Abstract/Summary

The shell collection was done during the months of July, August, and September, 1993 at Panukulan, Polilio Island, Quezon. Three hundred shells were collected within the distance of 200-500 meters from the shoreline. All the shells collected were alive. Identification of the shells were done using taxonomic keys by: Springsteen and Leobrera (1986), Dance (1974), Linder (1977), and Spencer (1959) and verification was done by the Conchology Department of the National Museum. The molluscan shells identified belong to thirty-three families, forty-five genera and seventy-four species.
