    • Hi, @don-megahan, How did you take your images? Is it possible the classification is slightly different. I’ve found some literature that suggests Gastropoda>Littorinimorpha>Tornidae>Solariorbis https://neogeneatlas.net/genera/Solariorbis/

      You have a lot of really high quality information in your specimens but most are missing scale bars to help validate the size of these specimens. The idea is that the images are acting as the ‘specimen’ as the physical object would in a museum cabinet. We are working to note excellent specimens so the data can be migrated to data aggregators (such as iDigBio). If this is something you are interested in contributing please reach out if I can help you in any way!

      Do you have any good references for someone working to ID Texas invertebrates? I know of a few echinoderm resources but not so much on the mollusks. Always looking to expand my horizons! Thanks, Jen
