The style I need citations in seems so far removed from the provided Biblatex styles that I'm unsure whether it's best to extensively modify an existing style or write a custom one; and not too sure how exactly to go about doing either. Full citations are to go in footnotes; no bibliography. Ibid. to be used where appropriate, but not op cit. Here is what I need:
ARTICLE:
First mention:
Allen Carlson, `Nature and Positive Aesthetics’, Environmental Ethics 6 (1984), 5–34, at 33–4.
Subsequent (if not Ibid.):
Carlson, `Nature and Positive Aesthetics’, 33-4.
(NB: only volume, no number)
BOOK:
First mention:
Donald Worster, Nature’s Economy: A History of Ecological Ideas (2nd edn, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1994), 471.
Subsequent:
Worster, Nature’s Economy, 19–38.
INBOOK and INCOLLECTION:
First mention:
Charles Shah Pittendrigh, `Adaption, Natural Selection, and Behavior’, in Anne Roe and George Simpson (eds), Behavior and Evolution (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1958), 390–416, at 400.
Subsequent:
Pittendrigh, `Adaption, Natural Selection, and Behavior’, 392.
Advice gratefully received!

verbose-ibidstyle, withibidpage=true, plus some modifications of the full citation style (mainly putting parentheses around the publication information). – Alan Munn Jun 23 '12 at 16:17.cbxfile which loadsverbose-ibidand then modifies all the rest. – Alan Munn Jun 23 '12 at 16:53biblatex-chicagoexcept with british style quotation marks, which would not be hard to change. Maybe adding the edition in parenthesis would need to be tweaked, too, but one needs a fuller spec before making those kind of changes. Can you point to an example bibliography or stylesheet somewhere? – jon Jun 23 '12 at 17:04verbose-ibidinstead of copying it entirely. – ienissei Jun 24 '12 at 15:40
