Help with freshwater gastropod ID


Recommended Posts

This is probably a long shot, but I was hoping someone could identify the gastropod in the attached image, at least to family.  Embedded in silicified Miocene-age limestone (chert, Tampa Member, Arcadia Formation) from eastern Hillsborough County, Florida.  Commonly found associated with charophytes, a freshwater algae.   Thanks!

Good point.  I cropped out the scale so I could show a bigger image.

Anyway, its 11 mm long.

May be difficult to ID, with it being a cross section.  :unsure:

Yes, I was afraid of that.  But thought I would take a chance.
