  • I believe that you may have a Leptothyra verruca (Gould, 1845). See my Ni'ihau jewellery page at

  • The specimens can't be a Trochid, but a Arene. >Because this shell without the shape aperture, but with a thickended round >and smooth aperture, the second, it's come from Caribbean, not the Pacific,
    the third, it's size range almost 5.5 mm to 7 mm....Deane
