Dear all, especially Nelly,

 From time to time I still see the old name Mercierella popping up, so just 
a reminder that I brought that genus into the synonymy of Ficopomatus some 
decades ago:

Always wanted to visit the ZMA for a bit of research, but you never had the 
funds?
Now you have a chance if you apply for a grant from SYNTHESYS, funded by 
the European Commission.
If you are a resident of an EU country or an EU aspirant member state, look 
at the link on the ZMA homepage, or visit the website:

The Zoological museum is distributed over several buildings, all close to 
the Artis Zoo .
