THE VELIGER
The Veliger (ISSN 0042-3211) is an international, peer-reviewed scientific quarterly published by the California Malacozoological Society, a non-profit educational organization. The Veliger is open to original papers pertaining to any problem connected with mollusks. Manuscripts are considered on the understanding that their contents have not appeared, or will not appear, elsewhere in substantially the same or abbreviated form. Holotypes of new species must be deposited in a recognized public museum, with catalogue numbers provided. Even for non-taxonomic papers, placement of voucher specimens in a museum is strongly encouraged and may be required.
Very short papers, generally not over 750 words, are published in a "Notes, Information & News" column; in this column also appear notices of meetings and other items of interest to our members and subscribers.
