Hi, can anybody ID this shell?
Is it a Nerita? Which kind?

I got it in Zanzibar (Tanzania): it is about 1 cm in size.
Please need Latin and English names.
Many thanks in advance,
Giovanni
Picture doesn't want to download.
This is a juvenile Nerita textilis Gmelin, 1791. "Textile Nerite".  As Dave said, the picture doesn't want to open, but I was able to open it using Microsoft Picture Manager.  Had the same problem with a couple of your other pictures.
Hi Paul and many thanks for your prompt help, also in solving the small problem of opening the file.
Many thanks again, cordially,
Giovanni
