His pioneering research on molluscs was mainly concentrated in the western part of the Mediterranean Sea and in the Middle East. He was a prolific writer on malacofauna. But his interests also extended to other fields of zoology,[2]geology and in particular the prehistory of Northern Africa. He became known as the "Dean of North African Prehistory." In 1892 he discovered, together with François Doumergue, several paleolithic and neolithic caves at Cuartel and Kouchet El Djir.
He named more than 100 mollusc species and even a few genera (Adansonia Pallary, 1902; Corbula (Physoida) Pallary, 1900; Orania Pallary, 1900) [3]
Ten species have been named in his honour, some of which have become synonyms:[4]
Arbacina pallaryi Gauthier, 1897 : synonym of Genocidaris maculata A. Agassiz, 1869
Cirsotrema pallaryi de Boury, 1912 : synonym of Cirsotrema cochlea (Sowerby G.B. II, 1844)
