Anyone know what kind of snail this is? Collected from the gulf coast of Florida.

Thanks!

Prunum guttatum (White-Spot Marginella)?

Hi Bill,

It's a Prunum for sure. It looks too fat for the typical P. guttatum, though. It may be Prunum apicinum instead.

Cheers,



Don

Ah! Indeed.

Commonly found in the sandy and grassy, lagoonal areas of Florida.
