Taxonomy of Opiliones - Minor authors

< back to Arachnology    < back to OmniPaper index

Assorted papers by various authors Please note that the expression "minor authors" does not express any judgement of value. It refers only to authors who focused on other things and therefore produced very few papers on Opiliones. A "minor author" for Opiliones may be a "major author" for spiders for example. CONTRIBUTORS TO THIS PAGE: Pavel Bezděčka (provided PDF of Dolansky 1997) Theo Blick (provided PDFs of Herbst, 1798, 1799) Jason Dunlop (allowed access to facilities in ZMB, Berlin) Anja Friederichs (allowed access to Staatsbibliothek, Berlin) Ian S. Kury (took photos in Staatsbibliothek, Berlin and also sacrificed his leisure time to assist with the biblio-hunting in Berlin, 2009) Dmitri Logunov (provided photocopies of Farzalieva & Esyunin) Hans-Ulrich Raake (helped me find titles, locate volumes, operate scan machine in ZMB, Berlin) Plamen Mitov (contributed PDF of Wang 1941) Nataly Snegovaya (contributed PDF of Bogachev 1951) Janet Beccaloni + Milena Kury (reavers of London libraries, provided photocopies of Bacelar 1950)
DISCLAIMER — This resource was first intended as for private use of the members of the arachnology lab of Museu Nacional, but later we thought "why not to share this with the world?". Eventually if greedy lawyers (redundance...) start to bother us with copyright matters, etc, we may have to be forced to quit the project and keep this just to ourselves.
