Minature Mussel?
I found this tiny shell in Tampa on Florida's Gulf Coast.  It looks to me like a very small Mussel, possibly <i>Geukensia granosissima</i>.  However, I'm not sure due to its small size (13mm) and well defined alternating white and reddish/brown bands.

Thanks in advance for the help!
