This two-volume book lists all known molluscs from the French Caribbean, an area covering St Lucia to Anguilla and all the intervening islands. Most of the species listed are illustrated. There are 785 pages, 253 colour plates and numerous colour photographs within the text, many showing living molluscs. Text is brief but concise, and the entire geographical range of each species is given, not just the range within the area covered. Depth, habitat and other data are also provided. This book will be useful to anyone wishing to identify shells from the Caribbean.
A full review will appear in the April 2019 issue of Pallidula.
