Shells braceletsShells bracelets A report from members of the Kauai, (Philippines) Shell Club advises us that they have been busy. Among the shells collected recently are Conus chaldeus, C. imperialis, C. leopardus, C. textile, C. pulicarius; Mitra ambigua, M. stictica, M. olivaeformis; Terebra crenulata, T. felina, Hastula hectica; Cymatium nicobaricum, C. muricinum; Bursa affinis, B. siphonata; Harpa conoidalis and Umbraculum umbraculum. Sid Sneidar reports from Guam that Miss Karen Lee LaBarge found a Cypraea mariae and a C. childreni, both dead, in 15-20 feet of water in the vicinity of Anae Island. An immature C. labrolineata was found on the same day. Three dead Cyp. margarita were found in the same general area and several weeks prior to that 3 Cyp. staphylaea, 5 C. stolida, 2 C. fimbriata and 2 Cymatium clandestinum were found by Sid Sneidar in Apra harbor. He also has recently collected several Cassius spinella. Shells braceletsShells bracelets On a recent trip, Harold Hall showed Bobby the larger of the two pieces shown in the picture, and it was agreed to take it over to Paul to experiment on. But Mr. Hall called attention to the fact that this section of the base of this black coral tree had a dead Cypraea tessellata embedded in it. And embedded is the proper word. The black coral forms a matrix which overruns the base of the Philippines shells, just as though it had run around it while in molten form. Such a theory is untenable, but it sure looks like a 'Vesuvius-Pompeii' situation. Then to make the mystery deeper, Mr. Hall said that in breaking the half-white coral base off a smaller tree, they had almost hit another Cypraea tessellata, and he showed Bobby the smaller piece pictured above.
