The phototype plates show landscapes and habitats, the text figures crustacean species, including amphipods, ostracods, etc. This work is of key importance to North African freshwater crustaceology: "Since 1928, Henri Gauthier has been the only zoologist to describe the extant non-marine ostracod fauna of Tunisia" (Zaibi et al.).
