In the corrections given to me to "Cowries of the World" by Burgess,
there were none for P. lentiginosa.   Looking at the photos on page 128,
there is definitely something wrong.  The shell in the "animal" photo is
not definitely P. lentiginosa.  The animal description is identical to
those in the earlier "The Living Cowries".  The animal photo had to have
been added to the book later in its production without changing the
text.  It may be the wrong photo.  There were several of the late
changes that included errors.
