What does this abbreviation mean?
I am trying to find the following reference:
Greiff, Jahrb., 1863, p. 392
"Jahrb" is simply an abbreviation for "Jahrbücher" or Yearbook in German but does anyone know what the full title might be? A google search for
Jahrbücher gave a vast number of hits but none seemed to be chemistry orientated.

"Jahrbücher" is plural, it might help a bit to use the singular "Jahrbuch".
A quick test turns up some chemistry/mineralogy related stuff, e.g. the link below, but I dont see any within the first two pages of google hits for
which the author matches (Greiff isnt mentioned anywhere in the below example that I can see).

It should also help to try adding one or more keywords you think might be present in the text or related to what you are looking for.

Your are right phlogiston but I couldn't find anything really useful under either singular or plural versions. I also found another possibility,
meaning "annual review" (Jahresrückblick) but again I couldn't find suitable find from the right era.
Then I checked out the lists of abbreviations at the front of various books such as "Thorpe's Dictionary of Applied chemistry" etc. and discovered
that it probably refers to "Jahresbericht über die Fortschritte der Chemie und verwandter Teile anderer Wissenschaften". However, when I looked at
the 1863 edition in the Archive.org index it is the 1861 issue! and they don't have an 1865 issue... stuffed again. At least I know what I am looking
for now.

@Diachrynic, thank you very much! It is indeed the page (actually there seems to be several pages) that I need. As you can see I am interested in
thiochronates salts.
