Chitons form a peculiar and highly interesting class of molluscs, knownwith certainty to exist since the Ordovician, and widespread in allworld seas, with great concentrations along the west coast of NorthAmerica and in Australia, to depths from 0 to over 7,000 m. During thepast decades taxonomists all over the world have much contributed to ourknowledge of the chitons and their synonymy.

The 5 volumes,published since 1985 have now been collected on this CD-ROM, and willthus provide a wealth of information, including illustrations and mapsabout the worldwide distribution, of know species. Details of all 5published volumes can be found on www.brill.nl.
Easy navigation and full search features are ensured through hyperlinksin the text, figures, maps, and (cumulative) index. This CD-ROM is,therefore, a must-have for anyone interested inmalacology.
