Please help me identify this species.
I found it in Nelson Bay, New South Wales, Australia in a sandy area with patch cabbage coral at a depth of 9 metres.

Thanks Felix.
The dark spots confused me, I didn't know if the spots were on the mantle or the shell. btw. In your book you spell it "nielseni" does it make a difference? |
