Possibly quartet 34 (according to Marco Polo / Naxos.com) rather than 33 (according to HMB) - no.33 according to Naxos was op.141 in C, - though both op.142 in E♭ and op.146 in G are between op.141 in C and op.152 in E♭ in the incomplete timeline (which lacks op.152) at this substitute for a Geocities quartet page.)
Brown notes that this was Spohr's last published chamber work and was composed in 1855 (Brown (1984), p.333.)
1855 date confirmed in the 3rd-person (written by family) part of Spohr's autobio... -ES
