Columbella mercatoria?
Hello,

I´m not sure, is this Columbella mercatoria?

This damaged shell I have also found on the beach, Runneway Bay, of Jamaica.

The size about 12 mm.

Best reggards!

This is definitely not a Columbella. It's pretty badly worn but I believe it is Engina turbinella, family Buccinidae.

Hi Paul,

Yes, Engina Turbinella might be true!

Thankyou!!
