Thanks to everyone who responded to my query about the Lanistes ID.  They
appear to be L. ovum purpureus (Jonas, 1839).  Look for them in one of the
Silent Auctions.

As for the Barycypraea caputviperae (Martin, 1899), this is difficult to
price, so I am tentatively placing it in the Verbal Auction.

Many thanks again.  See you at the convention!
