Specimens A, especially the second one, probably belongs to the still
bad defined species "Scaphella atlantis" Clench, 1946.Especially if it
has three strong well sculptured columellar plaits.
Shells B are specimens of an undescribed good valid species, close to
scaphella gouldiana but always dwarf,whitish with 4-5 straight
columellar plaits.
The limits of speciation in genus Scaphella is still a debatable
problem. Hi,  Pat
