Collecting data would sure be helpful.

See: <a href="http://z14.invisionfree.com/Conchologist_Forum/index.php?showtopic=1780" target="_blank"><!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://z14.invisionfree.com/Conchologist_Forum/index.php?showtopic=1780">http://z14.invisionfree.com/Conchologis ... topic=1780</a><!-- m --></a>

And:  http://z14.invisionfree.com/Conchologist...topic=1777

I have no idea why the second link is not workin.

Thank you for the help. I wish I knew where they came from. Probably SE US, Florida area. The person I inherited these from also spent some time in Wales, but I don't know for sure.
Thanks <img src="images/smiley/clap.gif" alt="" border="0" />

None of these are the British species, I think they are all from Florida.
