Sectional view pictures of land and sea shells showing gastropods internal structure, which is not often the focus in books or museum collections or anywhere.
Only rule - add gastropod shells which shows internal structure reasonably well.
a chipped off fragment or a drilled hole in shell is not internal view unless the observation includes pics showing internal views decently, similarly observations showing just shell aperture view is also not sectional internal view - browse current project observations for ideas.
you can check another project for fragments, which has slightly different goals and rules - https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/seashell-fragments
Whether you are just curious or IDer of shells, please join and add observations that can help researchers or anyone who can utilise this data to form better functional understanding of these shells as such data is scarce in real world or even raise and hypothesise better questions. stay tuned by joining project for blog posts for such writings.
