Molluscan Forum 2013 The Malacological Society of London was founded in 1893 and registered as a charity in 1978 (Charity Number 275980) Number 62 (February 2014) The Malacologist Page 2 EDITORIAL It is with great regret that we note the deaths of two important contributors to the field of malacology, Professor Bryan Campbell Clarke FRS (1932 – 2014) and Dr Stuart ‘Bill’ Bailey 1942-2014 Bryan Clarke was a university teacher and a leading geneticist who investigated speciation in Partula land snails on the volcanic islands of the Eastern Pacific. The Partula species complex was devastated by the introduced carnivorous snail Euglandina in the latter part of the twentieth century. Along with Jim Murray and Michael Johnson, Bryan Clarke was one of the saviours of some of the Partula species described so exquisitely by Crampton. -

Eine Idee führte zu der Tondich- tung Indra, die jener vedischen Gottheit gewidmet ist, die die produktiven Kräfte der Natur verkörpert. So gilt Indra – der »König« der Götter – als Gott des Kampfes und der Krieger, der Fruchtbarkeit, der Schöpfung, des Sturmes und Regens – und somit des Himmels. Dort regiert er gemein- sam mit seiner Göttergattin Indrani über Gustav Holst eine Art »Kriegerparadies« in den Wolken.

Petition to Maine's Congressional Delegation
Haskell Rock Pitch, East Branch of the Penobscot Photo by Mark Picard We Support a New National Park and National Recreation Area To Maine’s Congressional Delegation: We urge you to support the creation of a 150,000‐acre National Park and National Recreation Area east of Baxter State Park, as proposed by Elliotsville Plantation, Inc. The proposed National Park and National Recreation Area would have significant conservation and recreation benefits, and would also stimulate much‐needed economic development in the Katahdin region. That is why the proposal has earned the endorsement of the Katahdin Area Chamber of Commerce and Katahdin Rotary Club, among others. We urge you to support legislation in Washington, D.C. to establish the new National Park and National Recreation Area. Respectfully, 13,580 people from 371 Maine cities and towns, 50 U.S. states, and 53 nations Maine Ted Asherman (Falmouth, ME) David Asselin (Rockland, ME) Tammy Abbott (Holden, ME) Catherine Athay (Trenton, ME) Victoria Abbott (Chelsea, ME) Daniel Atkins (Brunswick, ME) Ann Adams (Portland, ME) Joan Atkinson (Vassalboro, ME) Gina Adams (Longmont, ME) Roberta Atkinson (Damariscotta, ME) Lorette Adams (Mars Hill, ME) Phillip Attean (Indian Island, ME) Susan Adams (Augusta, ME) Debbie Atwood (Bath, ME) Susanna Adams (Portland, ME) Joan Atwood (Bath, ME) Jean Adamson (Hampden, ME) Mary Atwood (Kennebunk, ME) Marlene Aguilar (Lewiston, ME) Buck Auchincloss (Waterville, ME) Gertrude Akers (Andover, ME) David Auclair (Augusta, ME) Tim Akers (Andover, ME) Lisa Audino (Northport, -
