Shell Identification
Hi there. I think the problem is in the spelling, for example the three names you give are spelt wrong.
The first should be Lambis arthritica ( the second name should always start with a lower case letter, the first name with a capital). This is in fact Lambis chiragra arthritica #2 would be Strombus sinuatus and the source (locality) would be Cebu, an Island in the Philippines. #3 Is Lambis scorpio the locality of Albay Gulf I do not know. Try searching these names. Another problem is names do get changed so sometimes you get an old name which will be different but a lot of good shell books give these 'old' names as well. If in doubt ask us here <img src="images/smiley/smile.gif" alt="" border="0" /> I hope this is some help. Dave. |
