There is further  Bouchet analysis of Zoo Rec in:

Bouchet, P. 1997: Inventorying the molluscan diversity of the world: what 
is our rate of progress. The Veliger 40: 1-11.  

(Trends from analysis of 12 thousand names from Zoo Record.)

Bouchet, P. 1999: Recording and registration of new scientific names: a 
simulation of the mechanism proposed (but not adopted) for the 
International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. Bulletin of Zoological 
Nomenclature 56: 6-15.  

(Examination of the defects in Zoological Record coverage during 1980-
92  in relation to the failed proposal for name registration and several 
other issues surrounding this. The omissions mainly relate to fossils, to 
non-periodicals, and (less than expected) to Russian and other non-
mainstream sources. Zoo Rec believes it now does better.)
