What reading level is The History of the European Fauna book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So far the history of the Clausilice seems perfectly simple. An active centre of origin appears to exist in South-eastern Europe, from which the species radiate out in all directions. But when we come to look more closely into the extra-European distribution of the genus, and THE ORIENTAL MIGRATION. 263 especially when we examine its past history, we find that its origin is extremely complex, and dates back to a much more remote period than would have been imagined, had we merely taken into acc...ount its present range in our own continent. Professor Boettger, who is the highest authority on Clausilia, tells us that the genus is known from the earliest deposits of the Tertiary Era. About 700 species are now known, and these have been sub-divided by Professor Boettger and others into a number of sub-genera. Some of these are extinct, but the great majority are still living. The sub-genus Phcedusa occurs in the eocene and oligocene of Southern Europe, but it is extinct as far as our continent is concerned.
