Fauna molluscorum extramarinorum Japoniae, authored by J. J. Rein and Wilhelm Kobelt, is a significant 19th-century scientific study of the non-marine mollusks of Japan. Published in Latin, this work provides a detailed catalogue and description of the various species of snails, slugs, and other mollusks found in Japan's terrestrial and freshwater environments. This meticulous study contributes to the broader field of malacology and offers valuable insights into the biodiversity of Japan during this period.
This volume remains an important resource for researchers and historians of science interested in the natural history of Japan and the classification of molluscan species. Its detailed observations and systematic approach reflect the scientific rigor of 19th-century zoological research.
