Apparently this is a problem.

The homepage was made in 1996 and we could not be aware of how things went
at that time.
So, the black background was made especially against printing out. Also, it
should have been unfair at that time to give the information free that
others paid for when buying the Listing of Living Mollusca (which gives
150000 references to the literature extra).
Now most is sold out, but maybe Conchbooks or Cossignani still have some
copies.

The homepage will be reworked towards end october/beginning november, and it
will be possible to download the texts perfectly printable.

With best regards,

Guido
