I agree fully with Ross on microshells, they are beautiful and very interesting because there are a lot of species still not discovered.
Manzonia and Folinia are both Rissoidae. Manzonia is a genus of the subfamily Rissoinae with only a species (probably) in the Mediterranea (Manzonia crassa Kanmaker, 1798 type-species) but about 20 species in the Canary Isl. Folinia is a genus of subfamily Rissoininae (type-species Rissoina signae Bartsch, 1915 from Panama) with a distribution restricted to Central West America and Caribbean. For more information see Ponder (1985), A rewiew of the Genera of the Rissoidae. Records of the Australian Museum, suppl. 4.
