Gastropod Identification Help Needed - Florida Fossil


Gregory Kruse

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

 

I found these gastropods along the Sanibel Causeway in Ft. Myers, FL.  They were in a pile of shells being used for landscaping so I presume that the sediments came from a nearby quarry of ?Pleistocene age, possibly the Caloosahatchee Fm.  Can someone help me verify and identify this fossil?  Family Muricidae?  Thank you!
