Dear MoFA community!

We can look back on a very successful year 2019, with two excursions, two presentations, the MoFA annual conference in Salzburg and finally the publication of Arianta 7, the current volume of the societies’ magazine.

Before the publication is after the publication: We invite you to submit manuscripts for Arianta 8. If you have interesting observations, studies or reports on mollusks that you would like to publish in Arianta, send your manuscript (as a Word text file) together with figures and tables to helmut.sattmann@nhm-wien.ac.at. When submitting, please follow the guidelines for authors.

Arianta is published annually and publishes scientific works on extant and fossil molluscs. Regional faunistic contributions are also expressly welcome. Arianta is published digitally and is available on the MoFA website. Authors receive PDFs of their articles for free use. Manuscripts are subjected to an editorial check for suitability for our journal and to an external review by two experts.

Please submit your manuscripts until 30. June 2020.

Dear friends of malacology!

Just before the middle of the year, the new newsletter of the Malakologische Arbeitsgemeinschaft Salzburg has been completed.

Bobby Patzner and his team hope you enjoy reading and wish you a nice – and successful – summer!

We would like to draw your attention to the recently published comprehensive bibliography of the literature Mollusks of Austria, which Alexander Reischütz, Peter L. Reischütz and Wolfgang Fischer compiled.

Part of the literature listed in that work can also be found (partly for download) on our literature page.
Further entries for our literature page are welcome (E-Mail: team@molluskenforschung.at).
