#9 is indeed <i>P. albocincta</i>.  See photos and analysis at

#6 really poor photo, but may be <i>Olivella pusilla</i>.

#1 is not <i>Costoanachis sparsa </i> unless a very unusual form.  See photos at:

It may be <i>C. scutulata</i>.  See photos at:

#3 looks like <i>Atyris lunata </i>.  Se photos at:

<a href="http://z14.invisionfree.com/Conchologist_Forum/index.php?showtopic=445" target="_blank"><!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://z14.invisionfree.com/Conchologist_Forum/index.php?showtopic=445">http://z14.invisionfree.com/Conchologis ... wtopic=445</a><!-- m --></a>

#4  Not so sure this is <i>Mitrella dichroa</i>.  Looks more like a <i>Costoanachis </i>to me.

Good luck,
