Question This is not a fossil? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 06:53, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
Info No, it is extant, a member of the so called carrier shells. They collect different things and attach them to their shell at regular intervals. Some species prefer to collect shells, others corals, others stones. This species collects mainly stones, while e.g. Xenophora pallidula collects mainly shells. --Llez (talk) 08:38, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
