Description

The Freshwater Mollusca of Northern Africa

Distribution, Biogeography, and Palaeoecology

by Dirk Van Damme

ISBN 9061935024, ©1984 by Dr. W. Junk Publishers, Dordrecht, the Netherlands, hardcover, the page size is about 6.5 by 10 inches or 17.5 by 25.5 cm., 164 pages of text and 11 additional pages of the preface and table of contents, the text contains 144 figures consisting of pen and ink drawings of specimen mollusks, distribution maps, and tables.

"The Freshwater Mollusca of Northern Africa" is a study of the freshwater molluscan species found in the Recent and past eras. It is thorough in its descriptions of the shells, and the drawings are clear, making identifications easy. The range of the study is from the Atlantic Coast to the Red Sea, encompassing the entire width of North Africa. This is the first copy of this book that I have seen, and a search turned up only three other books in Europe and priced significantly higher than this copy. I do not expect this book to have a great deal of appeal to general shell collectors, but it is an essential tool to those interested in the unique shells found in the region that is studied. This book is in new condition.
