Seashells of the world
This fascination and passion for shells also took me to travel, to discover the pleasure of personally catch some of these wonderful species of sea shells (Philippines, 2007 / India, 2009 / Thailand, 2011 / India 2016 / Japan, 2017 / Malaysia and Singapore, 2019). In these places, I plunged into the warm waters of th e Pacific and Indian, among the corals, or in the tangle of the roots of the Mangues, where I caught numerous specimens of shells. These shells, which are still part of my collection today.
Whenever possible I will add more and better photos, as well as other families of species shells to the gallery. Suggestions and corrections will always be welcome...
Note: I also leave the message to future collectors and those who have long been engaged in malacology, who are awareness of the preservation of the species and their natural habitat, not collecting more specimens of the various species, than those that are necessary to have a pleasantly beautiful collection of pedagogical interest.
