Dear Conchlers,

Yes, the shell on Sims page is definitely a trochid, probably in the genus
Astele, but it is definitely not Astele bularra. I was going to put an
image of that species on the Australian Shells Homepage to prove the point,
but I do not have a slide of this species, so it will have to wait and you
will have to believe me. Astele bularra has a ridge at the sutures. Also, I
do not know of any records outside Australia.

By the way, Ross, I will volunteer for identifying marine shells from the
Australian region.

regards

Patty
