Hi there fellow Conch-L'ers.
 
I'm hoping somebody out there can help me out.
I'm trying to find museum specimens of two oyster species and am coming
up completely bust.  Can anybody tell me where I might find some decent
specimens (shell-only) of either Crassostrea belcheri (AKA C. nippona)
or Crassostrea rivularis (AKA Planostera pestigris).
 
Any information anyone out there might have would be incredibly
helpful.
 
Please respond to me directly rather than to the list as I am sure
this is not really of general interest.
 
Thanks much,
 
Dave Goldsmith
