Volva volva

Volva volva is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Ovulidae (false cowries).

[1] In Australia the shells are commonly referred to as a shuttle or spindle egg cowry.

The canals are long and narrow, while the body whorl is about one-third or less of the shell length.

[3] Volva volva is found in the Pacific and Indian Oceans.
