Descrizione

It can be called at least a nomenclatural refreshing book and it is a trendsetter for the future taxonomy in cowries. 6 new species of cowries are described, 16 new subspecies and 14 new subspecies by taxonomic validation etc. etc. At first glance, this may be a surprise to many people, but when carefully reading the text, it is clear that Lorenz is right in the vast majority of his decisions. The text part is enriched by an extensive iconographical part and explains in detail all changes made.
