bonpland).”

A list of all new species described in this work is included in MacGillavry (1931: 176–180). No names are listed on the plates and so they are not nomenclaturally significant.

The entire work consists of four volumes, issued simultaneously in 1816 (Dickinson et al. 2011: 85). The third volume was authored by Latreille and the Coleoptera are on pages 170–365. It was translated in German by Schinz [q.v.] in 1823.

This publication constitutes livraison 86 of the “Encyclopédie méthodique” published by Charles-Joseph Panckoucke and includes plates 269–397 with an explanatory text (pp. 1–38) where scientific names are provided for each illustration. The Coleoptera are on plates 356–372. The first 268 plates, of which plates 135–246 pertain to Coleoptera, were issued 1790–1797 under the editor Pierre-Joseph Bonnaterre (Evenhuis 2003: 37). Only vernacular names were provided on the plates. However, an explanatory text for these plates with scientific names was published in 1828 (n.v.) with livraison 100 of the series (Evenhuis 2003: 37); the text (142 pp.) was reissued along with the plates in 1830 under the title “Tableau encyclopédique et méthodique des trois règnes de la nature. Insectes, papillons, crustacés et arachnides” [GAL] with Latreille as the author. Remarks about Panckoucke’s Encyclopédie are included under Olivier, 1790–1811 [q.v.].

This work was issued in three livraisons: 1: (pp. 1–90 + pls i–v) 1822 (wrapper), 20 July 1822 (Bibl Fr), 5 August 1822 (Acad Sci Fr), August 1822 (Not Geb Natur), July–August 1822 (Rev Bibl-Brus); 2: (pp. 91–134 + pls vi–x) 1824 (wrapper), 15 November 1824 (Acad Sci Fr), 20 November 1824 (Bibl Fr), 15 December 1824 (Rev Bibl-Brus), December 1824 (Not Geb Natur); 3: (pp. 135–198 + pls xi–xv) 1824 (wrapper)67, 13 February 1826 (Acad Sci Fr), 15 February 1826 (Bibl Fr), January–February 1826 (Rev Bibl-Brus).

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). These species should be credited to Latreille and Dejean (see Bousquet 2004: 41). This work came with colored or uncolored plates.

All supraspecific names in this work are in French. Berthold [q.v.] published in 1827 a German translation of Latreille’s work and provided Latinization for the vernacular names. A German translation of parts of this work was issued by Thon in his Entomologisches Archiv 1(1) [1827]: 10–12; 1(2) [1827]: 21–24; 1(3) [1828]: 47–79; 1(4) [1828]: 93–112. The translation includes the Coleoptera section (pp. 48–71).

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]. He went to the deserts of Egypt, Ethiopia, and Nubia (Sudan), where he discovered several important remains of ancient Egypt and the Roman Empire. His descriptions and views are important today, because many monuments were destroyed shortly after he had seen and drawn them.

These two volumes were also issued in 1829 under the title “Les crustacés, les arachnides et les insectes, distribués en familles naturelles, ouvrage formant les tomes 4 et 5 de celui de M. le Baron Cuvier sur le règne animal (deuxième édition)” by the same publisher. The entire series consists of five volumes, 1829–1830. The first three were authored by Georges Cuvier [q.v.]. The Coleoptera are on pages 352–581 of volume 4 and 1–167 of volume 5.

An English translation of Latreille’s two volumes was published in New York, 1831, as volumes 3 and 4 of “The animal kingdom arranged in conformity with its organization, by the Baron Cuvier. The crustacea, arachnides and insecta by P.A. Latreille. Translated from the French, with notes and additions, by H. M’Murtrie. In four volumes, with plates” [GB, BHL]. The Coleoptera are on pages 264–571 of volume 3. Abridged versions of this translation were issued in 1832, and reprinted in 1833 in New York [GB, BHL] and in 1834 in London (n.v.).

Another English translation, essentially similar to that published in 1831 (Evenhuis 1997a: 175), of Latreille’s two volumes was issued by G. Henderson, London, in volumes 3 and 4 of “The animal kingdom, arranged according to its organization, serving as a foundation for the natural history of animals, and an introduction to comparative anatomy. By Baron Cuvier. With figures designed after nature: the Crustacea, arachnides, & Insecta, by M. Latreille. Translated from the latest French edition. With additional notes, and illustrated by nearly 50068additional plates. In four volumes” [GB]. The entire series was published in 50 parts between 1 July 1833 and 1 April 1835 for the text; the plates cannot be dated at this time but most likely several plates were issued with each part (Evenhuis 1997a: 175). The Coleoptera are on pages 361–472 of volume 3 and 1–144 of volume 4 and on plates 6–61 of the Insecta plates. Most of the plates, at least all those related to beetles except plates 8, 969 and 32, were also issued in Guérin-Méneville’s “Iconographie du règne animal de G. Cuvier.” The Coleoptera plates in Guérin-Méneville were published 1829–1837 [q.v.] and a number of new taxa were made available by the illustrations. Whether some of the plates for Latreille’s translation were issued earlier than in Guérin-Méneville remains to be documented.

Additional English translations of Latreille’s work were published by Griffith and Pidgeon in 1831–1832 [q.v.] and Carpenter and Westwood in 1849 [q.v.].

A German translation, with additions, of Latreille’s two volumes was published, 1836–1839, in Leipzig, in volume 5 of the 6-volume series “Das Thierreichs, geordnet nach seiner Organisation. Als Grundlage der Naturgeschichte der Thiere und Einleitung in die vergleichende Anatomie. Vom Baron von Cuvier. Nach der zweiten, vermehrten Ausgabe übersetzt und durch Zusätze erweitert von F.S. Voigt” [GB]. The Coleoptera are in the “Fünfter Band, die eigentlichen Insekten enthaltend” on pages 1–346, issued in 1839.

This work was issued in parts, starting almost certainly in January 1814 according to Sherborn (1922a: cxxxi). The Royal Society of London were presented by W.E. Leach with no 1 of “The Zoological Miscellany” on 3 February 1814, no 2 on 3 March 1814, no 4 on 5 May 1814, no 5 on 9 June 1814, nos 6–10 on 10 November 1814, no 11 on 8 December 1814, no 12 on 12 January 1815, no 13 on 2 February 1815, no 14 on 2 March 1815, no 15 on 6 April 1815, no 16 on 4 May 1815, no 17 on 1 June 1815, nos 18–22 on 9 November 1815, no 23 on 7 December 1815 and no 24 on 11 January 1816 (R Soc Lond [Philosophical Transactions] 1814: 605–609; 1815: 448–454; 1816: 362–363). These numbers refer to the first two volumes, suggesting that each had 12 issues. I have seen an advertisement, appended to the second volume, stating that “The Third Volume of the Zoological Miscellany will be published on the 1st of January, 1817;” this indicates that the third volume was not issued by parts but published at once on this date. Mathews (1920: 13) also noted that “Vol. III. appeared as one item, January 1, 1817.” Collation of each part for the first two volumes is desired. Mathews (1920: 13) noted that each part contained “five plates and about one signature of text.”

The entire Edinburgh Encyclopaedia was published in 18 volumes, 1808–1830. For dates of publication of each volume, see Sherborn (1937b: 112) and Evenhuis (1997a: 123–124). An American edition, 1812–1831, was published in 18 volumes, each in two parts making 36 volumes in all (see Stone 1900: 686), in Philadelphia by J. and E. Parker [later E. Parker and J. Delaplaine] under the title “The American edition of the new Edinburgh Encyclopaedia conducted by David Brewster, assisted by upwards of one hundred gentlemen in Europe, most eminent in science and literature, and now improved for the people of the United States, in the civil, religious, and natural history of their country, in American biography and in the great discoveries in mechanics and the arts.” In this edition, the entry Entomology is on pages 646–758 of volume 8, issued in 1816. This American edition was reprinted in 1832 under the title “The Edinburgh Encyclopaedia, conducted by David Brewster. With the assistance of gentlemen eminent in science and literature. The first American edition, corrected and improved by the addition of numerous articles relative to the institutions of the American continent, its geography, biography, civil and national history, and to various discoveries in science and the arts.

Four Coleoptera genera are made available for the first time in this appendix by description and/or inclusion of an available species: Tefflus (p. 494) [generic description and inclusion of Carabus megerlei Fab.]; Odontomerus (p. 494) [inclusion of Buprestis serratus Fab.]; Phyllotoma (p. 495) [inclusion of Melolontha reflexa Fab.] and Petrognatha (p. 495) [generic description and inclusion of Lamia gigas Fab.].

The book was reissued with a new introduction and notes in London, 1966, by Cass (n.v.). A “New edition, with introductory preface by his daughter, Mrs. Hale” [GB] of Bowdich’s work was issued by Griffith & Farran in London, 1873; some parts were left out including the appendix.

A number of new genera, such as Albux, Argestes, and Anisofilia, are proposed and made available by the inclusion of at least one available species. The section is signed by “John Le Conte.” Hardy et al. (1986: 472) presented evidence suggesting that the author was Major John Eatton LeConte, and not his son, John Lawrence LeConte.

However, the paper came with a printed slip reading “Entomological report on route adjacent to 47th parallel; from Vol. 9 of the Reports of Explorations and Survey for a Railroad route from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean: printed in June, 1857.” This publication is a preprint for the official version published in 1860 by Thomas H. Ford in “Reports of explorations and surveys, to ascertain the most practicable and economical route for a railroad from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean. Made under the direction of the Secretary of War, in 1853–5, according to acts of Congress of March 3, 1853, May 31, 1854, and August 5, 1854. Volume XII. Book II.” Two editions were published the same year, one for the Senate [GB] and one for the House of Representatives [GB]. LeConte’s contribution was also issued in 1859 by Baillière Brothers, New York, in “The natural history of Washington Territory, with much relating to Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oregon, and California, between the thirty-sixth and forty-ninth parallels of latitude, being those parts of the final reports on the survey of the Northern Pacific railroad route, containing the climate and physical geography, with full catalogues and descriptions of the plants and animals collected from 1853 to 1857. By J.G. Cooper, M.D., and Dr. G. Suckley, U.S.A., naturalists to the expedition. This edition contains a new preface, giving a sketch of the explorations, a classified table of contents, and the latest additions by the authors. With fifty-five new plates of scenery, botany, and zoology, and an isothermal chart of the route.” [GB] and in 1860 by the same publisher in “The natural history of Washington Territory and Oregon, with much relating to Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Utah, and California, between the thirty-sixth and forty-ninth parallels of latitude, being those parts of the final reports on the survey of the Northern Pacific railroad route, relating to the natural history of the regions explored, with full catalogues and descriptions of the plants and animals collected from 1853 to 1860 by Geo. Suckley, M.D., and J.G. Cooper, M.D., naturalists to the late N. P. Railroad exploration. With the co-operation of Messrs. Baird, Girard, Stimpson, Geo. Gibbs, Kennicott, Torrey, Gray, Cassin, and Lawrence. Insects by Dr. John LeConte. Mollusca by Wm. Cooper, Esq. This edition contains a new preface, giving a sketch of the explorations, a classified table of contents, and the latest additions and corrections by the authors. With sixty-six plates of scenery, botany, and zoology.” [GB]. These two editions contains an appendix (pp. 72a–d), missing in the Senate and House of Representatives editions as well as in the 1857 version, containing a list of species added to the fauna since the publication of the original report in 1857 as well as a new version of tables 1 and 2.

