Dear L'rs:
Since the list recently has more musings than serious questions, this
has led me to ask something I have wondered about.  It seems the
Caribbean is well traversed for shell collecting, and I know of folks
who have been to almost every spot with a name in the Bahamas, Turks and
Caicos, Dominican Rep., Windward and Leewards, etc.  It seems, however,
that few go to Puerto Rico for shelling.  Since that island has a
decent, if limited, land fauna, I was thinking of planning a trip there
someday. But what about marine collecting there?  Why do so few go there
for shells?  Any locations for either land or marine shell there?
Thanks in advance.
