Goodluck,
Diocris.
Since nobody yet try to figure out the id of the species. I deepen my search to id the names of the shells that i link. I've concentrated on femorale's photo gallery.

#1.  I think number 1 is in the MACTRIDAE family and not tellinidae. the nearest i can figure is Pseudoxyperas aspersum, but i'm not sure.

#2.  Perhars in the PSAMMOBIIDAE family? Soletellina ecolorata. only the size is the question.

#3.  Perhaps its a KELLIELLIDAE or  KELLIIDAE specie.

All this might be incorrect. Unless someone help me to confirm it.