The title page is dated 1830, the dedication January 1830 and the post-scriptum (p. 229) February 1831. Lesson (1839: 104) commented that his genus Megalonyx (Aves), proposed in his Centurie zoologique on page 200, has the inscription of January 1831 because it was published in that month. Lesson’s statement is probably incorrect.

This is the third section of a catalogue of specimens sold at auction. A reprint of this catalogue, under the title “Catalogus musei zoologici ditissimi Hamburgi, d. 16 Majus 1797,” was issued one year later with the “sold” items struck out (Sherborn 1899a: 272). In Opinion 1820, the Commission (ICZN 1995) suppressed this publication and its reprint of 1797 for nomenclatural purposes but nevertheless retained 19 specific taxa proposed in the 1796 catalogue as available, including the following eight beetles: Brachycerus caperans, Brachycerus junix, Brentus gnatho, Cassida caedemadens, Cassida ephippium, Cassida haematites, Cicindela nitida, and Sagra purpurea.

This catalogue is extremely rare and only three copies are currently known (Burger and Thompson 1981: 356).

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 tenth edition of the Systema Naturae was issued in two volumes, 1758–1759. The second volume deals with plants; the third volume dealing with minerals was not published. The first volume was reprinted in Leipzig, 1894, by the Societatis Zoologicae Germanicae (n.v.). A facsimile of this edition was published by the British Museum (Natural History) in 1956. Three more editions of this work were published including the twelfth edition, authored by Linnaeus, 1766–1768 [q.v.], and the thirteenth by Gmelin, 1788–1792 [q.v.]. According to Woodward (1907: 7), the eleventh edition was issued in Lipsiae [= Leipzig] in 1762 and contains no additions. Sherborn (1899c) published an index to generic and specific names in this and 12th editions.

The first edition of this work was issued in 1735 in Leiden.

According to Evenhuis (1997b: 480), the title page and prefatory material (first 48, unnumbered pages) were probably added in 1761 to unbound copies available by the end of 1760. The first edition of this work was published in 1746 [GB].

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). The tenth volume contains orations by Linnaeus, two biographies of Linnaeus, and four dissertations of Carl von Linné, the younger (Soulsby 1933: 100). An account of the 186 dissertations is given by Millin de Grandmaison (1789a: 315–385; 1789b: 1–106).

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.

Tomus III. 236 + [20 (Indexes, Errata)] pp. [DP: 1768 (title page), December 1768 (Stafleu and Cowan 1981: 107)]. The title for this volume is “Systema naturae per regna tria naturae, secundum classes, ordines, genera, species, cum characteribus & differentiis.

The 12th edition of the Systema Naturae consists of three volumes, 1766–1768, with the first one published in two parts continuously paginated. The Coleoptera are in the first volume, second part (pp. 541–686), and in the “Appendix Animalium” (pp. 223–228) of the third volume. This edition was also issued in 1767–1770 by Joannis Thomae nob. de Trattnern in Vindobonae [= Vienna] as “Editio decima tertia, ad editionem duodecimam reformatam Holmiensem” [GB]. According to Evenhuis (1997b: 482) it is essentially a reprint of the 12th edition except that the errata section at the end of volume 3 is lacking.

This thesis gives a list of the insects and plants of Ryby, a village in the province of Södermanland, Sweden. The Coleoptera are on pages 7–10; of the 165 species of beetles listed, four are described in footnotes but all of them were described previously by Linné.

The entire Exploration scientifique de l’Algérie was published in 25 volumes, 1844–1867. The “Zoologie” section consists of five volumes, 1845–1867. The “Histoire naturelle des animaux articulés” subsection, authored by Lucas, was published in 33 livraisons, 1845–1849, bound in three volumes with an atlas containing 122 plates issued along with the livraisons. The Coleoptera form the entire volume 2 and are depicted on 47 plates. The text and plates relating to Coleoptera were issued in the following livraisons: 1–3: (pp. 1–40 + pls 1–10, 14, 24, 26, 27) 28 March–15 August 1846; 4: (pp. 41–80 + pls 15, 21, 22, 28, 34) 28 March–15 August 1846; 5: (pp. 81–120 + pls 11, 20, 23, 31) 15 August 1846, 25 September 1846 (Leip Reper); 6: (pp. 121–160 + pls 13, 19, 25, 33, 36) 15 August 1846, 25 September 1846 (Leip Reper); 7: (pls 12, 16, 18) 15 August–November 1846; 8: (pls 30, 35, 38, 46, 47) 15 August–November 1846; 9: (pl. 40) 15 August–November 1846; 12: (pls 42, 43) before 15 May 1847; 13: (pl. 17) before 15 May 1847; 14: (pp. 161–200 + pls 29, 37, 41, 45) before 15 May 1847; 15: (pp. 201–240) before 15 May 1847; 16: (pp. 241–280 + pl. 44) before 15 May 1847; 17: (pp. 281–320) before 15 May 1847; 18: (pp. 321–360) before 20 November 1847; Supplément 2: (pp. 361–536) 20 November 1847; 19: (pl. 32) November 1847; 22: (pls 39) 31 December 1848; 30: (pp. 537–590) before 13 June 1849. The dates and collation are from Evenhuis (2012a) unless otherwise noted. The plates include scientific names for the species illustrated and some plates were issued before the text. Appendix 9 lists all the species depicted on the Coleoptera plates.

Based on the information available, I believe the following years should be accepted for the text: (pp. 1–160) 1846; (pp. 161–536) 1847; (pp. 537–590) 1849.

Ouvrage qui a obtenu une médaille hors ligne de la Société de Géographie. Entomologie. P. Bertrand, Paris. 204 pp. + 20 pls. (4to) MCZ, GB, BHL, EUR

This work is part of the “Expédition dans les parties centrales de l’Amérique du Sud, de Rio de Janeiro a Lima, et de Lima au Para,” under the direction of François Laporte, published in 17 sections forming 15 volumes, 1850–1859, divided into seven parts. The Zoologie section (seventh part) was published in 30 livraisons, 1855–1859, presented in seven segment headings, each separately paginated and with their own title and author and bound in three volumes. The entomologie segment is part of the third volume which, along with the Myriapodes and scorpions by P. Gervais and Mollusques by H. Huppé, forms livraisons 21–30 of the Zoologie section (Sherborn and Woodward 1901b: 164). These livraisons were noticed as follows: 21: 2 May 1857 (Bibl Fr); 22–25: 30 November 1857 (Acad Sci Fr); 26–28: 7 March 1859 (Acad Sci Fr); 29–30: 10 October 1859 (Acad Sci Fr). The title pages of the third volume and the entomology part are dated 1857. The Coleoptera are on pages 24–196.

Dating of Lucas’ contribution has been problematic since the collation has not been established. Sherborn and Woodward (1901b: 164) mentioned that livraisons 21–24 pertain to molluscs and that the entomology section was published in 1859. Gerstaecker (1859: 329) noted that the entomology portion could not have been published in 1857, the date on the title page, since it contains quotations of works published at the end of 1857. Some of the digitized copies seen (BHL, EUR) contain two unnumbered pages entitled “Table et classification des matières contenues dans le troisième volume” giving the collation for the entire third volume. Lucas’ contribution was issued in the following livraisons: 22: title page; 23: pls 1–2 [Crustacés] + pls 1–2 [Lépidoptères]; 25: signatures 1–4 (pp. 1–32) + pl. 1 [Arachnides] + pls 1, 2–3, 7 [Coléoptères]; 26: signatures 5–9 (pp. 33–72) + pls 4–6 [Coléoptères]; 27: signatures 10–14 (pp. 73–112) + pls 8–9, 13–14 [Coléoptères]; 28: signatures 15–20 (pp. 113–160) + pls 1a, 10–12 [Coléoptères]; 29: signatures 21–26 (pp. 161–204).

The entire work consists of two volumes issued simultaneously. A second printing was issued in January 1827 [CAKL, GB]. The first printing, 1826, is extremely rare. Zimmerman (1993: 664–667) discussed in detail the 1826 print and argued that “the restricted 1826 issue of King’s “Narrative” was not freely available when issued in 1826. Hence, for the purposes of priority the 1827 date of issue should be accepted.” A facsimile was printed in Adelaide, 1969 [OLIL].

The insect section was issued as part 3.

This work contains three sections, two dealing with Coleoptera: “On the Cetoniidae of South Africa” (pp. 3–52) and “On a new species of Cerapterus” (pp. 72–75).

Martyn, Thomas (Coventry, Warwickshire, United Kingdom: 1760 – 1816). British naturalist illustrator, entomologist, conchologist and pamphleteer; founded the Academy for Illustrating and Painting Natural History; the splendor of his plates for his Universal Conchologist (1784–1787) brought him rewards in the form of gold medals from Pope Pius VI, the German Emperor Ferdinand, and the king of Naples; not to be confused with the botanist Thomas Martyn [1735–1825].

The Coleoptera species are identified by names but the new species, although identified and illustrated, are not named. Two of the three copies I have seen had three unnumbered pages each forming a dedication to Charles IV, King of Spain and the Indies, and dated 21 March 1793. Weiss (1938: 322) mentioned that the paper and plates in some instances carry 1801 watermarks and that the title page was probably engraved in 1792 but the book was actually published later, no doubt between 1793 and 1801. The fact that the book was recorded in the February 1793 issue of a journal published in Pavia, Italy, clearly suggests that the book was first issued in 1792. The dedication was added later to unsold copies or possibly to copies from a subsequent printing.

The book was also issued in French, dated 1792 on the title page, under the title “Entomologist anglois: ouvrage où l’on a rassemblé tous les insectes coleopteres qui se trouvent en Angleterre et qui forment plus de 500 espèces différentes d’insectes, dont les figures n’ont jamais été données au public; le tout exactement dessiné et peint d’après nature, arrangé selon le système de Linnaeus, et suivant les memes denominations” [CMLE, GB]. The English version was reissued in May 1836 (Peddie and Waddington 1914: 371) under the title “The English entomologist: exhibiting all the kind of Coleopterous insects found in England, by descriptions expressed in French and English, and by 500 figures contained in 42 coloured plates” (n.v.) as advertised on the cover of The Entomological Magazine for July 1836 (see Mag Nat Hist July 1836: 447).

