A "highlight" of the Nouvelle École in French malacology, including an astonishing number of species. Interestingly, the number of valid freshwater mussel species is on the rise again. Written by the French malacologist and 'Nouvelle École' adept, Étienne Alexandre Arnould Locard (1841-1904). Contained in the society's Annales, Volume 36, together with a few, much smaller, other contributions. Uncut. an excellent, clean copy.
