The first volume includes Cypraea - 10 beautiful plates, also 2 plates on
Ovulidae and Triviidae. You can buy the volumes separately, though the
second one includes cones and muricids, so it's worth having the set. Most
dealers in shell books should stock this wonderful publication, but it isn't
cheap! The publisher is Odyssey Publishing in Kallaroo, Western Australia,
but there's a USA representative - John D. Jackson, 11558 Rolling Hills
Drive, El Cajon, CA 92020. Telephone 619 579 8405, facsimile 619 579 7901.
In case you need it the ISBN for volume 1 is 0 646 15226 2, and for the set
its 0 646 15225 4.
Best wishes
