Type Catalogue of the Ichthyological Section
In the course of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) programme in 2005, the available type material of the Ichthyology Section in ZSM was revised and the fi sh collection searched for hidden type material that was previously considered lost. The GBIF-programme aimed to create a database of the type specimens in German research museums. With the end of the project in 2006, the reorganisation and thorough revision of the fi sh collection in ZSM started by F. Glaw in 1998 is completed. The results are published in a type catalogue, the first type catalogue of the Ichthyological Collection of the Zoologische Staatssammlung München (ZSM).
The first part of the type catalogue was published in SPIXIANA on 1.November 2006:
Neumann, D. 2006. Type Catalogue of the Ichthyological Collection of the Zoologische Staatssammlung München. Part I: Historic type material from the “Old Collection”, destroyed in the night 24/25 April 1944. – Spixiana 29 (3): 259-285. 
The second part of the type catalogue refers to physically available Types of the fish collection:
Neumann, D. 2011. Type Catalogue of the Ichthyological Collection of the Zoologische Staatssammlung München. Part II: Fish types inventoried after 25 April 1944. Spixiana 34 (2): 231-286
