Thanks to all who pointed a newbie to many sources of information. I am now
on my way to identification of my collection, or most of it. I have a couple
of shells I haven't found on any dealer lists and would appreciate any
further help anyone could offer. One shell has the following description:
Argonauta hians Solander, trawled by commercial fishing boat at 60 fathoms,
silt bottom off Chipei Tao, Pescadores Is., Straits of Taiwan, March 1971. I
don't have a millimeter measurement conversion at the moment, but there are
five of them and they're 2 inches long. They are paper-thin but in great
shape.
My question is : What is the taxonomy of this one so I can do a more
efficient search?
Also, to the one who replied with the greeting, "Dear Dr. Gulley," I am
flattered, but have not attained that degree!
Thanks again,
Sue Gulley
