| Abstract |
This paper catalogues the Naticidae (Gastropoda) described by Constant A. Récluz, a French conchologist whose research interests focused on this family, as well as on the conchologically similar Neritidae. Récluz described about 100 species of Naticidae, type specimens for about 70 species are still extant. Most of the type specimens are in the Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle, Genève, but many of them are also in the British Museum (Natural History) or in the Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris. Subsequent citations to these species (by various authors) are included. |
