I am reasonably certain that most of the J de C collection is at the MNHN
in Paris (Laboratoire de Biologie des Invertébrés Marins et Malacologie),
where are all the signicant collections comprising the huge MNHN mollusk
collection. I suggest you contact and check this with one of the curators,
Philippe Bouchet, at [log in to unmask]
