Dear readers,

Who can inform me about websites or books on identifying Thai shells? This in the context of my collection (museum) of world shells.

Regards,

    Dear,

    It is best to ask that question to Shell's manager. Museum in Rawai (Phuket).
    That man has the largest collection of shells from all over the world and has built a beautiful museum with it.

    Dear,
    We have used the 3 books below during our many dives in the Andaman Sea.

    Shells Encyclopedia:
    Description
    In this Illustrated Shell Encyclopedia you will find images and descriptions of a large number of shells from around the world. The true-to-life photos in this book give you an impression of the most famous shell species that occur worldwide, in both tropical and more temperate regions. The species groups and the species in those groups are arranged alphabetically by scientific genus name, making it easier to look up. The Illustrated Shells Encyclopedia is a wonderful reference work with which you can name shells yourself, whether you do this as a hobby or in the context of a study.
