Brasilische Säugethiere. Resultate von Johann Natterers Reisen in den Jahren 1817 bis 1835.
Verh. Zool.-Bot. Ges. Wien 33, Beiheft: 1-140.
–Manatees, 88-95. Includes Natterer's original description of Manatus inunguis [n.sp.], 89-93; though von Pelzeln regards the latter name as a junior synonym of M. australis. It is from this posthumous publication of Natterer's manuscript that the Amazonian manatee's specific name inunguis takes its date. See also C.M. Diesing (1839).
