Dear James,
 
hope you got one of my previous message. If you like to have some
landshells from Austria, I can send you some nice species from my
zones, nice as a starting collection. Also some micro inlandshells of
2 - 4 mm sorted out from mould, earth and so on, all the species full
with data.
yours Helmut
