Dear Connoisseurs of small, obscure, dead shells,

I found among my haul from Gulf of Thailand beaches a Lamellaria. It's about
6mm wide.

The only species name I could come up with in that locality is L. indica
Leach. Are there other species anyone knows about possible from Thailand?

I had first thought this must be an opistobranch. When I saw it was
Lamellaria, I noticed that there have been some taxonomic revisions. They
were once thought to be more closely related to Trivias, but now closer to
Naticas. Anyone want to comment?
