Re: Trochidae
I would say Trochus radiatus from the Red Sea area.

Re: Trochidae
If you are looking on Eddie Hardy's website the top two are radiatus, the bottom one is different, maybe hanleyanus. I don't know infuscatus at all. I will investigate.

Re: Trochidae
All I can find is Cantharidus infuscatus.

Which is a Japanese shell that looks nothing like the photos on Eddie's site.

Looks like Trochus radiatus to me too. I found some at the Mannar-gulf  S.E. India
