A rare, complete set of the palaeontological results of two expeditions to eastern Somalia, which, at the time, was governed by Italy. It deals mostly with Foraminifera and Mollusca, chiefly from Mesozoic age, or Plio-Pleistocene age. This is Palaeontographia Italica Memorie di Paleontologia XXXII, with four supplements in the reprint edition. The original series was published in Pisa and is even more rare. A very good, unmarked set.
