[syn. Cypraea mappa]Map cowryCypraeidaeUndersidewww.flickr.com/photos/dweickhoff/6477942231/in/datetaken-...NOTE: I have not collected live shells since the mid-1970's. I believe that the animal itself is much more valuable alive than destroyed for its shell. It is for this reason that I will now only collect beach/forest shells from deceased specimens.
