These 2 specimens were found beached on the Atlantic coast of Portugal. My guesses are:
1) Mitra cornicula? (ca. 30mm) <a href="http://www.gastropods.com/6/Shell_2246.html" target="_blank"><!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.gastropods.com/6/Shell_2246.html">http://www.gastropods.com/6/Shell_2246.html</a><!-- m --></a>
2) Euspira guillemini? (ca 15mm) <a href="http://www.idscaro.net/sci/04_med/class/fam3/species/natica_guill1.htm" target="_blank"><!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.idscaro.net/sci/04_med/class/fam3/species/natica_guill1.htm">http://www.idscaro.net/sci/04_med/class ... guill1.htm</a><!-- m --></a>
Can someone confirm these 2 guesses? Or are they wrong?
Many thanks, Mike
