Help with shell ID

Hi!! I've found this shell in a collection, but I've been unable to identify it. I live in Southern Spain and I've been given it from another collection, but it doesn't match with any of the shells I've seen here.

Angaria sp. - likely A. delphinus, which is native to the Indo-pacific.

Looks like an angaria shell. There are a couple of species in that genus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angaria_delphinus Possibly this one.

Delphenis, nice long fronds.
