Dear friends,
Once more I am requesting help. My son (a chip off the old block) plans a
flight to the Dominican Republic. We look into the trip-catalogs and see,
there are only sandy beaches, where one can hardly find mollusks. I can't
teach him better, because I myself have not experiences from there. Possibly
know somebody in our CONCH/L a few places there, where a stay would be
worthwhile to collecting. A hotel is not yet booked. The booking would
follow the piece of information. I would be very grateful for a few helpful
mails.
Thanks a lot,
Gert Lindner

Hallo Herr Lindner,

ich war noch nicht in der Dominikanischen Republik. Meine Eltern
verbrachten bis 2 Urlaube auf dieser Insel. Es gibt einige gute
Plätze for fossile Schnecken (ich habe darüber Literatur) aber auch
für Landschnecken. Fundorte muß ich aber erst zuhause
nachsehen. Charonias, Strombus etc. gibt es günstig zu kaufen.

Herzliche Grüße
