While looking for minis at the Lighthouse Beach on Sanibel this past week, I ran across a shell I never noticed before. This little guy is a BEAU'S VITRINELLA and it's only 3/8 of an inch big. It was near the area I was finding WENTLETRAPS, TUSKS, and BABY'S EARS so I was very focused on the small shells. It's a pretty little shell so I will definitely be on the lookout for more of them now that I know the shape, pattern and can call it something other than "cutie little guy that looks like a flattened tiny white button shell". This is what it looked like on the beach when I found the VITRINELLA. I also found this shell that measures about an inch at the lighthouse beach. I thought it could be faded PERIWINKLE but just to be sure it wasn't a tree snail or something, I asked my land snail friend H.L. Lori if she knew what it was. Without seeing the shell in person, she thought it looked about right to be a PERIWINKLE. Thanks, HL! This is another view after I brought it …
