We are pleased to announce a new book:
Atlas of Mediterranean seashells vol. 5 (Heterobranchia)
by Riccardo Giannuzzi Savelli, Francesco Pusateri,
Pasquale Micali, Italo Nofroni & Stefano Bartolini
This volume is dedicated to the clade of Heterobranchia that includes
the superfamilies Architectonicoidea, Homalogyroidea, Pyramidelloidea,
Murchisonelloidea, Rissoelloidea, and the remaining Valvatoidea
Heterobranchia not yet assigned to any superfamily.
In consideration of the variability of interspecific pyramidellid
snails and the difficulty in perceiving the diagnostic characters,
albeit by good photographs, we decided to attach an appendix to the
volume with which to offer to the reader the cards of each species with
the morphological characters more easily identifiable.
The book, in addition to the text, including 41 color plates with about
900 photos, relating to the 210 recognized species living in the
Mediterranean. In total there are 210 pages, hard bound with pictorial
dust cover.
TEXT ARE IN ITALIAN WITH ENGLISH COMPLETE TRANSLATION
The writing of this book tooks more than four years of work both for
the objective difficulties related to the taxonomy of the group still
unresolved and for the retrieval of all the material.
