{machel spence} aka..."mushroom queen"
Thank you Andy & Emily for thinking of me while on your trip to Florida, I love my seashells that you found on the beach...hope you like this photograph!
This species grows to be 1 3/4 inches across, and has a rounded, triangular shell with both strong concentric ridges and strong radial ribbing, which together form a raised crisscross pattern of ridges, hence the specific name, cancellata or cancellate. The species commonly lives on sandy bottoms of sounds and shallow offshore waters, and the shells are commonly found washed ashore on sound and ocean beaches.