This publication forms the Livraison 30bis of the “Encyclopédie portative, ou résumé universel des sciences, des lettres et des arts, en une collection de traités séparés…”

The Iconographie and the Résumé d’entomologie (see previous entry) were also issued in 1829 in one octavo volume (8vo) under the title “Précis d’entomologie ou d’histoire naturelle des animaux articulés, par MM. V. Audouin et H. Milne Edwards. Deuxième division. Histoire naturelle des insectes, contenant l’esquisse de l’organisation, des caractères, des mœurs, et de la description de ces animaux, précédée d’une introduction historique, et suivie d’une biographie, d’une bibliographie et d’un vocabulaire par M.H. Milne Edwards. Ouvrage complété par une iconographie des insectes, ou collection de figures représentant les insectes qui peuvent servir de types, avec des détails anatomiques; dessinées sur pierres, accompagnée d’une explication des planches” [GB].

The volume was published in two livraisons: 1: (pp. iv + 1–128) 19 October 1850 (Bibl Fr), 9 December 1850 (Acad Sci Fr; Presse); 2: (pp. 129–240) 23 July 1851 (Soc Ent Fr), 2 August 1851 (Bibl Fr), 5 November 1851 (J Instr Publ). The title page is dated 1850 and the preface 25 April 1850. The half-title page reads “Catalogue de la Collection Entomologique du Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle de Paris.” This volume deals with Scarabaeidae (sensu lato). The content of the introduction, written by Milne-Edwards, clearly suggests that Blanchard should be regarded as the sole author of all new taxa proposed in this volume.

The account of Leopold von Schrenck’s trip to the Amur region was published in 12 Lieferungen forming four volumes, 1858–1900. Motschulsky’s contribution constitutes the second Lieferung of the second Band. It has a separate title page which reads “Coléoptères de la Sibérie orientale et en particulier des rives de l’Amour” and the first text page (p. 79) is entitled “Coléoptères rapportés de la Sibérie orientale et notamment des pays situées sur les bords du fleuve Amour par MM. Schrenck, Maack, Ditmar, Voznessenski etc. déterminés et décrits par V. de Motschulsky.” An extended recapitulation of Motschulsky’s contribution appeared in L’Abeille 16 [1878]: 51–168.

The second Band was issued in three Lieferungen; the first one deals with Lepidoptera and the third one with Molluscs. Its title page is dated 1859–1867 and reads “Reisen und Forschungen im Amur-Lande in den Jahren 1854–1856 im Auftrage der Kaiserl.

The entire work consists of three volumes, 1813–1826. The Coleoptera are on pages 763–826 of the first part (Abtheilung) of the third volume. The work was also published the same year by the author in Jena & C.H. Reclam in Leipzig [GB]. In Opinion 417, the ICZN (1956c) ruled that volume 3 of Oken’s Lehrbuch der Naturgeschichte published in 1815–1816 is to be rejected for nomenclatural purposes since the author did not apply the principles of binominal nomenclature.

This catalogue is often dated 1893 following Derksen and Scheiding-Göllner (1968: 251) but it was issued in parts. The first one, signatures 1–14 (pp. 1–112), was noticed in 188380 (Reitter 1883: 206). I have not seen further notification until it was recorded in Naturae Novitates on February 1896. However, the content of the catalogue was first published in the journals Revista da Sociedade de Instrucção do Porto2 [1882]: 37–44, 94–101, 147–155, 232–240, 307–316, 366–374, 416–423, 468–475, 495–502, 593–601, 669–676; 3 [1883]: 12–20, 65–72, 129–136, 164–173, 233–241, 281–288, 336–344, 406–414, 476–483, 525–532, 556–563; 4 [1884]: 39–48, 89–96, 136–143, 185–192, 233–240, 280–288, 424–432, 498–504, 529–536 and O Instituto.

Tome septième. Planches. – Genres 1 à 65. [DP: 1808 (title page)]. The first 63 plates (No. I. Pl. Ire to No. 8. Pl. III) are associated with tome 1, the next 63 (No. 9. Pl. I. to No. 34. Pl. Ire) with tome 2, the next 65 (No. 35. Pl. Ire to No. 65. Pl. I) with tome 3. Despite that the title page is dated 1808, these plates were issued from 1789 to 1795.

Tome huitième. Planches. – Genres 66 à 100. [DP: 1808 (title page)]. The first 72 plates (No. 66. Pl. I to No. 80. Pl. II) are associated with tome 4, the next 59 (No. 81. Pl.

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. Collation and dates of publication of each livraison are desired. Notifications for the following livraisons81 were seen: 1 (genera Lucanus, Lethrus, Scarabaeus): 15 May 1790 (J Encycl); 2 (Trox, Melolontha): May 1790 (Observ Phys); 3 (Cetonia, Hexodon, Hister): October 1790 (Observ Phys), 15 December 1790 (J Encycl); 4 (Dermestes to Anobium): October 1790 (Observ Phys); 5 (Ptinus to Telephorus): 20 May 1791 (J Encycl); 12: April 1791 (Observ Phys); 13–14: June 1791 (Observ Phys); 15–16: April 1792 (Observ Phys); 17: June 1792 (Observ Phys); 19: February 1793 (Observ Phys); 23: 18 August–22 September 1800 (J Lit Fr); 25: (12 pls + text of volume 5) 15 October 1807 (Télé Litt), 16 November 1807 (J Typogr Bibl), 23 November 1807 (Acad Sci Fr); 26: (12 pls + text of volume 5) 11 January 1808 (Acad Sci Fr), 15 January 1808 (Télé Litt), 25 January 1808 (J Typogr Bibl); 27: (12 pls + text of volume 5/6) 13 June 1808 (Acad Sci Fr), 25 June 1808 (Télé Litt), 27 June 1808 (J Typogr Bibl); 28: (12 pls + text of volume 5/6) 25 July 1808 (Acad Sci Fr), 25 October 1808 (Télé Litt), 21 November 1808 (J Typogr Bibl); 29–30: 21 November 1808 (Acad Sci Fr).

On page 45 of tome 8, a footnote stated that from the letter L (p. 443 of tome 7) to page 45 (of tome 8), the redaction of the Encyclopedie was confided to other persons. A number of entries, such as Libellule (p. 554) and Mouche (p. 827), are signed M [Manuel] or B.E. Manuel. None of the entries for Coleoptera are signed except for Lagrie (p. 443) which is signed “(Fab.).” According to Olivier (1874), Manuel simply copied the entries for Coleoptera from Olivier’s Entomologie, volumes 1–4, or from Olivier’s manuscripts. From pages 468 on of tome 8, a number of entries are signed “(Lat.)” and were written by Pierre André Latreille. The only Coleoptera entry authored by Latreille is Pambore (pp. 674–678).

The entire Encyclopédie Méthodique, one of the major scientific publication achievements of all time (Evenhuis 2003: 1), was published in 102 livraisons, 1782–1832. The Histoire naturelle section consisted of 14 volumes of text, comprising 13,671 pages, and 15 volumes of plates, comprising 1,971 plates (Evenhuis 2003: 14). The insectes section covers volumes 4–10. Separates of some of the volumes were also published simultaneously under the title “Dictionnaire encyclopédique de l’histoire naturelle.”

Sherborn (1902: xli) mentioned a second edition of the first volume published in Saint Petersburg, 1801 (n.v.). An abridged edition was published in three volumes and an atlas, 1776–1778, by Johann Georg Fleischer in Frankfurt and Leipzig under the title “Reise durch verschiedene provinzen des russischen Reichs in einem ausführlichen Auszuge” [GB]. An amended French translation was published in five volumes (4to) and one atlas (Folio), 1788–1793, in Paris by Lagrange under the title “Voyages de M.P.S. Pallas, en differentes provinces de l’empire de Russie, et dans l’Asie septentrionale; traduits de l’Allemand, par M.

In fascicle 9, the following Coleoptera are described: Cassida perforata (p. 3–4), Leptura plumipes (pp. 4–5), Ligniperda terebrans (pp. 6–7), and Ligniperda cornuta (p. 8). The first 10 fascicles are usually bound together with the title page reading “Spicilegia zoologica. Tome I. Continens quadrupedium, avium, amphibiorum, piscium, insectorum, molluscorum aliorumque marinorum fasciculos decem” and dated 1774.

A German translation of the first 11 fascicles was published, 1769–1779, in Berlin and Stralsund, under the title “Naturgeschichte merkwürdiger Thiere, in welcher vornehmlich neue und unbekannte Thierarten durch Kupferstiche, Beschreibungen und Erklärungen erläutert werden.” [GB]. A Dutch translation of the first six fascicles was issued in Utrecht, 1767–1770, under the title “Dierkundig mengelwerk, in het welke de nieuwe of nog duistere zoorten van dieren door naauwkeurige afbeeldingen, beschryvingen en verhandelingen opgehelderd worden.” [GB].

According to Horn and Schenkling (1928c: 912), Theile 1 and 2 of this work were first issued in 1782 and 1783. In fact Panzer published in Nürnberg a work in parts under the title “Voets Käferwerk, übersetzt und mit einigen Anmerkungen begleitet von Georg Wolfgang Franz Panzer” (n.v., but see Beckmann 1783: 335–336) for which the following notifications only were found during this study.

The first 109 Hefte, 1792–1810, were authored by Panzer, Heft 110, issued in 1823, by Carl Geyer [q.v.], and Hefte 111–190, issued 1829–1844, by G.A.W. Herrich-Schäffer [q.v.]. The dates of publication of each Heft, as supplied by Sherborn (1923: 566–567) and Evenhuis (1997b: 600) unless otherwise noted, are as follows: Heft 1: 1 September 1792; 2: October 1792; 3: November 1792; 4: December 1792; 5: January 1793; 6: February 1793; 7: March 1793; 8: April 1793; 9: May 1793; 10: June 1793; 11: July 1793; 12: August 1793; 13: September 1793; 14: October 1793; 15: November 1793; 16: December 1793; 17: January 1794; 18: February 1794; 19: March 1794; 20: April 1794; 21: 3 May 1794 (Intell Allg Lit Ztg), May 1794; 22: June 1794; 23: July 1794; 24: 21 August 1794; 25: 16 April 1795; 26: 21 September 1795; 27–28: after 21 September 1795; 29–35: before 29 March 1796; 36: 29 March 1796, 16 April 1796 (Intell Allg Lit Ztg); 37–38: after March 1796; 39–40: before 22 September 1796; 41: 22 September 1796 (Hagen 1863: 203); 42: before 9 October 1797; 43–49: 9 October 1797; 50–59: before 1 May 1798; 60: 1 May 1798; 61–70: before June 1799; 71: June 1799; 72–73: after June 1799; 74–79: June 1800; 80–83: after June 1800; 84: 17 June 1801; 85: 26 December 1801; 86–90: March 1802 (Monatl Anz); 91–94: 17 May 1803; 95–96: before October 1804; 97–99: 1805; 100: January–June 1806 (Verz Bücher Landkarten); 101–104: 1806; 105–107: January–June 1808 (Verz Bücher Landkarten); 108: 1809, July–December 1809 (Verz Bücher Landkarten), 2 April 1810 (Intell Jena Lit Ztg); 109: 1810, January–June 1810 (Verz Bücher Landkarten), 1813 (Hagen 1863: 27).

