Hi Steve,
Due to relocating of populations over the last 60 + years, many of the forms
are now intergrades.
This was something that Archie Jones illustrated to me while collecting in
certain hammocks.

Subject: [CONCH-L] more on liguus re "form" integrity
one interesting dead Liguus i picked up in the Florida Redlands makes me
wonder about the robustness of the named forms....this guy started out as
castaneozonatus, and then has a break/mend on the body whorl about half an
inch from the growing edge of the lip, and from the mend to the lip, the
shell has no more black bands, just thin pencil lines of color, not unlike
other named forms, but nothing like castaneozonatus. is that unusual?
