| Comments and Corrigenda |
The figures aren't numbered quite sequentially. No doubt there was a good reason, but it can be slightly confusing. |
| Coverage |
About 140 commonest of the 230+ British species known at the time. The others are rare. |
| Illustrations |
Line drawings. |
| Identify |
In the Hand (also useful to examine with x8 or x10 hand lens). |
| Difficulty |
The keys are for identifying whole animals. Features of the soft parts are often used so there may be problems identifying dead shells. |
