Please identify these two "arabica"
Hello !

The second one is a <i>Cypraea arabica </i>for me. The base is typically flat and colored.

The first one is difficult to say as it is subadult. it looks more like an <i>arabica</i> for me, but I am not sure !

Remember that arabica cowrie can be easily distinguished from <i>histrio</i> and <i>eglantina</i> by its base. <i>arabica</i> has always a flat base.

regards,
