I vaugely remember somthing about there being a number of Putuchian sinistral
fossil cyps from the various pits around Florida.
So the first thing you will probably need for ID is the pit info,
and then the lit...

----------------------------------

I was contacted by someone who found a sinistral fossil cowry in Florida.
No more information than that, at present.

As I recall, rather dimly, there were two or three species of cowry from days of
old which coiled backward. Could one of our fossil cognoscenti further
illuminate the situation of such shells so that I could pass it on to this
person?

Thanks and Aloha,
Bob Dayle
