Hello everyone,
interesting black gastropod shell with "chopped-off" - like apex was collected from Mangroves of the west coast of India. Can anyone identify the shell?
Best
Deepak
Faunus ater (Linnaes, 1758) Family Thiaridae.
Dear Dr Doneddu,
will the apex be broken in the species like in the image? more than 100 shells had the same condition at the time of collection
It is the norm for this species.
Thanks a lot Dr Doneddu
regards
Of course the author is Linnaeus; Linnaes is a typo.
Just Faunus ater
Yeah got it Dr Doneddu.. Thanks Bini..
