shells from oahu north shore
What are these?  I think the lower one is part of the Cypraeidae family (glossy, brown/beige/tan), but the top one doesn't fit any of the families listed on the family ID site.

Do these have common names?
North Shore Oahu is certainly not a seashell heaven, but these are very different from what I regularly found on the East Coast of the US.
Sorry for the pictures; will try to do better next time.  I think it needs a flash.    
Thanks for your help!!
