Special Publication 26 This new edition of Common and Scientific Names of Invertebrates from the United States and Canada: Mollusks represents the efforts of 15 molluscan taxonomic specialists in compiling a comprehensive checklist of the mollusks found in North America and Canada and their vernacular names. Built upon the success of the first edition, the authors have updated the nomenclature to reflect recent phylogenetic analyses and have included over 300 new species.Compiled in cooperation with the Council of Systematic Malacologists and the American Malacological Union, this standard of nomenclature covers the 6,272 marine, freshwater, and terrestrial mollusks. Many vernacular names have been added in this edition. Species are listed phylogenetically by class, order, and family, and they are indexed alphabetically by genus, species, and common name. This new edition is an invaluable reference book for scientific work and communication. A companion CDROM contains the text and figures from the book, allowing professionals and researchers electronic access to all the data contained in the book. Users can rapidly search for specific text strings and retrieve text for use in compiling, maintaining, and developing their own lists based on the second edition nomenclature. Strategic links allow quick and easy navigation between the various data elements. The disk contains installation routines for a wide variety of computer platforms including Windows 3.1, Windows 95, Macintosh, and Unix operating systems.This book includes:* over 6,200 species of marine, freshwater, and terrestrial mollusks* changes and additions to the first edition nomenclature* updated lists of endangered and possibly extinct species* general overview of molluscan biology and ecology* information about collecting and collections* recommendations for guidebooks and keys* directory of major North American museum collections* 50 color photographs
