Description

These are also known as turban shells, because we are told they are the shape of turbans, and because the Latin genus is “turbo” which in Latin means “spinning top”! There you have it, it’s complicated is this shell naming process and always a good excuse for occasionally sending out the wrong items. Found in shallow and deep waters pretty much the world over but most common between the Polar and tropical regions. Green’s a very popular colour this year, it will be next year too!
