Since Andy corrected the last name, this correction is even more minor. Andy

Carlo Davies Sherbourn, author of the multi part "Index Animalium
sive index nominum quae ab A.D. MDCCLVIII generibus et speciebus
animalium imposita sunt" Publ. Trustees of the British Museum 1923 (lists
all genera and species described 1801-1850) researched the dates.
At least in the earlier 1902 part (genera and species described 1758-1800),
the compiler's correct name in the version (Latinized?) on the title page is
Carolo Davies Sherborn, with one more "o" in his first name. This first
volume is very useful for the earliest literature even if the references are
very abbreviated.
