Yeah, probably a Ringed Cowrie. That's a great hitchhiker!

[pinkreef]

cowries are neat snails, he will retract his 'ugly' covering if disturbed and
expose his nice shiny shell. i have a gold ring hitcher ive had for years

[gobytron]

I've paid 5$ for one of those before.

One of my favorite snails..seriously I've only lost a couple in years. They hide under rocks and stuff and come out when the lights are out at night.
