I'm not sure whether I've already posted this...
I'll be revisiting Vancouver Island shortly, specifically to collect.
If anyone has exact locality information as to where to collect is
likely to yield living intertidal specimens of the following species,
a p-mail would be greatly appreciated (I'm having e-mail problems,
hence the p-mail; list postings might not reach me). Spots for fossil
molluscs too, though I already have a good list of these...
I am aware that there will be no decently low tides in the next couple
of months, but I'll just have to live with that.
