Recent Reasearch and Revelations at the Shell Museum & Aquarium

By Dr. José H. Leal, Science Director and Curator, and Jorden Falker, Associate Director of Education As the only museum and aquarium devoted primarily to shells and mollusks, the Museum is in a unique position to observe, document, and share previously unknown characteristics of mollusks and their habitats, and baseline studies of their populations. In this talk, Dr. Leal and Jorden Falker share recent research and findings the Museum is involved with, including first-time observation of a threatening condition in Horse Conchs, the regional spread of the invasive Thrush Cowrie, assessments of local marine and land mollusk distributions, and more. Attendees will learn the latest and see some of the important work that goes on behind the scenes at the Museum.
