Ellis and Messina Catalogues

Complete type-descriptions for genus- and species-level taxa with the original text, illustrations and charts, exactly as given in the author's (western European) language or translated by professionals. The precise Type Level, Type Locality, and curatorial data are added for each taxon. Bibliographic and taxonomic references are expanded to full citations and scrupulously verified. 400 to 500 taxa are added yearly to each catalogue. The current edition has more than 44,000 Foraminifera, 25,000 Ostracoda, and 6,000 Diatom genera and species. Available printed, on CD-ROM, and on the internet.
