FASCIOLARIIDAE (Spindles, Latirus, Tulips etc.)
Approx. 200 species in this Family living in tropical to temperate waters. The large spindles are a showy inclusion in a collection but this Family tends not to be very popular amongst collectors. A lot of the species are deep water dwellers but some like the Peristernias live amongst rocks on reefs and rocky headlands and so are quite easy to collect.
