Photo of some of my shell collection

Many are in drawers below the cabinet. These are some of the most prized shells I have:

Nice!

Hi!

It's a lovely collection! Truly impressive!
I don't suppose you happen to have a name for the small cream coloured bivalve in picture 5 with the brown lines. I have half of one and I can't put a name to it.

Again, absolutely lovely!

Best wishes,

Emma.

Emma, I think it is Lioconcha castrensis in the family Veneridae. There are a few in the genus that are very similar.
