rare shell on dorset beach
i am an amateur but i recently collected some shells on a beach in dorset, england. most were the usual types of shell you would find - queen scallops, cockles, razor shells, an otter shell - but then i came across something very strange: vexillum plicarium. (i matched the shell with an image and descrïption in philip's guide to seashells and cross referenced it with images from the web.)

is it possible that a shell found mostly in the south-west pacific and east indian ocean could turn up on a dorset beach?
