#2967 - Arakawania marginalba - Mulberry Whelk
Originally Purpura marginalba in 1832, but also Morula and Tenguella marginalba.
Most common on the rocky shorelines of eastern Australia, where it preys on other molluscs living and dead, but also found elsewhere around the Pacific and Indian Oceans.
Botany Bay near Bare Island, Sydney, NSW
Siratus beauii - 135 mm, Guadeloupe
Belcher’s Chorus Shell (Forreria Belcheri, Hinds 1843)
With Operculum and Barnacles
This is a genus of marine gastropod mollusks in the family Muricidae and is indigenous to the Pacific Coast of California. These specimens have an interesting history. When Pier 174 burned in Los Angeles Harbor in December of 1967, these shells attached to the wooden pilings. On a silt bottom, they fed on mussels. They were collected with SCUBA at 35′ in 1991. It normally lives in shallow protected water and it is not a common shell. Like other rock shells, it is carnivorous, using its file-like radula (from the Latin meaning “scraper”) to drill through shells of other kinds of mollusks.
