Hi, Everyone!

We are all aware of the single tooth at the anterior of
the aperture of Opeatostoma pseudodon.  BUT, I just
uncovered a shell in the club collection that had an
Acanthina angelica label in it.  And it bears the general
shape of an Acanthina, but there is a false tooth just
like that of Opeatostoma.  Are there any other species in
the genus Opeatostoma?  This is obviously NOT that
species, as it is a mottled brown, nodulose shell.

What gives?  This was a real surprise to me.

Thanks,
Linda
