List of malacologists

American malacologists at a Washington meeting in 1914.Bryant Walker (1856-1936) (back left),George Hubbard Clapp (1858–1949),Truman Heminway Aldrich (1848-1932),John Brooks Henderson Jr. (1870-1923) (back right),Henry Augustus Pilsbry (1862-1957) (front left),William Healey Dall (1845-1927) (front center),Paul Bartsch (1871-1960) (front right).

This is a list of malacologists, i.e. a list of people whostudy or studied mollusks. This is a list of notable scien-tists, biologists, zoologists or naturalists, who are or wereinterested in malacology, which is the scientific study ofthe Mollusca, i.e. snails, clams, octopus, etc. People whospecialize in studying only or primarily the shells of mol-lusks are sometimes called conchologists instead of mala-cologists. Many of these malacologists are notable forhaving named species and other taxa of mollusks.This list focuses primarily on people who study or stud-ied recent taxa of mollusks rather than fossil mollusks,i.e., only a few paleontologists are included here. The listincludes malacologists who are still alive, as well as thosewho lived in previous centuries. The list also includes re-searchers who devoted some of their research effort tomalacology and some to other sciences.*[1]*[2]Considering that mollusks are such a very large and di-verse phylum of invertebrates, malacology in general isgreatly understaffed in its research efforts.*[3] For ex-ample, there is no living malacological expert who canproperly identify all the species of Onchidiidae (about143 species).*[4] There are also not enoughmalacologistsstudying freshwater snails.*[5]Contents :
