@patrick-hsieh this seems like another situation where the genus has been recently synonymized so that the correct classification is Nassariidae-Hima-Hima mendica (https://paleobiodb.org/classic/checkTaxonInfo?taxon_no=407235&is_real_user=1).
@smoran Classification updated. I guess we can thank our friend Austin for reorganizing that one.
Thanks! And indeed! He’s got his fingers in a lot of Neogene molluscan research, especially on the West Coast since he moved out to the LA County Museum a few years ago. He’s definitely a good person to reach out to if you have some specimens that are giving you ID trouble.
