I am seeking the exact publication dates of the different fascicles of the Handbuch der Entomologie, from Bürmeister. Can anyone provide me with this information?
Thanks for the answer. In fact I need the exact date of publication, with the Month and day. For my studios on Dermaptera, I need to establish which name (among two names) has priority for a species. The Two names have been published in 1838 so I need the month of publication. It is not indicated in the Links you provided me with.
I think that at least the Bd.2 Abt.1 (Rhinchota), dated as 1835, was actually issued twice, at first in 1835, and than in 1839, being dated as 1835. Possibly, the Bd.2 Abt.2 Hf.1 (Orthoptera) dated as 1838 also can have a complicate history.
A good place to look this kind of information is: http://www.animalbase.uni-goettingen.de/zooweb/servlet/AnimalBase/search There you find generally the numbering of the fascicules. Kind regards Jean-Paul
