Bruce returned from Broome last month where he visited Johan Pas, naturalist and shell collector. As a result we have 9 new shells on display including a famed "Broome Blue" cowrie. The other 8 shells are Conus (cone shells).

Below is the list of new additions:


Cypraea errones azurea “Broome Blue”

Conus musicus
Conus victoriae (brown)
Conus textile
Conus eburneus
Conus miles
Conus teselatus
Conus planorbis
Conus lividus
