Unknown Mediterranean snail - Emma - 08-22-2011 Hello again!! Do you have any idea what this snail is and its family? It was collected at Les cases d'Alcanar beach, near Sant Carles de la Ràpita, Tarragona, Spain, on a pebble beach after a storm. It is 17.5 mm. Thanks!! Emma. Re: Unknown Mediterranean snail - wolfi - 08-23-2011 Hi, Emma! Should be family Buccinidae; might be Cantharus dorbignyi (Payraudeau, 1826) = Pollia dorbignyi or near to this species. Kind regards  : wolf Re: Unknown Mediterranean snail - Emma - 08-23-2011 Dear Wolf, I think you are right!!! Thank you so much for helping me!! Best wishes, Emma.
