What is this?
During last 40 years I have collected many species of mollusks from more than 38 country especially those species which are distributed in the Indo-Pacific region including the Makran (Oman) Sea, Red Sea and the Persian Gulf.
I have decided to present my collection online for those scientists and museum managers who are interested in.
