Hi Ross,
just took a look at your Conch-L ID assistance page and noted that so far
nobody volunteered for help on the family NATICIDAE.
You may put me down for that family, and I'll do my best to answer taxonomic
questions, as far as the workload of my daytime job permits.
That said, I doubt there will be much demand for info on the Naticidae as
unfortunately few people, apart from me and literally a handful others
worldwide that I know of, appear to have a more than casual interest in that
large, beautiful shell family.

Michael Hollmann


N.B.:
I am always interested in uncommon or otherwise unusual Naticidae; so you
dealers/collectors out there, don't hesitate to contact me should you have
anything to offer in that regard.
