Re: young conch
I agree with Dave. I think it is a very juvenile Lambis scorpio indomaris Abbott. During my collecting-trips to the Seychelles in 1983 and 1985 I have seen Lambis in all stages; very juvenile to adult from species like: crocata, scorpio indomaris and truncata. Needless to say that they were left alone when still living (or occupied by a hermitcrab).
At some beaches juvenile Strombs (and Lambis) were fairly common in beachdrift. Problem with Lambis is that there is quite some difference between the juvenile and adult stages. |
