Maurizio:
You might want to go look at the list of shells from Peanut Island compiled
by the Jacksonville Shell Club (great WEB site with lots of very useful
information) at their WEB site where Harry Lee is currently keeping the
faunal lists up to date. Also listed is Oliva bifasciata bollingi Clench,
1934 (O. reticularis to most of us and O. fulgurator to Tursch et al). It
is interesting that both occur there. Anyone know if both have been
collected live at Peanut Island?