No title pages for the individual Hefte were seen during this study except for some posted online. For example, the title page of the first Heft reads “Faunae insectorum Germanicae initia. Deutschlands Insecten herausgegeben von Dr. G.W.F. Panzer. Ites Heft. Nürnberg in der Felseckerschen Buchhandlung.” There was no date on the title pages available.

As discussed by Saunders (1888) there are two editions of this work and some of the names differ between the two and new names have been issued in the second edition. Saunders mentioned that he could trace the second edition up to Heft 72 but that changes in the text and illustrations were made only up to Heft 37.

Panzer issued an index after each 12 Hefte, 1793–1809 [q.v.]. He also supplied in 1813 [q.v.] an index to the Coleoptera only. Finally, an index to the entire 109 Hefte of both editions was published by Saunders (1888).

The original edition is extremely rare (Evenhuis 1997b: 610). A German edition, essentially identical to the Naple edition, was published in 1787 by Varrentrapp et Wenner, in Francfurt and Mainz [CMLE, GB, BHL]. An “editio nova cvm XXXVIII iconibus ad naturam coloratis,” identical to the Naple edition, was issued in Lipsiae [= Leipzig] by Ioannem Sommer in 1808 [CMLE (mf), GB] and again in 1820 [NAL].

This work treats the insects of Calabria. The Coleoptera are on pages 1–28 and the following new species are described: Scarabaeus candidae (p. 3), Silpha 2-maculata (p. 7), Curculio triangularis (p. 14), Rhinomacer cacruleus (p. 14), Rhagium nigrum (p. 17), Buprestis bruttia (p. 22), Buprestis stephanelli (p. 23) and Mylabris melanura (p. 27).

The entire work was published in two volumes, issued simultaneously; the second volume pertains to botany. The content of this publication was apparently issued by Petiver earlier in various essays, most of them inserted in his “Musei Petiveriani centuria rariora naturae continens” (n.v.), 1696–1703, and “Gazophylacii naturae & artis” (n.v.), 1702–1711 (see Johnston 2004: 5). The 180 plates were also issued, 1764, in Petiver’s “Opera, historiam naturalem spectantia; or, Gazophylacium. Containing several 1000 figures of birds, beasts, reptiles, insects, fish, beetles, moths, flies, shells, corals, fossils, minerals, stones, fungusses, mosses, herbs, plants, &c. from all nations, on 156 copper-plates, with Latin and English names. The shells, &c. have English, Latin, and native names. Vol. 1. N.B. About 100 of these plates were never published before.” [MCZ]. Although the title is similar to the 1767 issue, the text is in part different. For example, the 30-page section, which includes “De Scarabaeis & Bombyliis Anglicanis: or, an account of English beetles and bees” (pp. 11–30), is missing in the 1764 issue. The work is not binominal and so no new taxa are available from it.

According to the prospectus dated October 1837, the entire work was to be completed in ten livraisons. However only five livraisons (Higgins 1958: 311), bound in two volumes, were published. The Coleoptera are in the first volume, issued in two livraisons: 1: (pp. 1–80 + pls 1–2) December 1837 (back of cover), 30 December 1837 (Feuil J Lib)89, 27 January 1838 (Bibl Fr), 31 January 1838 (Lit Ztg), 9 February 1838 (Allg Bibl Deutsch); 2: (pp. 81–144 + pl. 19) July 1838 (Higgins 1958: 313). According to Higgins (1958: 313), the publishing date of March 1838 for the second livraison given by Mabille (1872: 309) is in error. Plate 20, containing illustrations of various species of Asida, was issued in livraison 3, issued in December 1838 (Higgins 1958: 314). Higgins (1958: 313) gives a list of the new names proposed in each livraison along with the species illustrated on the plates.

Despite the title page is dated 1867, this publication was apparently not issued before 1868.

The entire report of the expedition was divided in eight sections (see Spitzka 1877), 1861–1875. The zoology section consists of two Bande and 228 plates, issued 1864–1875. The second Band is treated in three Abtheilungen and the first Abtheilung consists of two separate divisions, A and B. The Coleoptera are in division A along with the Hymenoptera by Henri de Saussure, Formicidae by Gustav L. Mayr and Neuroptera by Friedrich Brauer. A title page, dated 1868, was issued for division A; the title is identical to the one listed here except for the end which reads “Zoologischer Theil. Zweiter Band. I. Abtheilung A.” [GB]. The work came with black and white or colored figures.

Erster Band. Mit zwei Kupfertafeln. 564 pp. This volume was issued in five parts in 1871 and 1872 (Rye 1874: 236). I have seen notices for only the first two parts, the first one (pp. 1–112) on 15 June 1871 (Allg Bibl Deutsch) and 15 August 1871 (Amer Publ Circ) and the second one (pp. 113–224) on 19 October 1871 (Allg Bibl Deutsch) and December 1871 (Allg Bibl). However, the entire volume was published by 15 September 1872 as noted in Petites Nouvelles Entomologiques. The title page is dated 1874 as for the second Band.

A French translation of the identification keys to the families and genera, adapted for the Belgian fauna, was published under the title “Tables dichotomiques pour servir a la détermination des familles et des genres de coléoptères d’Europe d’après L. Redtenbacher” by M. Weissenbruch, in Brussels, 1878 (n.v.) and reissued in 1884, under the title “Tables dichotomiques pour servir a la détermination des familles & des genres des coléoptères de Belgique d’après L. Redtenbacher” [GAL] by Gustave Mayolez in Brussels.

This catalogue was also published in the Mémoires de la Société Linnéenne de Normandie15 [1865–1869] (4): 1–44 [DP: 1869 (title page), 17 August 1872 (Bibl Fr)]. Despite that the title page is dated 1869, this journal volume was not issued before 1872.

An earlier version of this catalogue was issued in parts, under the title “Catalogue des Coléoptères de l’Algérie,” in the Bulletin de la Société de Climatologie Algérienne 5: 25–42, 139–158 [DP: 1868 (title page)]. 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.

[1827]. Histoire naturelle des principales productions de l’Europe méridionale et particulièrement de celles des environs de Nice et des Alpes Maritimes. Tome cinquième. F.-G.

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). Evenhuis (1997b: 649) mentioned that the insect section was done by W.E. Leach. I found no indication to this effect in the book. There are about 30 new species of insects described in the volume, all but a few are credited to Leach and Risso (usually indicated by “L. R.”); the others are simply noted “(N[obis]).” In my opinion, all new species but those denoted by (N.) should be credited to Leach and Risso and the others to Risso alone. Sherborn in his Index Animalium credited all new species in this book to Risso alone.

The second page of the booklet bears the title “Descriptions of North American curculionides & an arrangement of some of our known species agreeably to the method of Schoenherr.” This pamphlet consists of four signatures, each of eight printed pages (Prena 2015: 402). The first signature (pp. 1–8) was probably issued in July 1831 as indicated on the title page and the remaining ones (pp. 9–30) likely in 1832 (Prena 2015: 403). Harris received the second and third signatures on 5 May 1832 and the fourth signature (pp. 25–30) on 26 December 1832 (Scudder 1899: 400). Pages 25–30 has a separate title reading “Supplement.”

In the sample, part of one of his forthcoming table is included where the generic name “Thelophorus” is described. This genus is currently credited to Schäffer’s Elementa entomologica (1766) under the spelling Telephorus.

The dates of publication of the five parts of this work are problematic. Kolenati (1845: 10) mentioned that the first volume was published in 1766 and the other two in 1769. Agassiz (1854: 255) gave the date 1766–1769 and Brunet (1865: 332) and Schönherr (1806: xix) dated the three volumes 1766 and 1769 respectively. The three volumes were recorded as published 1766–1775 (Anonymous 1777a: 199). Lacordaire (1838: 648), Engelmann (1846: 506), Hagen (1863: 114), Horn and Schenkling (1928c: 1053) and Evenhuis (1997b: 692) mentioned that the work was published 1766–1779.

A second printing of this work was issued by Breitfeld, in Ratisbonae [=Regensburg], in 1779 [GB]. Another printing of the three volumes was published in the same city, 1791 [BHL]. The text is written in both Latin and German.

Schaufuss, Ludwig Wilhelm (Greiz, Thuringia, Germany: 24 August 1833 – 16 July 1890: Meissen, Saxony, Germany). German zoologist and natural history dealer in Dresden; provided material to private collectors and institutions from around the world; built at his expenses a museum in Dresden which he named “Museum Ludwig Salvator;” editor of the journal “Numquam Otiosus” [1870–1890] for which he wrote most articles; his personal collection and those of the museum were passed on to his son, Camillo Schaufuss, who eventually scattered them; nevertheless, many of Schaufuss specimens are at the Deutsches Entomologisches Institut in Müncheberg and the Zoologisches Museum der Humboldt-Universität in Berlin.

According to Rye (1870: 185) this booklet, published anonymously by the Archduke Luis Salvador of Austria [Ludwig Salvator von Österreich-Toskana of his real name], is virtually the work of Schaufuss, who determined the species and described those that were new (16 in number). The 332 species enumerated result from a stay during 1867 in the Balearic isles by the Archduke, and from a visit of a few days to Majorca and Minorca by Schaufuss and Samuel Brannan in 1866.

This work was issued by monthly fascicles from August 1789 to July 1813. A total of 287 fascicles were published and bound in 24 volumes. There are 1068 plates, of which 1064 were actually published; the last four were prepared but the text not written owing to the death of Shaw (Sherborn 1895: 376).

A number of fascicles are available on GDZ and each has a title page which reads (for example no 25): Number XXV. (To be continued Monthly, Price 1s. 6d.) of the Naturalist’s miscellany: containing accurate and elegant coloured figures of the most curious and beautiful productions of nature, with descriptions in Latin and English in the Linnaean manner. To which are added descriptions more at large, and calculated for general information. By George Shaw, M.D. F.R.S. The figures by Fred. P. Nodder, botanic painter to Her Majesty.

Except for the first one, the volumes seen have no title pages, but have dedicatory pages in Latin and English where the volume number is indicated. The first volume has a page reading “Vivarium naturae or the naturalist’s miscellany. Vol. I. Dedicated by permission to Her Majesty. By G. Shaw M.D. F.R.S. the figures by F.P. Nodder, botanic painter to Her Majesty. London. Printed for Nodder & Co. 15 Brewer Str. Golden Sq. 1790.” followed by a page reading “Vivarium naturae, sive rerum naturalium, variae et vividae icones, ad ipsam naturam. Depictae et descriptae” and another one reading “The naturalist’s miscellany: or, colored figures of natural objects; drawn and described immediately from nature.” The collation and date of publication of each fascicle are available in Dickinson et al. (2006: 340–343).

