Some texts say this shell is found off the Carolinas and I have seen some for sale from North Carolina and it is found off the east coast of Florida. For some reason this shell seems to be scarce off the east coast of the U.S. and I have not heard any specimens found by scuba diving anywhere off this coast north of the Florida Keys. I bet someone on this forum has heard or seen otherwise. I did hear about a Scaphella which was found off Palm Beach in 60 feet of water but it was lost during the dive. I was told it wasn't a junonia. It was probably a Scaphella georgiana which somehow came up from a wall leading to much deeper water. Andrew
