News and publications

There is a variety of ways of keeping up-to-date with Society activities, views of members and interesting discoveries.

Mollusc world

Mollusc World is the Society's full colour newsletter. Three issues are produced each year which are available free to members or can be purchased individually from the Society. Older issues (two years following publication) are gradually being made available on-line:

Journal of Conchology

The Journal of Conchology is published by the Society twice a year and includes more scientific papers and short communications on molluscs. The contents cover, typically, descriptions of new species from anywhere in the world and reports concerning the ecology, distribution and status of molluscs. The Journal is not currently made available on-line though the index to recent issues can be viewed. Again, the publication is available free to members or can be purchased separately. Index to most recent volumes:

Index to older volumes is also available.

News bulletins

 Short, current news articles are also periodically published on-line.

Special publications

Periodically the Society produces 'special publications' that are produced in the same format as the Journal of Conchology but have a particular theme. Currently three of these publications are available.
