Confirm Hell's Conch (Strombus Helli) - AvidCollector - 04-28-2014
I found this in Oahu, Hawaii in 2012. I was so excited because they're supposed to be uncommon, and mostly in deep waters. I found it in a tide pool almost on the beach!

Yes, this certainly does appear to be Strombus (Canarium) helli, full adult size.
