| Are these turrids? 
					I'd like to know if these are turrids, the smaller one possibly being turricula coreanica or gemmula cosmoi, the larger one unknown.  Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks!   <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/wateryworld/6975689442/in/photostream">http://www.flickr.com/photos/wateryworl ... hotostream</a><!-- m --> <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/wateryworld/7121770195/in/photostream">http://www.flickr.com/photos/wateryworl ... hotostream</a><!-- m -->

					Yes they are turrids.  The larger one looks like Gemmula deshayesi.  I'd say Turricula coreanica is a pretty good guess on the smaller (and immature) shell, but I'm not sure.  It definitely is not G. cosmoi.

					Okay, a question about the coreanica - looking it up a bit, it appears that this shell was recently promoted from being a subspecies of turrid to its own family, Clavatulidae, and renamed "Makiyamaia coreanica".  Thoughts on this change?
