Wow !!!
I've seen images from live Epitoniums, but these are great ! Bill , thanks
for sharing them with us .
These images reminds me of the booklet from 1979 , Seashells of western
Europe , from Mr Bouchet,Danrigal and Huygens , It has some great pictures
of living seashells .Alas no (living )Epitonium pictures were in this book
,but this booklet is a must for every European sp. collector to get more
information on habitat etc.
Thanks again !!!!
