To any with interests in the cowries,...

While 'touching base' with earlier postings of information on the Cypraea, I
happened upon a work of Art Weil's concerning the cowry names and their
authors. (Yes, Art, it is still on-line!)

Some eight years ago, next month, a HTML version of Art Weil's Authors in
Cypraea was posted on Yahoo's GEOCITIES web space. Maybe it is obsolete, in
addition to being obscure.

There are other tidbits, also:
