Hi Julia:
Welcome aboard. You will enjoy the conversations on here. Don't worry
you don't need to know the latin names - however a lot of people use
them on here.
But they will help you if you ask. Do you belong to a shell club?
We are on Merritt Island. We often fly from Ft. Lauderdale to the
Bahamas to collect. We have collected for 35 years. Have approx
7-8,000 species.
Have fun.
