Welcome to the 'New Zealand Mollusca' website.

I have spent the last few months re-writing and updating the website.

The checklist has been updated. I am also adding more information about each species, including common names of some species. The search functionality has been updated so you can search common names too.

Many of the pages on this updated site are still being written! Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Andrew Spurgeon
