introduced a tall in the Alabama Senate to make the Scap onia Johnstoneae the offi of Alabama Lest you start scoffing that is no ordinary Scaphella Nor ordinary Junonia either for that matter "It is very rare and found only in Alabama waters" Mis Bedsole said Commonly called Junonia the shell was named for Kathleen Yerger Johnstone of Mobile wife of architect Harry Inge Johnstone and a noted amateur concboiogist someone who studies shells) The shell first described by Harvard University scientist William Clench is found only in waters from 10 to 45 miles off Bavou la Batre and Gulf Shores Tucker Abbott director of the Shell Museum and Educational Foundation Inc at Sanibel Fla said it is time Alabama had an official state shell Joining states such as' Florida Georgia South Carolina and Texas Abbott said the move is appropriate because of public concern over the gradual disappearance rf natural wildlife and sealife "Should the wise legislators of Alabama decide to take the meaningful public relations action I do hope that their choice will be an attractive shell that is unique to the waters of Alabama" Abbott said "I can think of no more appropriate shell than the beautiful Johnstone's Junonia" The shell can reach 45 inches in length Its light brownish orange body cdor differentiates it from the other white Junonia shells It has a series of dark mahogany brown spots in a spiral form around the conch shape "It is really a rare and beautiful shell By using pictures of it we could help promote the tourism industry Mrs Bedsole said Pst-HeraM Reporter Federal investigators
