Epitonium sp - alwynmarais - 04-09-2007

Hi All

The attached Epitonium was collected from 400m off Durban, Natal, South Africa. What is interesting is that the wings are only on the top part of the body whorl and disappear near the next suture. Unfortunately this is the best i can do with my scanner as the shell is about 2mm in size. Any comments will be appreciated.
