Re: Trochidae or not ?
The shells in the first set are all Herpetopoma species, which were formally placed in Trochidae, but are now I believe in Chilodontidae.  I believe the first 4 pictures are all H. instrictum, and the last two are H. exasperatum.

I believe the shell in the second set is Hybochelus cancellatus, which is also in Chilodontidae.
