Dear Emilio,
 
I have most of the shells that you are looking for, mostly large gems.
Donax is my favorite genus and I would love to add to my collection of color
variations.  I must insist that you offer several specimens of the Donax for
each specimen that I have to offer, as in every instance mine is much bigger
than yours.

Dear Emilio,
 
sorry of these shells I can't offer any. But for the museum I would
be able to send you a couple of inlandshells from Europe.
Maybe some Mediterranean seashells, too. but later, also
including microspecies.
 
with best shellings regards
 
yours Helmut
