Dear Rich,
I know this little publication (not by ICZN criteria since it is
mimeographed -at least my copy is).
I find it useful for the nomenclatorial, linguistic, and etymological
remarks - and have since Bill Old recommended it to me no more than
ten years after its production.
I always cross-check pretty much everything that isn't a slam-dunk,
and there are few inaccuracies in these aspects.
