I found this on a divers' forum & nobody can identify it. A gastropod. Can't send pictures. Several spotted by divers in Roatan, Honduras & Cozumel, Mex. Descrïption: 12" or more (this is puzzling, but verified by more than 1 diver). Color: Seems dark blue/black, but may be different due to depth where sighted. A large snail. From above it looks a bit like a nerite or moon snail. The spire is like a True Tulip. The animal is large, seemingly black with white or light blue streaks. No synphon, so it's not a Tulip. Looks a bit like a Partridge Tun. But the size?????? Thanks in advance.
