The Utah Mollusk Identification Guide offers up-to-date information
for identifying aquatic and terrestrial snails, slugs, clams, and
mussels within the state of Utah, providing comparative tables,
taxonomic keys, and more than 230 images, including many type
specimen images published for the first time. Amateur naturalists
and biologists alike will benefit from detailed information
regarding size, type, specimen location, junior synonyms (including
taxonomy notes), original descriptions for each of the 139 species,
and comments to help differentiate similar species. In contrast to
older guides, this book includes data on the external and internal
anatomy of mollusks. Taxonomic names are updated to incorporate the
latest information available. Family descriptions and miscellaneous
data on ecology, life history, and genetics are also presented.
Distribution data are based on historical articles, museum records,
personal observations, and collections. Although the focus is on
Utah mollusks, many species are widely distributed and the data,
images, references, and taxonomy details within the guide will be
of interest to many outside the state.
