Need help with Cypraea identifications
Dave was going to ID these but it sounds like there is some problem sending the images?  Anyway I thought I'd take a look at the slide show.  I didn't have time the other day when it was first posted.  Here's what I came up with.  The images are not numbered, but I will number them to help keep track of things:

1  aurantium
2  testudinaria  
3  uncertain - looks immature - perhaps perlae??
4  hesitata  
5  cervus
6  not certain, looks like cervus or zebra but not sure what is wrong with it
7  tigris
8  not a Cypraea - Cypraecassis rufa, in family Cassidae
9  stercoraria
10  tigris
11  tigris
12  Ovula ovum, family Ovulidae
13  marginata
14  lamarckii
15  annettae
16  friendii
17  nivosa
18  mappa
19  tigris
20  hesitata
21  vitellus
22  depressa
23  tigris
24  tigris
25  arabica
26  venusta episema
27  histrio
28  tigris
29  tigris
30  tigris
31  mauritiana
32  probably thersites, not certain
33  friendii vercoi
34  argus
35 guttata
33  talpa
37  eglantina
38  talpa
39  talpa
40  looks like Ovula ovum, but not typical - uncertain
41  eburnea
42  lurida
43  Left - eburnea; section 2, top (in bag) uncertain, bottom - pulchra; Center section, top - decipiens, bottom adusta; section 4 - mus; Right top - ventriculus; bottom -turdus
44  Top L to R: onyx, teulerei, succincta, caputserpentis (with eroded dorsum);  Bottom L to R: first one uncertain, perhaps a light colored teulerei?, then 2 caurica
45  Top L to R: moneta, caputserpentis, errones, spurca, annulus, and the last one I believe is an unusual cribraria missing its dorsal spots;  Center L to R: hirundo, kieneri, pyrum, and 2 uncertains (the last one may be pyriformis);  Bottom, L to R: first one uncertain (hidden), then bistrinotata, ovum(?), walkeri, hungerfordi, and uncertain
46  Top L to R: grayana(?), chinensis, caurica; Bottom L to R: miliaris, caurica, vitellus
47  Top L to R: robertsi, spurca(?), helvola; Bottom L to R: carneola, nucleus, isabella
48  Same as 47
49  two large ones - eglantina; front - moneta; rear - erosa
50  Top L to R: diluculum, spadicea; Bottom L to R: pyrum, spadicea
51  2 lynx
52  Top L to R: lutea, subviridis, uncertain;  Bottom L to R: cribraria, asellus, obvelata
53  Left: lynx;  R Rear: Calpurnus verrucosus (family Ovulidae); R Front: limacina
54  Top L to R: caputserpentis, bistrinotata;  Bottom L to R: margarita (probably), angustata
55  Rear - caputserpentis; front - 2 ocellata
56  Rear:  saulae, saulae, staphylaea;  Front: ziczac
57  square box - caputserpentis; round box rear: moneta, front: uncertain (partially hidden); right side of image: teres

WHEW!
