shells to identify
Hi. Neither are Conidae, the left looks to be a juvenile Cowry and the right a juvenile Volute. Unfortunately the species is almost impossible to determine from such juvenile shells but if I were to hazard a guess I would say the Cowry was mauritiana and the Volute damoni, the Volute could even be a juvenile Olividae. Sizes and locality may help a little.
