Cowry
Cowry shells (also spelled cowrie), are marine snails of the genus Cypraea (family Cypraeidae), found chiefly in tropical regions. The shell itself is almost always smooth (a few species have granular shells) and more or less egg-shaped, with a long, narrow, slit-like opening (aperture). All varieties have a porcelain-like shine (except Hawaii's granulated cowry) and many have colorful patterns. Lengths range from 5 mm (1/5") for some species up to 15 cm (6") for the tiger cowry, Cypraea tigris.

Kaurischnecken
Kaurischnecken (Cypraeidae) oder Porzellanschnecken sind überwiegend tropische Meeresschnecken, von denen bisher etwa 200 Arten bekannt sind. Die ältesten Vertreter der Familie erscheinen in der Unter-Kreide. Früher wurde die Familie in die jetzt nicht mehr geführte Ordnung Mittelschnecken (Mesogastropoda) gestellt. Die in der populären Literatur verbreitete Bezeichnung "Kaurimuschel" ist biologisch nicht korrekt.
