Gassies, J.B.
Tableau méthodique et descriptif des mollusques terrestres et d'eau douce de l'Agenais / Malacologie terrestre et d’eau douce de la région intra-littorale de l’Aquitaine.
1849 / 1867 209, [4], 30 p., four hand-coloured engraved plates, heightened with gum arabic, and one plain lithographed plate, unbound (no covers - should be bound). With author’s dedication.One of the 19th century publications on French local faunas. This one covers the rich non-marine malacofauna north of the Pyrenees, and is much better illustrated and of more scientific importance than most. The second paper on Aquitanian land and freshwater molluscs (with one plain plate) is much more uncommon than the first.The French malacologist Jean Gassies (1816-1883) mainly studied the French continental fauna and is the author of many new species. The plates drawn by A. Laboulbène and M. Lespiault and engraved by F. Plée are beautifully handcoloured.

Schmidt, Bemerkungen zur Schalenstruktur von Neopilina galatheae (pp. 73-78, 2 pls). Ex library Alan J. Kohn (with his signature).On May 6, 1952, ten living specimens of an extraordinary mollusc were discovered. While trawling off the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, the Danish deep-sea "Galathea" expedition hauled these specimens to the ocean surface from a depth of 3590 meters. They were given the name Neopilina galathea and their discovery has been described as "the most dramatic one in the history of malacology." Before that date these limpet like shells were only known as fossils and this was the first time a living representative of the class Monoplacophora was found. It's nearest fossil relative lived in the Silurian 400 million years ago. Needless to say that this anatomical study has great historical value.

Almost every French département had its own keen malacologist tackling the local malacofauna. This one, by Claude Joseph Albin Gras (1808-1856) deals with the malacofauna of the Alpine department of Isère, in south-eastern France. With a handwritten 8-page index combining both the main work and the supplement, and including plate references and a tally of all the figured and unfigured species. This index a bit shaved at the fore edge, with some loss.
