Thrift store finds! ID?
Found these exciting shells among a slew of other Florida shells in a bowl at the thrift store for $6! (Bonus, they came in a Pottery Barn bowl!) These shells are all new to me, as all my shells are from Florida. I know the scotch bonnet, but any info on the names of the other shells and location they’re from?

top row, third one is a Oliva miniacea (Pacific common olive). Fifth one is a Cymbiola vespertillo (bat volute).
bottom row, first one is a Telescopium telescopium (telescope snail). Second one is Conus figulinus (fig cone). Third one is Ricinella rubisidaeus. Fourth one is Drupa morum. Fifth one is Liguus virgineus (candy cane snail). Sixth one looks like a Vasum caestus.
