Good morning, I was wondering if anyone knows of an identification book which indexes according to zone. I know that the zone for each shell can be found, but thought this might be a handy "tool" for someone visiting a particular zone. As I mentioned the other day, we are going to drive the length of Baja. I believe that area is "Panamic". Does this term include both the east coast and the west coasts of Baja? Is there a book about Panamic shells? Is there a book about the shells of Baja? Also, as a shell lover but not a scientific student of shells I enjoy reading the Conch-L entries. I was wondering, however, if any of you are aware of a list that might be geared to the "less informed" collector. I would enjoy reading about what people find and where they find them. I really enjoyed the "Simon" entries. I could almost feel that I was there. Considering where I live, that was a real treat. Thanks again for your help.
