Nice!  Wink
Hi!

It's a lovely collection! Truly impressive!
I don't suppose you happen to have a name for the small cream coloured bivalve in picture 5 with the brown lines. I have half of one and I can't put a name to it.

Again, absolutely lovely!

Best wishes,

Emma.
Emma, I think it is Lioconcha castrensis in the family Veneridae. There are a few in the genus that are very similar.
Thanks Dave!
