More detailed general coverage can be found in the Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology series, published by the Geological Society of America and University of Kansas. Part L (Mollusca 4) is the ammonoid section. Like all Treatise volumes, there is a general overview of the group followed by a genus-level survey of the group.
The Bivalvia do often seem neglected. For genus-level identification, the Treatise again provides a useful reference. For Indo-Pacific species, in addition to the Bivalves of Australia volumes already mentioned, the Japanese literature is reasonably extensive and helpful, and Brian Morton has done a lot with the Hong Kong fauna. However, much remains relatively scattered through the technical literature.
