ID of shells found on east coast of UAE / Oman
Hi Em, you have given me a lot to identify and a lot of problems as some are just too worn to name, but here goes.
#14 Cypraea carneola juvenile #15 Chicoreus virgineus #16 Polynices sp. Poss. tumidus #17 Fusinus sp. Poss. arabicus #18 Murex forskoehlii #19 ? Gibbula sp. Too worn to i.d. #20 Cypraea grayana #21 Turbo coronatus #22 Nassarius distortus #23 Cypraea erosa #24 Semicassis sp. Poss bisulcata? Too worn to i.d. #25 Pinctada sp. too worn again. This is one of the true pearl oysters. #26 Natica sp. poss. vitellus too worn. #27 Cypraea grayana #28 No idea #29 Nassarius sp. poss. distorta but far too worn to i.d. #30 Poss. Gyrineum sp., again too worn. #31 Cypraea grayana #32 Cypraea turdus #33 Cypraea erosa (very worn) #34 Conus sp. poss. dictator #35 Duplicaria duplicata I have done my level best but as I said, some are far too worn to identify. If anyone else fancies helping feel free to chip in! Dave |
