The date of publication of section 16, corrigenda quaedam et addenda, of Dunker's Novitates Conchologicae, Series II, Marina Mollusca
The Nautilus (Philadelphia), v 124(4), pp 192-193

Abstract
Although of the date 1870 was printed on the title page of the final section of Dunker's Novitates Conchologicae, Series II, Marina Mollusca, (section 16, corrigenda quaedam et addenda), that section was erroneously dated 1878 in Johnson's (1969) collation of the work. Johnson's date was based on dated wrappers and other evidence from copies in the library of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard University and in Johnson's personal library. Pages 137-144 of the Novitates were received at the Harvard Library on February 14, 1879, and Johnson's 1878 date is based upon this date of receipt. Prior to Johnson's published collation, this section was dated variously as 1871 and 1876. The date of publication is significant because Dunker described a new species. Fasciolaria heynemanni, in the addenda, and this information fixes its date of description.
