Strombus help - conchylinet - 02-17-2012 Hi, I cannot find the species of the Strombus below. They are about 5 cm long and come from Indonesia. Thank you, Pierre. A B Re: Strombus help - wolfi - 02-17-2012 Hi Pierre, A could be Strombus aurisdianae L., 1758. B might be Strombus bulla (RÖDING, 1798), but I'm not sure. Kind regards: wolf Re: Strombus help - Emma - 02-17-2012 Number 2 looks like Euprotomus bulla to me, I have one from the Philippines. And, for number 1 I'd say Euprotomus aurisdianae. You used to find them in souvenir baskets of shells. Hope it helps! Best wishes, Emma.
