A shell museum in Sicily, a photo and malacology

Malacology? Almost 5.000 shells in South Italy... Everything because of an idea  of a woman, Vanna Rotolo Lombardo, and from some seas in the world and the sea of Porto Palo - please see the link to a map below. About 1.700 shells out of them are exposed in three rooms with the names of famous world malacologists.
