Zool. Jahrb., I. Abt. Syst. Geogr. Biol. Thiere 1(1): 1-112. 13 figs. 4 pls. Apr. 1, 1886.
—A landmark in sirenian osteology and systematics, this work definitively established the existence of three and only three Recent manatee species (here termed Manatus senegalensis, M. latirostris, and M. inunguis). It also reviews their nomenclature, describes bone by bone the cranial anatomy of both adult and juvenile specimens, discusses manatee dentitions and tooth replacement, and reviews the geographic distribution of the three species.

1886bUeber Manatherium delheidi, eine Sirene aus dem Oligocän Belgiens.
Zool. Jahrb. 1: 369-378. 5 figs.
—Describes the new genus and species Manatherium delheidi, based on fragments of a juvenile skull from the upper Rupelian (Oligocene) of Belgium; argues (erroneously) that it is closely related to Manatus. (It was referred to Halitherium schinzii by Sickenberg, 1934b.)
