South Africa:: Macmillan & Co.:, 1982. 249 pages, illustrated in color and b&w. "The seas that surround the shores of Southern Africa are rich in fascinating and sometimes bizarre sea-shell fauna. Of the approximately 3000 species, perhaps two-thirds are found nowhere else in the world, while most of the remainder are topical invaders from the western Indian Ocean, an area that has been little studied until now. In this book over 600 species are covered in detail, including most of the commoner ones and many of the more interesting rarities. Most species have been illustrated in full color, while over 200 supplementary text-figures, emphasize fine details, and diagnostic structures." FINE HARDCOVER, FINE- DUST JACKET.. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine-. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.

Sea Shells of Southern Africa by Richard Kilburn & Elizabeth Rippey 1982, Macmillan South Africa, cloth hardcover with printed jacket, 249pages about 9 by 11¾ inches, (23 by 30cm), contains 45 full page plates (color drawings) as well as over 200 text figures This is an excellent work that covers the more common and some of the rare shells that are found in the waters off South Africa. The unique geography of South Africa at the point where the Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean merge has produced a very special environment in which mollusks very different from any where else in the world have evolved. The authors estimate that some 3000 species of marine shells exist in these waters and that about 20% of these species are unique to S. Africa.
