Lameere, A. et al. [P. Pelseneer] — Mélanges Paul Pelseneer.

1936 1206 p., numerous figs & pls. Later brown cloth with gilt title on spine (original printed covers bound in). Paul Pelseneer was one of the leading Belgian malacologists before WWII. His "Festschrift" deals mainly with molluscan subjects, including papers by Lameere (Histoire de la classification des mollusques), Yonge (the evolution of the swimming habit in the Lamellibranchia), Lamy, Steenberg, Adam & Leloup (Les Crepidula de la cote occidentale de l'Afrique), Dollfus, de Selys Lonchamps, Odhner (Nudibranchia Dendronotacea. A revision of the system; this being a large paper with new genera and species) and many others. Title page and dedication page spotted, otherwise very good. Copies in original wrappers are often broken as the binding is too weak for such a big volume. This copy, however, has a tight, sound binding.