Based on Sherborn’s Index Animalium (online version), three new species of beetles are described and illustrated in this work: Ptinus fatidicus (on pl. 104 in fascicle 34, published in May 1792), Scarabaeus cyaneus (on pl. 316 in fascicle 100, issued in December 1797) and Scarabaeus loxanus (on pl. 911 in fascicle 249, published in May 1810). A number of additional beetles are illustrated but these were previously described.

The title page is dated 1840 and the preface July 1840. Considering the date of the preface, the book was certainly issued in more than eight parts. It was recorded on 15 August 1840 (Athenaeum). Collation for each part is desired. The book was reissued in 1861 by Henry G. Bohn, London, under the same title [CMLE, GB, BHL].

Authorship of this work is contentious; some sources cite both Shuckard and William Spry as authors, others only Shuckard.

This work is cited as published in 1845 by Engelmann (1846: 553) and Brunet (1865: 336). According to Brunet (1865: 336), the volumes, except for about ten copies, were destroyed by the author because he was criticized to sell his book too much [“L’édition, sauf pour une dizaine d’exemplaires, a été détruite par l’auteur à qui on reprochait de vendre son livre trop cher”]. Considering the number of libraries that hold a copy of the work as seen in WorldCat, Brunet’s statement is incorrect.

The Coleoptera are on pages 35–41. The book was published under the initials “I.F. St. b.m.” Hagen (1863: 199), following Ochsenheimer (1805: 8), attributed the authorship to “J.F. Stopp.” I was unable to find anything regarding someone named “J.F. Stopp.” One online source credited the work, though presumably, to Johann Friedrich Rudolph Steiner (Anonymous 2015g). The letters “b.m.” possibly mean “Bau Meister” (= architect, builder) and would support the idea that Steiner is the author. Furthermore, Steiner (1785) published a small book on scolytine beetles a few years earlier, with his full name on the title page, indicating that he was interested in entomology.

The plates for this book were probably available already in 1775 since they are consistently mentioned, sometimes with the species named, by Fuessli (1775); there are no names on the plates themselves.

This volume is an expanded translation of Taschenberg’s “Die Insekten, Tausendfüssler und Spinnen” issued in 1877 and forming volume 9 of “Brehms Thierleben” series of ten volumes, 1876–1879. The German edition is not structured in a systematic way and so is not included in this compilation. The Coleoptera are on pages 1–94 in the Italian version which is systematically structured; several parts were added in the translation. This volume is structurally very similar to volume 6 of Vilanova y Piera’s “La creacion” [q.v.] issued by the same publisher; some parts in fact are identical.

Thomson, James Livingston (New York, New York, USA: 15 March 1828 – December 1897). Eccentric French-American entomologist of independent means; educated in France where he spent a large part of his life; his primary activity consisted in the development of his beetle collection, particularly the showy groups such as Cerambycidae, Buprestidae, and cetoniids, and his entomological publications; married to Delia Stewart Parnell in 1859, sister of the influent Irish politician Charles Stewart Parnell, for whom he manifested an extreme jealousy in a way that made him publicly ridiculous; after the death of his wife, married a second time in 1885; his collection was scattered but a large part was sold to René Oberthür and is now in the Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle in Paris.

Tome deuxième. 469 + [1 (Table des noms d’auteurs)] + [1 (Errata)] pp. + 15 (including frontispiece) pls. This volume was issued in seven livraisons as follows (Hayek 1989: 90–91): 13–14: (pp. [9]–80) June 1858; 15: (pp. 81–256) June 1858; 16–17: (pp. 257–336) November 1858; 18–19: (pp. 337–[472]) 1858, probably even early 1859. The title page is dated 1858. The third page is entitled “Voyage au Gabon. Histoire naturelle des insectes et des arachnides recueillis pendant un voyage fait au Gabon en 1856 et en 1857 par M. Henry C. Deyrolle sous les auspices de MM. le Comte de Mniszech et James Thomson précédée de l’histoire du voyage par M. James Thomson – Arachnides, par M. H. Lucas.

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.

The two volumes were published with black and white or colour plates. According to Hayek (1989: 89) the second volume was also issued as a limited edition of 30 copies under the title “Voyage au Gabon” (n.v.).

1859. Arcana naturae ou recueil d’histoire naturelle. J.B. Baillière et fils, Paris. 132 pp. + 13 pls. (Folio) CNC

This work was issued in three livraisons: 1: (pp. 1–64 + 4 pls) 5 November 1859 (Bibl Fr), December 1859 (Allg Bibl); 2: (pp. 65–120) end of 1859, probably early 1860 (Hayek 1989: 93); 3: (pp. 121–132) end of 1859, probably early 1860 (Hayek 1989: 93). The title page is dated 1859 and the avertissement 1 January 1859. The work came with colored or uncolored plates. Based on the entry in the Bibliographie de la France, it appears that the title on the first livraison was “Arcana naturae, ou archives d’histoire naturelle; recueil scientifique de l’empire français, destiné à faciliter aux savants de tous les pays le moyen de publier leurs travaux ou observations sur diverses branches des sciences qui se rapportent à l’étude de la nature.

The volume includes the following papers: Essai synoptique sur la sous-tribu des scarabaeitae vrais (pp. 3–22 + pl. 1) by J.

1860–1861. Essai d’une classification de la famille des cérambycides et matériaux pour servir à une monographie de cette famille. Paris. xvi + 404 pp. + 3 pls. (8vo) CNC, GB

This volume was issued in four livaisons: 1: (pp. xvi + 1–128) 1860 (title page; dedication dated 1 May 1860); 2–4: (pp. 129–396) 1861 (colophon on page 396; Soc Ent Fr [Bulletin bibliographique, p. lxiii]), 28 January 1862 (Ent Soc Lond). In a paper published in August 1861, Bates (1861: 150) cited the correct page for Thomson’s treatment of the genus Aegomorphus on page 336 indicating that Thomson’s classification, at least up to that page, was published; probably livraisons 2–4 were issued by then.

Pages [397]–404 form the “Table méthodique” and “errata” and were missing in the two copies of the book I have seen although a photocopy of the pages was included in the CNC copy. These pages may have been published separately; the colophon at the end of page 404 is “1861.”

All the papers are authored by Thomson except for one by Reiche. The work came with colored or uncolored plates.

1862. Monographie du genreMormolyce. Paris. 3 pp. (8vo) [DP: 10 August 1862 (Thomson 1862: xxxiv)] (n.v.).

Deyrolle (1862: xxxiv) mentioned that this booklet bears the date of 10 June 1862 which he believed was incorrect; in the same meeting Thomson (1862: xxxiv) indicated that a typographic error occurred and that the correct date of publication was 10 August 1862. This work was reprinted in 1868 in Musée scientifique ou recueil d’histoire naturelle (pp. 93–95). Two new species are described, Mormolyce blattoides and M. castelnaudii; the last one was described under the same name earlier in 1862 by Deyrolle in the Annales de la Société Entomologique de France (4e Série) 2: 314.

1864–1865. Systema cerambycidarum ou exposé de tous les genres compris dans la famille des cérambycides et familles limitrophes. H. Dessain, Liége. 578 pp. (8vo) CNC, GB

Page 541 is entitled “Diagnoses d’espèces nouvelles qui seront décrites dans l’appendix du Systema cerambycidarum” and dated April 1865. This section (pp. 541–578) was likely published separately from the main text. Although often listed in bibliographies as issued in volume 19 of the Mémoires de la Société Royale des Sciences de Liège, the section was not included in the Mémoires. The title page of the book is dated 1864 and the dedication 1 January 1864.

The work was also published (except pages 541–578) in Mémoires de la Société Royale des Sciences de Liège 19: 1–538 [DP: 1866 (title page), October–November 1866 (Bibl Belg)].

Thon, Theodor C. G. (Eisenach, Thuringia, Germany: 14 May 1792 – 17 November 1838: Jena, Thuringia, Germany).

Eiselt (1836: 183) mentioned that this work was published 1827–1828 and contains six plates. Hagen (1863: 219) listed six plates issued 1826–1828 although he had seen but a single plate with four pages of text. I have not been able to confirm that Thon’s work includes six plates. I have seen a single plate and found no review or record but for the first plate. The text is written in German and Latin.

Five Brazilian species of the genus Cassida are described in the text and illustrated on the plate: Cassida gibbosa Fabricius (p. 1), C. assimilis Sturm (p. 1), C. decemguttata Sturm (p. 2), C. platynota Germar (p. 3) and C. oblonga Sturm (p. 4). Except for C. gibbosa Fabricius and C. platynota Germar, the other three species are described for the first time. Authorship for these three species should be attributed to Thon since there is no indication in the work that Sturm was responsible for both the name and for satisfying the criteria of availability (see ICZN 1999, Article 50.1.1). These three species are not included in Sherborn’s Index Animalium.

This work is a catalogue of plants and animals in the collection of the Museum in Uppsala serving as dissertations to Thunberg’s students. It was divided in two series: the Museum itself appearing in 33 parts, published 1787–1821, and its Appendix issued in 26 parts, published 1791–1819, with two further unnumbered parts added in 1827 (Hagen 1857a: 202–204; Rookmaaker 1989: 151–152). Only dissertations with Coleoptera contents are listed.

The entire work was published in ten volumes, issued simultaneously in 1801. These volumes are often dated from 1802 (Hagen 1863: 223; Horn and Schenkling 1929: 1231) but they were published by the end of 1801. The Coleoptera are in volumes 5 (pp. 120–336), 6, 7, 8 and 9 (pp. 1–58). A second edition (n.v.), differing from the first merely in new title pages (Sherborn 1922a: cxxiii), was issued also in ten volumes in 1813. A “troisième édition, revue, augmentée et mise au niveau des connaissances actuelles par M. F.E. Guérin” [BHL] was issued in 1828 and recorded on 3 May 1828 (Bibl Fr). In this edition, the Coleoptera are in volumes 2 (pp. 121–363), 3, 4 and 5. The third edition was reissued in 1830 [GB].

An Italian translation by D.A. Farini was issued by fascicles under the title “Storia naturale degli insetti ricavata dalle opere migliori intorno a’ medesimi, e da quelle specialmente di Linneo, Fabricius, Réaumur, Geoffroy, Dègeer e Reasel, redatta giusta il metodo di Olivier, con note, molte nuove osservazioni, e con disegni tratti dal naturale,” in three volumes, 1832–1835 (n.v.).

According to Walckenaer (1830: 158), this work was written by de Tigny’s wife but was published under her husband name apparently because the name of a woman could have a negative impact on the sale of a scientific book [“sans doute, que le nom d’une femme pouvait nuire au débit d’un livre scientifique”].

