EPITONIUM (Wentletraps)
Another very unusual Family with an amazing shell sculpture. Specimens from this Family tend to be quite expensive because most species are uncommon to rare tending to live in deep water. There are approximately 320 members to this Family. I, in fact, did not realise how big this Family is.
