John, where was this collected? Â I couldn't get to the image at first, until I realized your URL ends with .jpy instead of .jpg

I collected similar specimens (light and dark variations) in Bali. The ones in your picture look like a dark variation of Asperitas rareguttata. It is featured at <a href="http://www.conchology.be/en/availableshells/shellsforsaledetails.php?uniquenumber=125590#f" target="_blank"><!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.conchology.be/en/availableshells/shellsforsaledetails.php?uniquenumber=125590#f">http://www.conchology.be/en/availablesh ... r=125590#f</a><!-- m --></a>
It is relatively common throughout the island.
