The appendix with Roman page numbers (i-lxi) was added to the second volume in 1857. When reprinting the articles in book-form the type was shifted and the concordance between the pagination in the *Bulletin* and the book is therefore involved. *1*: "1842-1845" (see table below), p. \[1\]-544. *2*(*1*): 1856, p. \[i-ii\], \[1\]-374. *2*(*2*): 1856, p. \[i-ii\], \[1\]-436. *Appendix*: 1857, p. \[i\]-lxi. *Copies*: BR (vol. 1), G, H (vol. 2), HH, PH; IDC 5266. *Facsimile ed*.: 1969, Amsterdam (A.
