1895-1901 113 p., 8vo (26.0 x 18.2 cm), near contemporary quarter cloth over plain boards. Spine with gilt author/title. Inscribed by the author in the top margin of the front wrapper to the Philippine malacologist Pedro de Mesa (1885-1966), and next to it the latter's dedication to the American malacologist William James "Bill" Clench (1897-1984); stamp of the American malacologist Richard Irwin Johnson (1925-2020) in the top margin of the front board, and on the front cover below Faustino's dedication. A fewl annotations, partly in red and blue pencil. Short tear in the fore edge of the first two leaves (repaired), lower outer corner of the front cover missing.A very seldom-seen paper by the Philippine malacologist Leopoldo Alcaraz Faustino (1892-1935). The introduction enumerates many, mostly 19th-century papers containing descriptions of Philippine molluscs. The very long species list has references to these works. It forms a supplement to the author's (1928) Summary of the Philippine marine and fresh-water mollusks, and contains an addendum to that work.
