Taxa still incorrectly listed as “n. sp.“ after they had already been described, and taxa introduced by other
authors incorrectly annotated with Bergh’s name are not listed herein.
The following lists those molluscan names that where first made available in the Journal, as well as those that
were indicated as new descriptiona but had in fact been published elsewhere. Bold face font indicates the original
binomen and author/date combination when first made available. Text and figure references to that taxon in the
JMG are given, with the alternate number in the dual pagination scheme in [brackets]. When provided in the
original, the original local and collector (often Garrett or Graeffe) are also stated. Because of the complexities
involving near-simultaneously published and previously ill-dated works, additional commentary is made.
“Asteronotus mabilla Bergh”—described as such by Bergh (1878b: 627, 644, 645), and Bergh 1879a (JMG, 5(14):
50, pl. 5, figs. 19–23), the former citing Bergh (1877b; no description therein) and an anatomically “wrong”
description of this species by Abraham (1877: 249). First described as Doris mabilla Abraham, 1877 (1877: 249,
pl. 28, figs. 1–4); Abraham had adopted Bergh’s manuscript name from label information at the British Museum.
Considered valid by Sachidhanandam et al. (2000: 524) as “Asteronotus mabila [sic] Bergh, 1878 (apparently no
published figure exists)”, but treated as a synonym of Asteronotus cespitosus (van Hasselt, 1824) by others
(McDonald, 2009: 356).
Cerberilla Bergh, 1873, as “n. gen.”; JMG 1(2) 1873a: 160 [88]. Type species by monotypy, Cerberilla
longicirrha Berg, 1873.
Cerberilla longicirrha Bergh, 1873, as “n. sp.”; JMG 1(2) 1873a: 161–164 [88–92], pl. 11, fig. 27; pl. 12, figs.
6–16. Upolu, Samoa (Graeffe, coll.).—JMG 3(6) 1874c: 115, pl. 3, figs. 1–3.
Chromodoris (Goniodoris) albolineata [as albo-lineata] Bergh, 1879, as of “v. Martens in sched.” JMG 5(14)
1879a: 5. Based on specimens in the Berlin Museum. Rudman (1982: 196) placed in synonymy of Chromodoris
lineolata (van Hasselt, 1824).
Chromodoris albonotata [as albo-notata] Bergh, 1875, as “n. sp.”; JMG 3(8) 1875b: 208 [76], 227, pl. 7, fig.
1.—JMG, 5(14) 1879a: 5, 6, 48, pl. 3, figs. 15–17. Tahiti (Garrett, coll.). Accepted as valid species by Rudman
(1986a: 165).
Chromodoris annae Bergh, 1875, as “n. sp.”; JMG 3(8) 1875b: 205 [73]; nomen nudum. With footnote on page 205
[73] stating that new species not formally described in the remainder of the article will be introduced in a later part
of the Journal or in Heft 10 of Bergh’s Malacologische Untersuchungen in Semper’s ‘Reisen’. Described as
Chromodoris annae Bergh, 1877 (1877c: 473, 474, pl. 51, figs. 11–23). Accepted as valid species by Rudman
(1982: 210).
Chromodoris calensis Bergh, 1879, as “n. sp.”; JMG, 5(14) 1879a: 3; nomen nudum. With footnote on p. 3 stating
that this species will be published in Bergh’s “nudibranchiate Gastraeopoda [sic] of the North Pacific”, as part of
Dall’s Exploration of Alaska. Described as Chromodoris californiensis Bergh, 1879 (Bergh, 1879c, d), but shown
as Chromodoris calensis on pl. 14 [6] (1880a), figs. 5–15). Bergh (1880a: 274, under “Errata for Part I”) stated
“The specific name Californiensis (Chromodoris) was substituted in the printed text for Calensis, which appeared
on the plate and in the manuscript under the idea that the latter was intended merely as an abbreviation”. Bertsch &
Burn (1979: 255) petitioned the I.C.Z.N. “to place the specific name californiensis Bergh, 1879, as published in the
binomen Chromodoris californiensis, on the Official List of Specific Names in Zoology”. I.C.Z.N. (1983) Opinion
1253 rejected C. glauca Bergh, 1879 (1879b) and gave preference to, and placed on the Official List, Chromodoris
californiensis Bergh, 1879 (1879c). Chromodoris calensis was not discussed.
Chromodoris camoena Bergh, 1879, as “n. sp.”; JMG 5(14) 1879a: 2, 17, 18, 49, pl. 4, figs. 24–29. Tonga
(Graeffe, coll.). McDonald (1990: 150) placed in Glossodoris.
Chromodoris cantrainii Bergh, 1879; JMG 5(14) 1879a: 2. Listed with two references to “Goniodoris elegans,
Cantr[aine]” in synonymy. Although not stated as such, Bergh apparently introduced a new name to replace Doris
