[Taxacom] Publication dates for Encyclopaedia Britannica

[Carlos Alberto Martínez Muñoz]

Dear Neal,
Many thanks for your quick reply! Is there a source that I could cite for
the date, like a paper by Sherborn or an announcement in The Times? Do you
know the page range for the half volumes of volume 1 of this supplement?
Regards,
Carlos
