A new species of the family Cassidae Swainson, 1832 is described from deep water off Western Australia. The new species belongs to the genus Oocorys Fischer, 1883. The Oocorythinae live in deep to very deep water (120 m to more than 4500 m). The new species is compared with the similar looking Iicorys lussii Bozzetti, 1990 from the Western Indian Ocean now is regarded as a form of Iicorys verrilli (Dall, 1889).

Since the publication of the 1st volume on Turbinidae in 2003, several articles have been published and yielded a lot of new information on the family as well as the different genera and species. The following species meanwhile were described and are now extensively figured for the first time within the Iconography: Lunella jungi, L. ogasawarana, Turbo (Senectus) angelvaldesi, T. (Maramarostoma) markusrufi, and T. (Turbo) walteri. 4+6 pp., 8 col. Pls., punched loose-leaf 4.…

This book is a portrait of the Gastropod family Xenophoridae: marine snails with the peculiar behaviour of attaching foreign objects to their shells. Their name is derived from Greek Xenos = foreign and phoros = carrier. Carrier shells have inhabited the sea floors of tropical and subtropical oceans for eons, recycling empty shells of molluscs, as well as pieces of dead corals, stones, sunken wood, coal, and even teeth shed by sharks. Only very recently, broken glass, coins, bottle caps, can openers, and pieces of plastic appeared in their environments; things produced and dumped in the sea by man. 96 pp., full color, hardcover gr. 8 [19.5 x 27.5 cm].…

After studying more than 5000 shells belonging to the family Cassidae, we tried to judge objectively, avoiding both splitting and lumping and thus only presenting our survey's finds. So, according to this study, 98 species are recognised, divided among the Genus Cassis Scopoli, 1777, Subgenus Cassis s.str. Scopoli, 1777, Subgenus Hypocassis Iredale, 1927, Genus Cypraecassis Stutchbury, 1837, Subgenus Cypraecassis s.str. Stutchbury, 1837, Subgenus Levenia Gray, 1847, Genus Galeodea Link, 1807, Genus Sconsia Gray, 1847, Genus Microsconsia Beu, 2008, Genus Oocorys P. Fischer, 1883, Genus Dalium Dall, 1889, Genus Eucorys Beu, 2008, Genus Phalium Link, 1807, Genus Casmaria H. & A. Adams, 1853, Genus Echinophoria Sacco, 1890, Genus Semicassis Mörch, 1852, Subgenus Semicassis s.str. Mörch, 1852, and Subgenus Antephalium Iredale, 1927. Since the past few decades DNA surveys have revolutionised nearly all areas of biological research, including malacology. However, we deem it necessary to state that this book is strictly conchological and that it was compiled for the use of those who wish to acquire an elementary acquaintance with the subject, as well as for authors and others who (eager to extend their knowledge and to pursue their researches) require a book of reference containing a general outline of what has been done by those who have trodden the same path before. 251 pp., 131 color pls, num. text figs, hc 4.…
