Just a note: It would be nice if the considerate, informed members of
conch-l could just put the common names of the species they are
referring to in parenthesis next to the latin reference for those less
informed or those unable to look up every reference. What a great
learning tool it might be for amatures. I'm excited just thinking about
it! Michael, "The Other Summer Snailer" of Michael and Marcie Huggins,
