Dear Olivers (to all who occupy with Olividae)
Would you like to transfer some small Cypraeas into a new family:
Cypraeellidae
Olivella always has been in the family of Olividae and I keep this
in future too. Maybe somebody creates new families like:
Ancillidae, Amaldidae, Eburniidae eg.
The Cypraea (Sub) Genus Zoila is eating a very different food from Cypraeas. This also could be a reason to create a new family:
Zoilidae or. There is a lot to do and some people are overworked
to find new families or genera, eg.
