Greatly excited at the thought of discovering a southern variant of a Porcelain snail (Rhachistia), I emailed these shots to Dai Herbert who quickly disabused me of my boyish enthusiasm.

15mm shell on Scadoxis leaf. Morning after heavy rains washed usual thin dust-like shell-coating clean.

Location: 3 Marion Ave, Scottburgh

Thanks, but truly so had it been a Rhachistia ...
