One of the "shell trees" on Wild Beach at Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge / Assateague Island National Seashore (NPS). Visitors like to decorate the remnants of trees, once in the marsh, but now overtaken by the beach as it shifts.

Olive shells are gastrpods in the family Olividae. All have cylindrical, glossy shells with narrow, elongated apetures.
Letttered olives havea thick shell with a small pointed spire about 1/9th total shell length. Shells that are not faded or beach-worn are covered with overlapping, slightly blurry, brown zigzags that are darkest below the suture and as part of two, broad, spiral bands. Oliva reticularis (the Netted Olive) has no bands and a larger spire of about 1/7th total shell length.
The species' range is from North Carolina to Florida and the Gulf states of North America, including Louisiana and Texas; It also occurs in Mexico, and may also occur in Brazil. The lettered olive typically lives in near-shore waters, on shallow sand flats near inlets. The empty shell is occasionally, or sometimes commonly, washed up onto ocean beaches.[
Lettered Olives are carnivores and actively prey on bivalves and crabs.
The lettered olive is the state shell of South Carolina.

Shell Eco-marathon Asia - the Urban Concept class. Over several days, teams make as many attempts as possible to travel the furthest on the equivalent of one litre of fuel. Cars drive a fixed number of laps around the circuit at a set speed. Organisers calculate their energy efficiency and name a winner in each class and for each energy source. (photo by Ben Cho)
