Constantine,

Powell wrote two books about the New Zealand fauna that I am aware of:

Powell, A. W. B. 1976. Shells of New Zealand: An Illustrated
Handbook. 5th revised edition. Whitcoulls, Christchurch, New Zealand.
1976. 154 pp., 45 pls. [Formerly titled The Shellfish of New Zealand].

Powell, A. W. B. 1979. New Zealand Mollusca. Marine,
Land and Freshwater Shells. William Collins
Publishers, Ltd., Auckland, New Zealand. xiv +
500 pp., 82 pls.

You might want to check with used booksellers about the availability of a
copy. I am not aware of any recent reprints.

> Is there a 1979 publication (reprint) by Powell of "The mollusca of New
> Zealand" and if so where it is available?
