Hello All,
I'll add my two cents.  Common names are "no good."  In Europe an Illyanassa
is a mud snail and in the US it is called a Periwinkle.  I read that somewere
and it would take a while for me to find the book that had the info. about
that subject.  Also on p. 33 of A. Guide to field Identification; Seashells
of North Amica, by Abbott/Sandstrom, copyright '68, talks about introduced
species.
