Covers all of the new names created by Pilsbry & his co-authors for both Recent & Fossil forms in the Mollusca & Crustacea. These names range in taxa from those above the family level to subspecies, varieties & forms. This work had its inception when the authors found it necessary to ¿card out¿ the new names which Pilsbry had instituted so that these names might be used in their own current problems of research in the field of malacology. As time went on, this catalogue increased in size & became a source of information to the staff. Its publication has make available a large file of data not easily located elsewhere. He introduced 5,680 names over a period of 75 years; he introduced more names than any other student in the field of malacology.
