Picture 1 - Hexaplex erythrostomus, previously identified.
Picture 2 - Can't make out any detail in the object at center, but in the upper left corner is an operculum from a Pleuroploca princeps, a species I tentatively identified on one of your earlier posts. It may have come from that shell.
Picture 3 - Melongena patula.
Picture 4 - Quite a display, but not enough detail to identify anything.
Picture 5 - Most of these I have identified above, however the shell at the right is Babylonia japonica, which is not a Panamic species. It is from the western Pacific.
