Mollusks include snails and slugs clams octopus and squid , and numerous other kinds, many (but by no means all) of which have shells . One division of malacology, conchology , is devoted to the study of mollusk shells. Fields within malacological research include taxonomy ecology and evolution . Applied malacology studies medical, veterinary, and agricultural applications, for example mollusks as vectors of disease, as in schistosomiasis Archaeology employs malacology to understand the evolution of the climate , the biota of the area, and the usage of the site.

The American Malacological Society is: A dynamic international society of individuals and organizations with an active interest in the study and conservation of mollusks. Professional malacologists, students, and people devoted to observing, photographing, and learning about mollusks belong to AMS (formerly the American Malacological Union). The history of the organization dates back to its founding in 1931. Continuing interests of the AMS: Encouragement of students in malacology is a priority. Monetary awards for outstanding student papers and posters are presented at each annual meeting. AMS recognizes the important role played by serious molluscan enthusiasts who often work with professional malacologists. They are encouraged to be active members. Annual meeting activities include the book auction and reprint sales which support the AMS symposium fund.

Advancing Vermont Malacology -or- Finding lime recycled after half a billion years of mineral inertia (updated 9/11/04) By Harry G. Lee My wife's birthday occasioned a visit to her family's "Homestead" just north of Manchester Center, Bennington County, Vermont over the weekend of September 26-28, 2003. Aside from the indoor and patio festivities, the two dozen or so visitors enjoyed an assortment of outdoor recreation ranging from jogging, hiking, and fly-fishing to pet burial, fence-dismantling, and, needless to say for the honoree's spouse, prospecting for shells. Mt. Equinox, Vermont photograph by Suzie Lawrence The Homestead is located in the valley of the fabled trout stream, the Batten Kill, as it winds its way to the Hudson River between mountain ranges. Two crests dominate the western horizon: Mt. Equinox (highest point 3848 feet above sea level) in the SW and a lower ridge also belonging to theTaconic Mts. (Mt. Aeolus, Owls Head, Netop and Dorset Mt.) to the NW. On the second day, when the mist had risen high enough in the morning sky, I was able to make out a bare whitish scarp on the north flank of Mt. Aeolus, which rises about 2400 feet. I inquired about this feature, and my mother- and brother-in law confirmed my suspicion that this was a marble quarry - one of a group of two dozen excavations on the slopes of Dorset Mountain and Mt. Aeolus.

Malacology From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search Malacology is the study of mollusks . These animals include snails slugs clams mussels ... squid , and many other kinds of animals without backbones that are often found in the sea, but sometimes in lakes and rivers, and on land. Most of them have shells , but not all of them. Some people save these shells because they may be very pretty. Many people eat mollusks, especially those people who live near the ocean. Scientists study mollusks to learn how many kinds there are, where they are found, how they came to be as they are, and what their lives are like, as well as many other things about them.
