Index of the Books and Authors cited in the Zoological Works of Linnaeus (Index Librorum et Auctorum in Operibus zoologicii Linnaeus Citatorum)

Description:

Linnaeus' Systema Naturae (10th edition) is the starting point for the modern binomial system of animal nomenclature. For taxonomic revisions it is essential that it is clear what Linnaeus was referring to in his Systema Naturae. This key to the sources used by Linnaeus clarifies problems with Systema Naturae and provides taxonomists with an authoratitive tool to facilitate their work.
