Félix Pierre Jousseaume
Félix Pierre Jousseaume (12 April 1835 in Charente-Maritime – 3 November 1921) was a French Zoology, zoologist and malacologist. He studied medicine in Paris where he then practised. His thesis was ''Des Végétaux parasites de l'Homme''. He participated in the founding of the Société zoologique de France and was President of that society in 1878. After 1890 he abandoned his practice to study malacology. He made many trips to the Red Sea, giving his collections to the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle. Jousseaume wrote many short scientific papers mainly published in ''Naturaliste, revue illustrée des sciences naturelles'', ''les Nouvelles archives des missions scientifiques et littéraires'', ''la Revue et magasin de zoologie'', and ''le Bulletin de la Société zoologique de France''. He also wrote in 1899 ''La Philosophie aux prises avec la Mer Rouge, le darwinisme et les 3 règnes des corps organisés'' (A. Maloine, Paris : xii + 559 p.), in 1907 ''De l'Attraction et ...

Richard Kilburn
Richard Neil "Dick" Kilburn (Port Elizabeth, 7 January 1942– 26 July 2013) was a South African malacologist. He attended the University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg, majoring in zoology and botany and graduated in 1967. After a brief spell as a teacher, he started his career at a malacological position at the East London Museum. Already 18 months later he became the malacologist at the Natal Museum, where he would spend the rest of his career. Under his stewardship the Mollusca collection of this museum was to become by far the largest such collection in Africa. He increased the catalogued lot from 9000 specimens to nearly 150,000. He expanded considerably the book collection of the museum on key literature to establish a molluscan research centre, essential for research in these pre-computer days. He started an active programme of field research on Mollusca. In later life he specialized in the description and research of species in the family Turridae, continuing during his retir ...