Pages 455–476 and plates 11 and 12 form the “Appendix. Entomologia” which deal only with Coleoptera. A French translation was published in Paris in three volumes, an 7 of the French Revolution [= 22 September 1798–22 September 1799], under the title “Voyage en Hongrie: précédé d’une description de la ville de Vienne et des jardins impériaux de Schoenbrun” [GB].

Merkl (1998) gave a brief account of the new species of Coleoptera described in Townson’s book.

[1800]. A general system of nature, through the three grand kingdoms of animals, vegetables and minerals: systematically divided into their several classes, orders, genera, species, and varieties, with their habitations, manners, economy, structure and peculiarities. Translated from Gmelin’s last edition of the celebrated Systema Naturae, by Sir Charles Linné: amended and enlarged by the improvements and discoveries of later naturalists and societies, with appropriate copper-plates. Vol. II. Lackington, Allen, and Co., London. 717 + [2 (Errata)] pp. + 1 pl. (8vo) [DP: 1800 (title page)] GB

The entire work was published in four volumes. Jenyns (1835: xxxi) noted that all four volumes were issued in 1800 but Evenhuis (1997b: 780) noted that the colophon of the third volume (n.v.) is dated 1801 which leaves doubt that the series was indeed published in 1800. Copies of all four volumes with the date 1802 on their title pages are known [BHL] and The Critical Review published a notice of all four volumes in July 1802. The Coleoptera are on pages 12–523 of the second volume.

A second edition was published in London, 1806, in seven volumes under the title “A general system of nature, through the three grand kingdoms of animals, vegetables, and minerals, systematically divided into their several classes, orders, genera, species, and varieties, with their habitations, manners, economy, structure, and peculiarities. By Sir Charles Linné: translated from Gmelin, Fabricius, Willdenow, &c. Together with various modern arrangements and corrections, derived from the Transactions of the Linnean and other societies, as well as from the classical works of Shaw, Thornton, Abbot, Donovan, Sowerby, Latham, Dillwyn, Lewin, Martyn, Andrews, Lambert, &c.&c. with a life of Linné, appropriate copper-plates, and a dictionary explanatory of the terms which occur in the several departments of natural history. In seven volumes” [McG, GB]. The first four volumes are essentially reprints of the original edition (Evenhuis 1997b: 782); the additional three volumes treat the vegetable and mineral kingdoms.

Tomus I. [2] + 104 [the last 8 pages incorrectly numered 67–74] (Latin text) + 114 (French text) + 111 (Dutch text) pp. + 55 pls. [DP: 1806 (title page of some copies)].

Tomus II. 82 (Latin text) + 86 (French text) + 87 (Dutch text) + 20 (Index tabularum. Tom. I. and II) pp. + 50 pls. [DP: 1806 (title page)].

This work is written in Latin, French and Dutch. It was started by J.E. Voet and completed by Bakhuysen in 1806. According to Hagen (1857b: 407), Bakhuysen was responsible in the first volume for signatures M and N (pp. 89–104) of the three texts, plates 49–55, the final title page, and the dedication and introduction (first two unnumbered pages). In the second volume, he was responsible for signatures D to L (pp. 25–82 [Latin], 25–86 [French], 25–87 [Dutch]), plates 25–50, the title page, and the index. The section by Voet was issued much earlier, in 1766 according to Leske (1779: 412) and Engelmann (1846: 556)103, under the title “Catalogue raisonné ou systématique du genre des insectes, qu’on appelle Coleoptrées” (n.v., but see Beckmann 1776: 104–108; Fuessly 1778; Prange 1784: 209). It was noticed also (Anonymous 1767: 418) under the title “Catalogue raisonné & systématique des insectes, compris sous le nom général de Coléoptères, avec 8 estampes de couleur naturelle, & la description en latin, françois & hollandois.

Alonso-Zarazaga and Lyal (1999: 8), following Sherborn (1902: liv), argued that the work is not consistently binominal and rejected all names proposed in it. I agree with them.

The title page is dated 1858 and the introduction 12 April 1861. Likely the last part was published in 1861. Horn and Schenkling (1929: 1298) mentioned that this catalogue was published in 1858 and that a new edition was issued in 1861. This could not be corroborated during this study. It seems obvious from the records of the Entomological Society of London that a sole edition was issued between 1858 and 1861.

This work was first issued in parts (subscribers’ issue) and later sold by the publisher as two complete volumes (publisher’s issue). The title pages of the publisher’s issue differ in that the words “In two volumes” were omitted and the dates listed are “1st May, 1841–1st March, 1843” (volume 1) and “1st May, 1843–1st June, 1845” (volume 2) (see Baker 1996).

1847–1848.

Each plate of this work has his own date, from 1 January 1847 to 31 December 1847. Sherborn (1922a: cxxviii) and Evenhuis (1997b: 815) dated the species illustrated from the dates of the plates. However, there are no scientific names listed on the plates and the new species must date from the text. As seen on the back cover of the Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal for September 1847, “No. I of the Cabinet of Oriental entomology” was published on January 1, 1847 and “each number will contain three beautifully-colored plates.” The text is not mentioned. The title page of the book is dated 1848 and Low (1853: 390) mentioned that it was issued in June 1848; it was recorded on 15 June 1848 (Publ Circ) and noted in the section for new publication from May 9th to June 9th, 1848 (Monthly Lit Adv). The “Notice” in the book itself is dated 1 January 1847.

Sherborn (1929: 5253) dated the new species Cassida punctatissima in 1819.

Wollaston, Thomas Vernon (Scotter, Lincolnshire, United Kingdom: 9 March 1822 – 4 January 1878: Teignmouth, Devon, United Kingdom). British entomologist; his fragile health forced him to spent winters in milder climate and so investigated several North Atlantic islands such as Madeira, Canaries, and Cape Verde; the vast majority of his beetles are deposited at the Natural History Museum in London and the Oxford University Museum.

This encyclopedia was issued in 167 volumes, divided in three sections, originally under the direction of Johann Samuel Ersch [1766–1828] and Johann Gottfried Gruber [1774–1851]. It includes numerous genus-group name entries on beetles and some of them are quite detailed. These were signed by various authors including Burmeister, J. Victor Carus, Döbereiner, Germar, Giebel, and D. Thon. Whether there are new taxonomic acts, as in some Diptera entries (Evenhuis 1997a: 238), remains to be investigated.

The British cyclopaedia of natural history: combining a scientific classification of animals, plants, and minerals; with a popular view of their habits, economy, and structure. By authors eminent in their particular department. Arranged and edited by Charles F. Partington. Complete in three volumes. 1834–1837. Orr & Smith, London. (4to) CNC

First volume [ABA–CET]. xvi + 796 pp. [DP: (pp. 1–544) 1 April–1 December 1834; (pp. 545–796) 1 January–1 April 1835]. The title page is dated 1835.

The various articles are written expressly for this work by authors eminent in their particular department. The whole arranged and edited by Charles F. Partington. Complete in three volumes.”

For precise dates of publication of each montly parts, see Evenhuis (1997b: 604–605). Although no evidence can be found in the Cyclopaedia as to the author of the entomological entries, Westwood (1841: 14) indicated that he was the author. In some cases, type species designations for genera are given. The work was issued either with colored or uncolored plates. The three volumes were reissued as volumes 6–8 of the ten-volume “The British Cyclopaedia of the arts, sciences, history, geography, literature, natural history, and biography; copiously illustrated by engravings on wood and steel by eminent artists edited by Charles F. Partington” by Wm. S. Orr and Co., London [GB]. Woodward (1913: 1526) mentioned that volumes 1 and 2 were reissued with new title pages dated 1842 (n.v.).

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 (Pestana 1979: 353), each bound. Following instructions by the publisher, the parts were to be taken apart and rebound in volumes, each but the last of the text volume consisting of two parts. Title pages for the 39 volumes were issued, each bearing the date of 1819.

Dates of publication were not provided with the original parts. Those given in the table are extracted from an article in the Philosophical Magazine (Anonymous 1820b). The source for the dating is not indicated but are possibly from the publisher.

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 (Pestana 1979: 353). The title pages of the plate volumes are dated 1820. The natural history plates are in plate volume 5; 16 plates pertain to beetles and scientific names are provided on the plates. The dates of publication of these plates are desired.

An American edition (n.v.) of Rees’s encyclopaedia was published in Philadelphia in 47 volumes, 1810–1824 (Anonymous 1872: 181).

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.

This dictionary, under the direction of Felix Édouard Guérin-Méneville, was issued in 721 livraisons (see Tome 9, bottom of p. 641; incorrectly indicated as 741e) between September 1833 and February 1840 (Natural History Museum, online catalogue record). Dates of publication are known for a number of livraisons (see Evenhuis 1997a: 334–335). The entries on Coleoptera are signed by Guérin-Méneville [Guér.], Achille Percheron [A.P.] and Hippolyte Lucas [H.L.].

An Italian translation, largely based on this dictionary, was issued in six volumes, 1839–1844, in Milan by Ercole Marenesi under the title “Dizionario pittoresco della storia naturale e delle manifatture ad uso della gioventu compilato sulle opere di F.E. Guèrin e degli autori piu’ recenti.” (n.v.).

Although not specified in the publication, Nicolas Marie Thérèse Jolyclerc [1746–1817] was the editor of this dictionary (Barbier 1809: 53). The entries for the insects were written by Jean Baptiste de Lamarck. The type species of at least one genus (Scarabaeus; see Krell et al. 2012) is mentioned in the text. Despite the date on the title page, this dictionary was issued by December 1806.

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. Par une société de professeurs. Ouvrage consacré aux progrès des sciences, de l’agriculture et des arts” [GB]. 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.

The dictionnaire was abandoned after volume 6. Many genus-group name entries are included and some of these names are given type species designations (Evenhuis 1997a: 181). Georges Frédéric Cuvier [1773–1838] was the editor. Various authors were responsible for the entries; André-Marie-Constant Duméril was responsible for the “Histoire des insectes.”

The first five volumes are reprint of the unfinished Dictionnaire des sciences naturelles, 1804–1806 (see previous entry), to which supplements were added to bring them up to date. Georges Frédéric Cuvier was the editor. All entomological entries were written by André-Marie-Constant Duméril (initials C.D.). The work also included 1220 plates, published in octavo and in folio (Stafleu and Cowan 1976: 586), either colored or uncolored. The Coleoptera plates are in the following atlas-volume “Dictionnaire des sciences naturelles. Planches, 2.e partie: règne organisé. Zoologie. Insectes, par M. André-Marie-C. Duméril [et] crustacés, par M. Anselme-Gaétan Desmarest” [BHL] published by F.G. Levrault, and containing 27 pages and 60 plates. The title page is dated 1816–1830. All names listed on the 22 Coleoptera plates are in vernacular form and therefore have no nomenclature incidence.

