To members of Conch-L, I am a collector of Korean shells, land, marine, and freshwater, currently living in Korea. I am attempting to obtain any information available on the shells of this country. Specifically, I would like to know: 1: What books are available and where I can purchase them 2: Any papers or monographs published on Korean molluscs and where I can obtain them 3: The name of any Korean biology journal that also deals with molluscs (I can get any papers written in Korean translated.) 4: The names of anyone who collects Korean shells, either in this country, or elsewhere. (I am looking for an exchange of information and, possibly, shells.) 5: Suggestions on the best collecting locations in Korea. To summarize, any information on Korean shells would be greatly appreciated. As I live in a small apartment, I am not ready to exchange shells, except with another collector of Korean shells. I hope someone out there can help me. Regards, Ron __________________________________________________________ Get your FREE personalized e-mail at http://www.canada.com
