Hi Steve,
Your package arrived safely yesterday. I took a quick look at its
contents last night (about 18 sandwich baggies and a few other
miscellaneous bags) but will get a closer look this weekend. Who was
the collector of the Key Biscayne material? Your self-collected
specimens from Kice Island had 2 species: Pyrgospira ostrearum and
Crassispira sanibelensis (aka Zonulispira crocata), the latter being a
nice find. There is also a bag with the label "separated from the group
1 specimens". Do you know where these and the Polystira albida (large
white shell) are from?
More later,
Phil
