Abstract

The historic malacological collections “Cleto Sánchez Falcón” and “M. L. Jaume” housed in the Museo de Historia Natural “Tomás Romay” and Museo “Jorge Ramón Cuevas” were revised, and the label data of type material was copied. The validity of the information on labels for each lot was revised with the original descriptions for all species, taxonomic revisions of families and updated catalogues. In total 434 specimens included in 56 subspecies, 34 species, six (6) families, 85 localities and 16 collectors were registered. The collection “Cleto Sánchez Falcón” has 368 especimens, from the families Annullaridae, Cerionidae, Megalomastomidae, Helicinidae, Orthalicidae and Urocoptidae; being the last one the best represented. The collection “M. L. Jaume” has 66 especimens, of 36 subspecies of Liguus fasciatus (Müller), Orthalicidae.
