Abstract

All of us who work with freshwater Mollusca, whether living or fossil, encounter considerable numbers of freshwater ostracodes in the collections that we study. It seems a pity not to use our opportunities in this field by laying aside fossil or living ostracodes for identification by specialists. Similarly, workers in freshwater Mollusca should be aware of the significance, particularly in ecology and paleoecology, of this prolific group of arthropods. For this reason, a few recent papers on ostr·acodes are noted below and the co-operation of readers of Sterkiana is invited.
