astron Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 (edited) Xenophora crispa, Pleistocene, Puglia, Italy Nice your Italian bunch, Henry Especially, I am impressed with this so strange species ''Xenophora'' means in Greek ''foreign (things) bearing''. And actually these odd snails collect several shells, corals, stones etc and attach them to their shells for camouflage. If completed it's a collection of shells itself. Unfortunately the attacments to your specimen are gone with the so many traces left on the shell. Otherwise, it would be like this Edited April 18, 2012 by astron Astrinos P.

I have a recent one with more than 5 different species shells on it ! Coco Hi Coco. It's about a recent specimen I have found into internet and unfortunately not in my fossil hunting area I have a lot of fossil shells but nothing like this. Simply, I am impressed from these weird creatures and I do believe that Henry will not be bothered if you can show your beauty here Astrinos P.

Coco Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I don't wish to disrupt Henry's subject about his beautiful fossil collection, but I put small photos of my recent Xenophora with its small shells stuck on it. The 3rd one shows the bottom of the shell.