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].

Tome treizième [VAN–ZYZ]. 384 pp. [DP: 1849 (title page)]. This volume was published in 6 livraisons (145–150) as follows: 145–147: (pp. 1–192) 7 July 1849; 148–149: (pp. 193–??) 10 September 1849; 150; (pp. ??–384) 5 November 1849.

The dates of publication and collation120 are extracted from Evenhuis (1997b: 575–576) unless otherwise noted for the first volume. Charles Victor Dessalines d’Orbigny [1806–1876] was the editor of this dictionary and Chevrolat [C.] and Duponchel [D.] were responsible for the Coleoptera entries. The three atlases came with colored or uncolored plates. The second atlas, with the title page reading “Dictionnaire universel d’histoire naturelle dirigé par M. Charles d’Orbigny. Atlas. Zoologie. Reptiles, poissons et insectes. Tome deuxième” and dated 1849, contains 17 plates depicting beetles. Some of the species illustrated were first made available from these illustrations. This seems to be the case with Agra latreillei (pl. 1, fig. 4) and Brachinus succinctus (pl. 1, fig. 6).

A second edition was published in 14 volumes of text and three Atlases [GB (vols 2–4, 6, 8, 10, 13–14, Atlas 1–2)] from 1867 to 1869 under the title “Dictionnaire universel d’histoire naturelle servant de complément aux oeuvres de Buffon, de G. Cuvier, aux encyclopédies, aux anciens dictionnaires scientifiques et résumant les traités spéciaux sur les diverses branches des sciences naturelle, etc. Deuxième édition revue, considérablement augmentée et enrichie d’un magnifique Atlas de plus de 300 planches gravées et coloriées.” An abridged edition, with M. De Wegmann as co-editor, was published, 1842–1844, in two volumes issued in 80 livraisons (Evenhuis 1990: 219). Copies with different dates of publication on the title page of each volume are know as shown by Sherborn and Palmer (1899: 351).

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 (Anonymous 1849: 304) from 7 August 1839 (Semeur) to 1848 and the three supplements in 24 livraisons (Anonymous 1859f: 580) from 18 April 1857 (Bibl Fr) to 10 December 1859 (Bibl Fr). Dating of all livraisons is desired.

The work includes many listings of family-group and generic names of insects, including Coleoptera. Some of them are signed by initials. Type-species are designated for some genera although they are probably not first typifications.

Jean Baptiste Geneviève Marcellin Baron de Bory de Saint-Vincent was the editor of this dictionary. According to Sherborn (1922a: xliv), this work “seems to be a mere resetting, with an occasional foot-note” of the Dictionnaire pittoresque d’histoire naturelle et des phénomènes de la nature [q.v.].

Two hundred and four plates in 4to were issued along with the livraisons.

Guillaume-Antoine Olivier (using the intial “O.”) and Pierre André Latreille (using the initial “L.”) authored the entries on the insects. New beetles taxa are described in some of the volumes.

This dictionary was reissued, probably by an Italian editor, under the same title but with the title pages dated 1839 and the plates copied from the original edition (Guédès 1978: 46).

The publication dates are from Stafleu and Cowan (1976: 636) unless otherwise noted. The entomological entries were written by Guillaume-Antoine Olivier (O.L.) and Pierre André Latreille (L.). All the names on the plates are in vernacular form. Sherborn (1932b: cxxxvii) mentioned that apparently two settings of this dictionary have been issued “as several variants in specific names are known.”

The editor of this dictionary is not mentioned as such and the entries are not signed. Engelmann (1846: 115) credited volumes 1–4 to Philipp Friedrich Gmelin [1721–1768] and volumes 5–7 to Gottlieb Friedrich Christmann [1752–1836]. All known insect genera are described following by the descriptions of the species. The species listed in the first two volumes are not binominal. The entire work has been placed on the Official Index of Rejected and Invalid Works in Zoological Nomenclature (Direction 32, ICZN 1956a).

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…”.

This unfinished dictionnary was issued in 21 parts (Hefte) under the supervision of Ludwig Friedrich von Froriep (Evenhuis 2015a: 51). Evenhuis (2015) mentioned that the work contains many new nomenclatural acts for both botany and zoology, including type species designations. Unfortunately, none of the entries are authored. As pointed by Evenhuis (1995), the new nomenclatural acts in this work should be credited to Froriep.

A new edition (n.v.) was started in 1837 but soon abandoned. Only four parts were issued and recorded in Literarische Zeitung on 22 March 1837 (Band 1, Heft 1), 10 May 1837 (Band 1, Heft 2) and 30 August 1837 (Band 2, Hefte 1–2).

11

To avoid confusion, places of birth and death are listed with their current country.

22

The work of Horn et al. (1990a, b) has been particularly useful for the whereabouts of collections.

33

In old works, the term “publisher” could signify the author, printer or bookseller (libraire in French) who underwrote the costs of publication.

44

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.

55

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.

66

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.

77

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).

88

This volume was listed in a catalogue of books presented at the Michaelmesse Book Fairs in Leipzig in 1790 (Anonymous 1790: 229) which was held on 3 October 1790 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

99

Some sources date Acloque’s death in 1908, others in 1941.

1010

Some sources give Altum’s birth on 31 January 1824, others on 31 December 1824.

1111

The date of 8 July 1842 listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 179) and likely taken from Sherborn (1922b: 555) is a lapsus for 8 December 1842.

1212

In its July 1800 issue, the magazine included the first part of a catalogue of the books at the Leipzig Easter Fair of 1800 (pp. 76–88) where Baczko’s book is listed; the fair was held on 4 May 1800 (Evenhuis 2014a: 4).

1313

The collection was studied by Fauvel (1886) who noted that it was in bad condition.

1414

This volume was listed in a catalogue of books presented at the Ostermesse Book Fairs in Leipzig in 1804 (Anonymous 1804: 19) which was held on 22 April 1804 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

1515

Plates 15–18 belong to the second Jahrgang.

1616

According to Sherborn and Griffin (1934: 132), plates 4 and 19 were also issued in livraisons 41 and 71 respectively (may be cancels) and there were no record for plates 15 and 25.

1717

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.

1818

Some sources (e.g., Darby 2016) mentioned that Blandford was born on 28 December 1874. This is unlikely considering that his first paper, based on collecting he made in August 1881, was published in 1883.

1919

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.”

2020

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.

2121

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.

2222

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.

2323

The plate includes also the illustration of another species, unnamed on the plate but named Stenocorus obscurus in the text.

2424

The Bibliographie de la France recorded Duméril’s volume without the plates on 17 May 1823 and with the plates on 18 October 1823.

2525

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.

2626

Evenhuis (1997a: 247) noted that the Allgemeines Verzeichniss neuer Bücher recorded volumes 1 and 2 on March 1781. In fact, only volume 1 was noted; the second one was noticed the following year. Considering the recording dates found in this research, I doubt that Fabricius’ tomes 1 and 2 of this work were issued at the same date in 1781.

2727

The date of 20 May 1798, taken from the Göttingische gelehrte Anzeigen, provided by Evenhuis (1997a: 248) could not be confirmed.

2828

Linnaeus used the name Buceros in 1758 for a genus of birds.

2929

The date of April–May 1778 provided by Stafleu and Cowan (1976: 838) seems a pure guess based on the date of the Vorbericht.

3030

Hagen’s (1862: 247) statement that Francillon was a physician in London is inexact (Cowan 1986: 139).

3131

According to Jäggli (1958: 199), some copies of this work have additional plates.

3232

In most bibliographies seen during this study, including Hagen (1862: 5) and Evenhuis (1997a: 53), the second fascicle is credited to August Ahrens. However the title page of the fascicle, which is often missing, reads “ Fauna Insectorum Europae cura E.F. Germar. Fasciculus secundus.

3333

I have seen advertisements (April 1814 issue of Leip Lit Zeit and Allg Lit Zeit) mentioning that fascicles II and III of Ahrens’ work will be published for the 1814 Easter Book Fairs in Leipzig, which was held on 1 May 1814 (Evenhuis 2014a: 4). However, the third fascicle was issued only in 1817 and I have not been able to confirm that the second fascicle was indeed available at the Book Fair.

3434

This fascicle has a second title page, dated 1837, which reads “Insectorum protogaeae specimen sistens insecta carbonum fossilium.”

3535

Guérin chnaged his name to Guérin-Méneville in 1836 (see Low et al. 2013: 101–102).

3636

Guérin-Méneville (1838: 271) listed plate 17 twice by error, one should had been plate 19. Musgrave (1958: 75) corrected the error.

3737

The entry in the Bibliographie de la France listed livraison 7 as livraison 6 by error. The sixth livraison was recorded on 1 December 1832.

3838

The date of 13 June 1835 for the second livraison, taken from the Annales de la Société Entomologique de France, listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 335) is incorrect.

3939

The Société de Géographie received the 28 th and last livraison of the work on 5 April 1839 which, according to Sherborn and Woodward (1906: 336), probably contains all the text of part 2 of the second volume.

4040

This date is from a separate page inserted in the copy on GAL, entitled “Avis très-essentiel” and dated 1 February 1843, where it is mentioned that the first livraison is on sale.

4141

Sherborn (1922a: lxiii) noted that parts 1–3 were issued “Feb. & end of Mar. 1843”

4242

The date of 12 August 1844, taken from the Revue Zoologique par la Société Cuvierienne, mentioned by Evenhuis (1997a: 333) is incorrect; the permanent secretary Flourens presented a copy of the text at the Society on 26 August 1844.

4343

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).

4444

The plates bound in at the end of the volume have Tafel I and II printed on one folded leaf and Tafel III and IV printed on the second folded leaf.

4545

The date of September–December 1841, taken from The American Journal of Science and Arts, reported by Evenhuis (1997a: 345) could not be confirmed. The journal recorded Harris’ work in its January–March 1842 issue.

4646

The date of 3 August 1799, taken from the Göttingische gelehrte Anzeigen, mentioned by Evenhuis (1997a: 359) for the publication of volume 8 pertains in fact to volume 7.

4747

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.

4848

The announcement is appended to volume 4 of Zeitschrift für die Entomologie in GB.

4949

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 Low (1853) for the third volume and the notice of “new publications, from April 6, to May 6, 1841” registered in the Bent’s Literary Advertiser.

5050

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.

5151

Lyal (2011: 87) listed plates 1–33 with volume 6, part 1, Supplement (his table 30) while the text pages are listed in table 29.

5252

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 (Kraatz 1859: vii).

5353

The wrapper of livraison 48 (pp. 33–40) is dated 1855 (Sherborn’s notes; Tottenham 1949: 360) but this is an error by the printer for 1857.

5454

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.

5555

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.

5656

The Academy of Sciences of Philadelphia received livraisons 78–80 on 22 December 1857, not on 17 June 1857 as noted by Evenhuis (1997b: 679).

