Of course I have got the shell from a fisherman, near Memba. There is a
possibility that somebody from abroad have given the shell in exchange or
something...But from Australia?The locality of Memba is very remote. Of
course South Africans go easily to Australia. Everything is possible. Are
you sure it is Amoria molleri?
I need may be a Month or two to go there again and check something about
this matter. I have to to go with my four by four, about 400 Km very bad
sort of road and spend 5 hours to go and 5 hours to come back. And not
during the night time...it is very dangerous.
Best regards to all
