Item description from seller

Mollusca: The Southern Synthesis is the most comprehensive and authoritative treatment yet of Australia s marine, freshwater and terrestrial molluscs. It is a significant international reference, with contributions from 70 authors, and in which some 7700 papers in the primary literature are cited. Most molluscan families described in the book are also found in the Northern Hemisphere, making this title an essential reference for malacologists worldwide. Mollusca: The Southern Synthesis provides a series of overviews at one or more levels for the phylum and six classes, introducing accounts for the 423 molluscan families presently recognised in the region. At each level, details are presented on: morphology and physiology; natural history; biogeography and phylogeny; history of discovery; and economic significance. There is also a comprehensive coverage of the fossil record. The glossary will assist readers less familiar with special terms, and the 30 000 entries in the comprehensive index will ensure ready access to information in the text and figures. 1250 pp., 2500 figs, 700 photos, 2 Vols hc 4.…
