Re: New to shelling, need IDs please
Hi!  Welcome aboard!

12.  Pitar lupanaria, family Veneridae, West Central America

11. Cepaea nemoralis, widespread in Europe and the United States

10.  Viviparus malleatus (fresh water)  Originally from Asia, but now widespread in the United States

09.  Cancellaria oblonga, western Indo-Pacific region

08.  It's a land snail, may be an immature Achatina fulica which now exists practically worldwide in tropical and subtropical regions.  It grows to over 5 inches in length.

07.  Yes, Marginellidae - Marginella (Prunum) prunum, Caribbean

06.  There are a lot of these small Trochidae species, some of which are quite similar, but this looks like Tegula viridula from the Caribbean

05.  Yes, Cypraea caputserpentis, western Indo-Pacific

04.  Yes, Turris indica, western Indo-Pacific

03.  Yes, immature Strombus.  I believe it is Strombus alatus, not the rather similar Strombus pugilis.

02.  Yes, Olividae - Olivancillaria gibbosa, Indian Ocean

01.  Nassarius dorsatus, western Indo-Pacific
