Paleonet: Russian specimens

[Plotnick, Roy E]

I am trying to track down, if they still exist, the type specimens of Stylonurus (?) simonsoni (=Mixopterus simonsoni), described by F. Schmidt (1904) in the Bulletin de l'Académie Impériale des Sciences de St.-Pétersbourg. Anyone have any suggestions of where they might be, or at least a possible contact who might be able to help?
Thanks - Roy
