> Well, I think I may have a handle on the Pteria that I've been trying to i.d.,

> longisquamosa - mine is only an inch and doesn't have "spines" as long as the
> picture iin the Compendium.   However, it is quite fragile, so it may be a
> young specimen.   MY QUESTION IS:  can this shell be a bright spring green?
> Mine is.
