Featured Shells

Gastropoda

Leporicypraea valentia

A great example of this spectacular species.
Gastropoda

Ancistrolepis grammata

Best possible condition for the species, and large size.
Gastropoda

Tudivasum simonaikeni

An all-white specimen. Although I've seen a couple of white specimens before, this is the first truly adult one I've seen with an intact protoconch.
Gastropoda

Volutharpa perryi ainos

Amazing species with a thin shell but a very thick periostracum.
Gastropoda

Chonospeira nuda

Impossible to get now. From 600m depth.
Gastropoda

Tropidophora occlusa

It is very close to T. cuvieriana and in my opinion it may be revealed to be simply a dwarf form.
Gastropoda

Annularia rosenbergi

Very desirable species from Saint Catherine Parish. Amazing lip and very unusual operculum.
Gastropoda

Ficadusta pulchella

Very hard to get this quality now.
