Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Henry Augustus Pilsbry (7 December 1862 in Iowa City, Iowa - 26 October 1957 in Lantana, Florida) was an American biologist, malacologist and carcinologist, among other areas of study. He was a dominant presence in many fields of invertebrate taxonomy for the better part of a century. For much of his career, his authority with respect to the classification of certain substantial groups of organisms was unchallenged: barnacles, chitons, North American terrestrial mollusks, and others.
