3.3. Year of publication of the original description

Only the “Naamwyzer van de dag- en nagt-kapellen” – pp. 151-155 in the first volume of “uitlandsche kapellen” – is relevant for the year of publication, because this is the only binominal part of the volume. According to Hemming (1958: 41), these pages were published in 1776.
