Does anyone specialize in Architectonicidae? I'm curious about the
identity of this 3mm sundial I found among coral rubble while diving in
Micronesia. You may be able to view it at

(Let's Talk Seashells forum)
I don't have a lot of names for small sundials to search for.
Pseudotorinia gemmulata is one name that came up in Swennen, et al's
Mollusks of the southern Gulf of Thailand. However, on the Conchology,
Inc site P. gemmulata is "very, very rare".
