UPDATE: 5 January 2014. There have bee some delay in making the collection accessible at the Angela Marmont Centre. We hope that the problems have now been overcome, and expect the collection to start to beavailable within the next two months. We are as ever grateful to Michele Dardano, John Fisher, Jan Light, David McKay, Terry O'Connor, Graham Saunders and Bryan Wasson for the generous donation of specimens. A second list of wants will be posted once what we already have has been made accessible.
This is a list of the most-wanted species at the moment. All help is much appreciated: if you are willing to provide specimens of any of them, please let me know, and either bring them to the next meeting or send them (to The Mill House, Clifford Bridge, Drewsteignton, Exeter EX6 6QE). Names and numbering follow the present Conch. Soc. record card. Species which are not on the record card would also be welcome; I have already added some to the wants list (the ones without a number). The list will be updated when species are offered and received; I will try to keep this up-to-date to avoid duplication of effort.
Once given, specimens cannot be returned as they will be accessioned into the Natural History Museum's collection; the donor's name will be given on the label unless the donor requests anonymity.
