Does anyone know exactly what the perculum of Drupa iodostoma looks like?
I just received a Marquesan specimen l=33mm with a red-brown
(slightly boomerang-shaped) 15mm operc, which is obviously muricid.
But another operc fell out of the shell; this one is tiny and
malformed sliver 1.5x5mm.
The larger operc may fit if pushed down within the labral denticles.
