It should be noted that the online version of the Zoological Record (Thompson Reuters, Accession no.
ZOOR01200002053; accessed 16 May 2012) credits Bergh’s (1875b) publication with having introduced
additional taxa that in fact do not appear in that paper. The discrepancies are based on incorrect abstracting of
Eduard von Martens‘s (1876) article in the printed Zoological Record for 1875, in which he referred to Bergh’s
publications in more than one journal.

The project began with an analysis of partial photocopies of Catalogs I–IX obtained by RB from the library of
Hamburg’s Zoologisches Institut und Museum (ZIM) in the early 1980s. In 2007 Dr. Neal Evenhuis (Bishop
Museum, Hawaii) kindly provided REP with copies of the Catalogs used in his own studies, and in 2008 Dr. Petra
Sierwald (Field Museum of Natural History, Chicago) obtained the remaining parts from a copy in the
entomological collections at ZIM with the help of Dr. Hieronymus Dastych. Dr. Anders Warén (Swedish Museum
of Natural History, Stockholm) provided input on the gastropod family Eulimidae, Dr. Gary Rosenberg and Paul
Callomon (Academy of Natural History, Philadelphia) helped with various nomina and queries about specimens in
the ANSP collection, and Dr. Bernard Hausdorf (ZIM) shared information on the current status of Godeffroy
specimens in the molluscan collection of the Zoologisches Museum in Hamburg and also kindly supplied copies of
original Godeffroy labels. Permission to use photographs from earlier publications were granted by Dr. Thomas
Kaiser (editor, Mitteilungen aus dem Hamburgischen Zoologischen Museum und Institut) and Ms. Catherine
Weisel (Museum of Comparative Zoology). The final phase of the project was supported, in part, by National
Science Foundation award DEB-0732854 to RB. BivAToL project illustrator Lisa Kanellos assisted with
compilation of the historic illustrations. The work was greatly facilitated by Field Museum’s outstanding library
resources and various on-line providers, first and foremost among them the Biodiversity Heritage Library (BHL)
project. Two reviewers provided constructive input on the initial draft. Special thanks are due to reviewer Neal
Evenhuis who pointed us to various additional data and resources, including the works by Anonymous (1873),
Gurau (1949), and Starr (1892).
