Hi,
FYI, news of Biodiversity Heritage Library, a digitisation project of some
major natural history libraries, including the Smithsonian's, at:
http://www.bhl.si.edu/index.cfm
Sherborn's Index Animalium (all species 1758 to 1850) is now digitised &
searchable at:
http://www.sil.si.edu/digitalcollections/indexanimalium/
(has cool animation - image to name - on the menu page).
By the way, you will recall that Neave's Nomenclator Zoologicus is online at:
http://www.ubio.org/NomenclatorZoologicus
Cheers,
