Gold Ring Cowries

Cyprea annulus

Cowries are easily distinguished from all other snails. Their shell is basically ovoid, with the aperture on the bottom. This aperture is a slender opening, and lined on both sides by calcareous bumps or nodules. The shells are highly polished and often brightly colored, but the mantle that comes out and covers the shell when the animal is moving is often even more brightly colored. Mainly herbivorous, these interesting critters.
