Lyon, Société Linnéenne de Lyon, 1900-1901. Three parts in two. Large 8vo (25.7 x 17.9 cm). 296 pp. [193-272; 1-80, 159-294]. Original, uniform printed wrappers. = The rarest work in the series, Conchyliologie Française. The three other works, by Locard alone, deal with marine, freshwater and terrestrial molluscs from continental France. These are rather common. This is the original publication, published in the society's Annales, new series Volumes 46 and 47 (for 1899 and 1900). Soon it became available as a single, repaginated work, issued in Paris by J. B. Baillière. Arnould Locard (1841-1904) was one of France's most prolific malacologists. Eugène Caziot (1844-1931) is renowned for his great work on the terrestrial molluscs of Monaco and adjacent parts of France. Uncut. Simple tear in first volume's front wrapper, and second volume wrapper's spine top and bottom; otherwise, an excellent, clean copy. Internally immaculate. Cat. BM(NH) p. 1161.…
