Instructions for authors wishing to submit articles to Mollusc World

Mollusc World is published 3 times a year by the Conchological Society of Great Britain & Ireland, at the end of March, July and November, and is issued free of charge to members. It is intended as a medium for communication between members on all aspects of molluscs from archeology to life in the sea, field collecting at home and abroad and even eating molluscs. If you look back on the content over the last three years we include articles, field meeting reports, research news, results from the mapping schemes and identification keys. We welcome all contributions in whatever form they arrive.
