Shells from New caledonia
Hello Sylvain,

Welcome!

These appear to be Cypraea clandestina (Clandestine Cowrie) on the left in the upper photo, and also in the lower photo; and Cypraea errones (Wandering Cowrie) on the right in the upper photo. Both very common Cypraea species. Hopefully you do know that some cone species are dangerous, even potentially deadly?  So you will take appropriate precautions in collecting live specimens!  <span class="petit">--Last edited by Paul Monfils on 2008-04-21 07:03:52 --</span>
