Hi all,
An update on progress with seeking Bobretzky. Many thanks to Nataliya Dnestrovskaya for supplying the two 1870 papers, and also to Jim Blake for a hard-to-get 1868 Bobretzky paper "The Chaetopoda of the Bay of Sebastopol" which will be very useful in conjunction with the 1870 paper. Great work by both. I will make these pdf available soon, with further details on the taxa included. However, we still lack the plates 9-12 from the long 1870 article if anyone has access to them. Paulo Bonifacio supplied an extract he had for the two spionids described, which included plate 12, so the plates were published.
Cheers,
Geoff Read

Subject: [Annelida] Seeking Bobretzky 1870
Hi all,
I have exhausted all options for obtaining Bobretzky 1870. Can anyone supply a copy?
The best source online for the journal is the Haithi Trust but they lack volume 1, and I cannot see any library which has volume 1, nor can our librarian locate it through her contacts.
I am sure libraries in Russia must have it, and am hoping one or two people on the list might already have a photocopy to scan or be able to scan from the journal.
Bobretzky, N. 1870. Materialy dlya fauny Chernogo morya (Annelida, Polychaeta) [Materials to the fauna of the Black Sea (Annelida Polychaeta)]. .
Zapiski Kievskago obshchestva estestvoispytateleĭ 1: 1-26 and 188-274, plates 9-12
The journal is also known as Mémoires de la Société des natualistes de Kiev.
Bobretzky (1870) has 12 new names. Unfortunately it is impossible to verify the details for WoRMS until we have obtained this article.
