After all these years how accurate is Voke's volumes on the Bivalvia considered
to be?

> There are several published cladistic studies on fossil gastropods.  As might
be expcted,
it depends on the characters as to how useful they are.  Vermeij, Dan Miller,
and Peter
Wagner come to mind as some authors to check.  Formal cladistic analyses on the
Bivalvia
are much fewer; the Evolutionary Biology of the Bivalvia volume just published
by the
Geological Society of London has one based almost entirely on shell data, with
quite a few
characters.
