I can help you to establish and maintain / administer a Company in Cyprus and set up efficient tax structures to safe a lot of taxes.
For Mollusca:
1) Seashells of the Arabian Gulf, by Smythe (1982)
2) Seashells of Eastern Arabia, by Bosch, Dance, Moolenbeek & Oliver (1996) also covers Arabian Gulf species.
Plus many papers by the same authors in Journal of Conchology, etc.
Dear Najat,
You can find some key in the attached manuscript regarding some key tool for identification of marine fish species of Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh?
Thank you all for your help.
But I'm also looking for references on other categories like Crustaceans ( I collect more than 600 species) and Bryozoans ( 30 species) and foraminifera (30 species) if any one can help me I would be appreciate that.
