Where is an evidence, that Pfeiffer is the coauthor of this book? --Snek01 (talk) 22:54, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Absolutely correct. This work is ONLY authored by Dunker. Must be a mistake in the biodiversity heritage library. The correct reference would be:

Dunker W. B. R. H.. 1882. Index molluscorum maris japonici, conscriptus et tabulis iconum xvi illustratus a Guilielmo Dunker. Fischer: Cassellis Cattorum [Kassel]. Series Novitates conchologicae. Suppl. 7: 1-301.

24 species named after him?
Can we be sure that all 24 of these species were named after this particular Pfeiffer? There were two other Pfeiffers that were malacologists. Invertzoo (talk) 13:15, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