5757

Several pages in this work have a date at the bottom but these seem to refer to the date when the text was written.

5858

The copy I have seen had only six plates (1–5 and 8).

5959

The footnote on page 83 written by Klug suggests that Wilhelm Ferdinand Erichson is the author of this section.

6060

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.

6161

The first 12 Hefte were noticed in Schaum’s (1849: 128) review of the entomological literature for 1848.

6262

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.

6363

Their source for the dates is derived from the “Inter Documentation Company micro-edition.”

6464

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.

6565

Evenhuis (1997b: 437) reported that Latreille presented his book at the Académie des Sciences on 13 January 1797. In fact, it was presented by Cuvier on 11 pluviôse an 5 (see Anonymous 1910a: 165) which corresponds to 30 January 1797.

6666

The date of January 1805, taken from the Magazin Encyclopédique, listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 381) could not be confirmed. In fact in their issue of 5 Germinal an 13 (= 26 March 1805), the Journal Typographique et Bibliographique reported (p. 270) that the first livraison of the Recueil d’observations de zoologie et d’anatomie comparée will be issued in May. The livraison was noticed only in June 1807 by the Magazin Encyclopédique.

6767

The date of 22 November 1811, taken from the Bibliographie de la France, listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 381) is incorrect; the Bibliographie did not mention a second edition but simply that the first six livraisons were issued. The second edition was presented by Humboldt to the Académie des Sciences on 3 August 1812.

6868

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.

6969

The number of plates indicated is different for some volumes.

7070

Plates 8 and 9 were first issued in the 1831 edition published in New York.

7171

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.

7272

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.

7373

Regarding the proper name of this author, see Duris (1993: 13–16).

7474

The date of May 1821, taken from the Edinburgh Magazine, listed by Evenhuis (1997b: 507) is probably too early. The book was listed under “Works preparing for publication.” A similar announcement for the month of May was issued in Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine and The Gentleman’s Magazine.

7575

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

7676

The date of January–June 1851 taken from the Bibliotheca Historico-Naturalis, Physico-Chemica et Mathematica reported by Evenhuis (1997b: 543) is a lapsus for January–June 1852.

7777

Motschulsky presented another copy of his “Sixième année” at the meeting of 24 March 1858 of the Société Impériale des Naturalistes de Moscou as noted by Griffin (1936: 257).

7878

The date of 13 June 1860 cited in Bouchard et al. (2011: 771) is incorrect and refers to the “Catalogue des insectes rapportés des environs du fleuve Amour…” published in the Bulletin de la Société Impériale des Naturalistes de Moscou 32: 487–507.

7979

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.

8080

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.

8181

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.

8282

The first two livraisons of plates, containing 24 plates, was noticed on February 1789 (J Phys).

8383

The date of 23 October 1811, taken from the Mercure de France, provided by Evenhuis (1997a: 227–228) could not be corroborated.

8484

The date of 14 December 1811 listed by Evenhuis (1997b: 588) is a lapsus for 14 December 1812.

8585

In it January 1818 issue, the Journal des Savans (p. 63) mentioned that livraisons 11 and 12 will be published next March.

8686

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.

8787

The dates of 1786 and 1787 for the second and third Hefte respectively could not be corroborated in this study.

8888

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.

8989

Considering the review date in the Revue Zoologique, the date on the title page is likely incorrect.

9090

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.

9191

Hagen (1863: 68) dated Reiche’s section 1849 but since the year 1850 is listed on page 256, Sherborn and Woodward (1901b: 161) assumed it was reasonable to accept 1850 as the publication date. Schaum (1851: 153) mentioned that Reiche’s section on entomology was certainly not published before 1850, and may even have been issued later. Reiche’s section was cited by in Mulsant’s Species des coléoptères trimères sécuripalpes [q.v.] which was recorded on 19 December 1850 establishing that the entomology section of Reiche was published at that time. The three volumes and the atlas of Ferret et Galinier’s voyage were received by the Société de Géographie in their sessions of 7 and 21 April 1851.

9292

Authorship of this volume is disputed. Some authors (e.g., Blackwelder 1952: 472, Zanetti 1987: 455 and Newton and Thayer 1992: 77) cited Rey alone as the author, others (e.g., Locard 1882: 304; Herman 2001: 3974; Bouchard et al. 2011: 775) credited the work to Mulsant and Rey. The journal issue has no author listed but the separate has Rey alone. The new species in the text are credited to both Mulsant and Rey. According to Belon (1895: 261), the writing of all joint publications involving Mulsant and Rey was done by Rey alone [“il est juste d’ajouter que le mérite de leur rédaction appartient exclusivement à Rey”].

9393

This volume was listed in a catalogue of books presented at the Michaelmesse Book Fairs in Leipzig in 1764 (Anonymous 1764: 516) which was held on 1 October 1764 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

9494

This volume was listed in a catalogue of books presented at the Ostermesse Book Fairs in Leipzig in 1766 (Anonymous 1766: 700) which was held on 20 April 1766 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

9595

This volume was listed in a catalogue of books presented at the Ostermesse Book Fairs in Leipzig in 1777 (Anonymous 1777b: 65) which was held on 20 April 1777 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

9696

The date of 8 September 1759, from the Göttingische Gelehrte Anzeigen, listed by Evenhuis (1997b: 710) could not be corroborated.

9797

The date of 22 August 1771 provided by Evenhuis (1997b: 720) from Beckmann’s Physikalisch-ökonomische Bibliothek could not be corroborated in this study.

9898

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).

9999

The Société Entomologique de France received pages 113–144 on 14 May 1890.

100100

Naturae Novitates recorded pages 353–384 on May 1894 and pages 385–426 on August 1894.

101101

Hagen stated under this work “Die Ankündigung vom 22. Septbr. 1796 kl. 8. pg. 2 mit Panzer. Fn. Germ. Heft 41 ausgegeben.”

102102

Pages 45–48 were skipped.

103103

Some of the dates of publication recorded by Evenhuis (1997b: 772), taken from Hayek (1989: 90), are in fact dates listed in the work itself (“latest date” in Hayek’s table 1) and are not actual dates of publication.

104104

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 Hagen (1857b: 406), based on Beckmann (1776: 105), signatures A–E + plates 1–24 of volume 1 and signature A + plates 1–8 of volume 2 were published by 1776 and, based on Cobres (1782: 390), signatures A–L + plates 1–48 of volume 1 and signatures A–C + plates 1–24 of volume 2 were issued by 1781.

105105

The statement of Gaedike and Smetana (1984: 280) that Friedrich Weber was born in 1852 and not 1781 as mentioned by Horn and Schenkling (1929: 1300) is possibly due to a confusion with the German physician Friedrich August Weber born on 24 January 1853.

106106

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.

107107

Stafleu and Cowan (1979: 410) believed the book was issued late 1781 or early 1782.

108108

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.

109109

The letter is bound with the Insecta Maderensia volume in the library.

110110

Some sources date Zinke’s death in 1813, others in 1849.

111111

This volume was listed in a catalogue of books presented at the Ostermesse Book Fairs in Leipzig in 1798 (Anonymous 1799b: 192) which was held on 29 April 1798 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

112112

The date of 5 March 1818, taken from the Göttingische gelehrte Anzeigen, mentioned by Evenhuis (1997a: 234) refers to a sample issue (Probeheft), not to the first volume.

113113

The date of 28 September 1822, taken from the “ Journal de Paris” (n.v.), listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 111) for the publication of the second volume is doubtful considering the date on the title page.

114114

The date of 15 September 1823, taken from the “ Moniteur Universel” (n.v.), listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 111) for the publication of the fourth volume is doubtful considering the date on the title page.

115115

The date of 13 August 1824, taken from the “ Moniteur Universel” (n.v.), listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 111) for the publication of the sixth volume is doubtful considering the date on the title page.

116116

The date of 26 April 1826 from “ Le Constitutionnel, Journal du Commerce, Politique et Littéraire” mentioned by Evenhuis (1994: 483; 1997a : 111) could not be confirmed in this study.

117117

Only a few copies of volume 6 were issued (Woodward 1903: 458).

118118

The date of 16 December 1817 reported by Sayre (1959: 71) and other bibliographers is a lapsus for 6 December 1817.

119119

The date of 19 January 1823 listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 182) from the “ Moniteur Universel” is incorrect. The journal simply noted on this date that three volumes of the Dictionnaire des sciences naturelles were recently published (probably referring to tomes 22–25). Tome 26 was noticed in the journal on 16 June 1823.

120120

The date of 1 August 1823 listed by Evenhuis (1997a: 182) from the “ Gazette de France” (n.v.) is suspect considering Cassini’s date.

121121

The date of April 1828 mentioned by Evenhuis (1997a: 183) is incorrect. The date of receipt from the Bibliographie de la France confirmed the date of 1829 on the title page. Volume 54 was issued after volumes 55–58 (Cassini 1834: 160).

122122

The collation is difficult to establish because the number of pages per livraison varied considerably, being generally of 32, 48, 56 or 64 pages (Iredale 1937: 34; Evenhuis 1990: 220).

123123

The date of 4 March 1803 for tomes 7–9 provided without qualification by Evenhuis (1997a: 197) could not be corroborated in this study.

124124

This date is an error by the printer for 1818 (Sherborn 1932b: cxxxvii).

125125

This volume was listed in a catalogue of books presented at the Ostermesse Book Fairs in Leipzig in 1777 (Anonymous 1777b: 55) which was held on 20 April 1777 (Evenhuis 2014: 4).

126126

To avoid confusion, places of birth and death are listed with their current country.

127127

The work of Horn et al. (1990a, b) has been particularly useful for the whereabouts of collections.

128128

In old works, the term “publisher” could signify the author, printer or bookseller (libraire in French) who underwrote the costs of publication.

129129

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.

130130

Titles starting with an article are also listed without it.

131131

Except for Appendix 11, the source of the dates for the plates is listed in the main text.

132132

“Cette dernière espèce est le type du genre pristonychus Dejean” (caption).

133133

“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).

134134

Fig. 7b shows the antenna of Coxelus pictus Sturm.

135135

In the caption the species is listed as Brentus (Arrhenodes) italicus Fabr.

136136

In the caption the species is listed as Hypera (Corniatus) tamarisci Fabr.

137137

“Cette espèce est aujourd’hui le type du genre Macrodontia de M. Serville” (caption)

138138

“Cet insecte est aujourd’hui, pour tous les entomologistes, le type du genre Purpuricenus” (caption).

139139

“Cette espèce est aujourd’hui le type du genre Rosalia de Serville” (caption).

140140

“M. Serville regarde cette espèce comme le type de son genre Cosmisoma” (caption).

141141

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.

142142

On the plate the name is listed as Scarabaeus nasicornis-americanus.

143143

The specific name is listed as africana on the plate.

144144

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.
