Other species-specific advertisements In addition to the longer catalog listings described above, Schmeltz placed various announcements in scientific journals, publicizing the availability of certain zoological specimens for sale. Several appeared—like Catalog VIII—as advertising supplements to the Zoologischer Anzeiger (Inseraten-Beilagen nos. 53, 73, 75, 89, 98, 100, 116). Most offered vertebrate specimens, no Mollusca were included among the advertisements located; see Schmeltz (1880, 1881a, c, d, f, g, 1882a). Journal des Museum Godeffroy (JMG) The JMG comprises six volumes (Bände), see Fig. 16. The subtitle of the Journal was “Geographische, ethnographische und naturwissenschaftliche Mittheilungen”, and the serial indeed published on a broad range of topics, including meteorological observations, maps, and reports of Godeffroy-sponsored collectors. Ludwig Friederichsen (as L. Friederichsen & Co., Hamburg) served as publisher. The JMG published in German, with very few exceptions (e.g., Milne Edwards 1873). In contrast to the inexpensively produced and distributed Catalog series, the JMG set high standards in print and color reproduction. The resulting price—a set of the first 12 published numbers cost 540 Mark (Scheps 2005: 185)—was described as “unaffordable“ or “extraordinary“ in contemporary reviews (e.g., Anonymous 1874: 1455). Eduard Graeffe (see above) served as first editor of the JMG from 1872, but left the Godeffroy Museum toward the end of 1873 to become director of the aquarium in Vienna. The editorial duties were taken over by Ludwig Friedrichsen, who had long acted as publisher for the various museum’s publications. Unassigned <strong>article</strong>s (e.g., “Kleine Mittheilungen” in Heft 2 of Volume V, 1876) are therefore attributable to Friedrichsen, although much of the material was likely provided by curator (and Catalog author) Schmeltz. Financial support for the JMG dried up in 1881 (Günther, in the foreword to Heft VIII of 1909), and the final numbers making up volume VI published in 1909 and 1910 appeared long after the museum had ceased to exist. It was a Godeffroy family foundation (the “Dr. Wilhelm Martin von Godeffroy Familien-Fidei-Comiss-Stiftung”) that came to the rescue and allowed the completion of the project. As previously pointed out by Winckworth (1946: 22), the JMG has a puzzling system of multiple pagination, one each for the volume (Band), the part (Heft), and the separately issued offprints. Another peculiarity is the combination of the Hefte into volumes out of numerical order, with volume I consisting of parts 1, 2, and 4; volume II of parts 3, 5, 7, and 9; volume III of parts 6, 8, and 10; volume IV of parts 11, 13, and 15; and volume V of parts 12 and 14. Volumes II, IV, and VI were dedicated entirely to “Andrew Garrett’s Fische der Südsee” (see below). Here the volumes (Bände) and parts (Hefte) received a dual classification system; for example, Heft 13 of Band IV in the overall publication series corresponds to Heft 6 of Band II of the “Fische der Südsee”. The other volumes contained miscellaneous <strong>article</strong>s. The journal editors were very inconsistent in citing the <strong>article</strong> titles in the content listings of volumes and numbers, leading to some confusion in the subsequent literature. An example is Graeffe’s (1873b) report on Kubary’s work in the Marshall Islands, which in the actual <strong>article</strong> is named simply “Die Ebongruppe im Marshall’s Archipel”, in the content listing of Heft 1 “Die Lagune von Ebon, nach brieflichen Mittheilungen von J. Kubary, bearbeitet by Dr. E. Gräffe”, and in the content listing of Band 1 “Die Ebongruppe I, Marshall’s Archipel nach briefl. Mitteilungen J. Kubary’s”. The following lists all volumes (Bände) with their individual parts (Hefte) and indicates <strong>article</strong>s that are dealing with taxonomy of Mollusca. Articles that mention general collecting activities or descriptions of shellbased artifacts are not annotated herein. The major molluscan <strong>article</strong>s were authored by the Danish physician and malacologist Rudolph Bergh (1873a, 1874c, 1875b, 1879a), as part of his extensive series on the nudibranchs of the South Sea (“Neue Nacktschnecken der Südsee, malacologische Untersuchungen”); see Fig. 17. 20 · Zootaxa 3511 © 2012 <strong>Magnolia</strong> <strong>Press</strong> BIELER & PETIT
