RE: HELP IDENTIFYING
Ok, these are less challenging than the previous group.

Picture 1 & 2 - The ones with the pink interior are Hexaplex erythrostomus.  The larger, darker colored ones are Muricanthus nigritus.  Both in the family Muricidae.

Picture 3 - Terebra robusta. family Terebridae.

Picture 4 - See next post.

Picture 5 - The glossy ones are Cypraea spadicea, the Chestnut Cowrie, from southern California or outer Baha.  There is also a Fusinus in the box, and a few smaller shells I cannot see clearly.
