I rarely trade.   I don't expect anything in return for these micros, but
always appreciate reciprocity.  However, I do not collect freshwater
mollusks except when someone wants Florida freshwater specimens.  I kayak
the rivers and springs a lot and am always happy to see what Mollusks are
there for those interested.  Note also that a fellow ATSC member is Allan
Gettleman, who has an extensive collection of unionids I've frequently had
the opportunity to view and appreciate.

Do you have a microscope or other magnification device for ID's?

IMarlo,
I would be interested in the vial.  I am new to CONCH-L but have worked with
freshwater mussels for the last 20 years.  Since I am getting closer to
retirement I have decided to expand my interest to marine species.

I would send a small collection of freshwater unionids in return, if you
were interested.

Thanks,

Drew Miller



  Last winter I offered vials of west Florida micros to those interested.
  Domestic collectors only.  I have one vial left of about 60 shells and
crabs
  preserved in 70% isopropyl alcohol that had been reserved for a collector
  from whom I did not receive a reply.  I'm clearing my work area and would
  like to offer this vial to anyone interested.   I'd prefer to provide this
  material to someone other than the 12 collectors who received material
last
  year.   However, I will shortly begin my winter collecting campaign and
will
  again have surplus material.  So, if any of the 12 are interested in more,
  contact me.  Jan, I'll reserve you samples of all the Marginella species
  collected.

  If you are interested in the vial I have on hand contact me directly at
  marlo@cfl.rr.com

  Marlo
