Colour pattern is not consistent with Thersites and size is too small. Definitely Camaenidae, perhaps Ponderconcha murphyi.

This is a difficult one because it is immature and there is no outer lip to define it. It could possibly be Ventopelita leucocheilus which is known from Coffs Harbour northward but there is a possibility it may be either Ponderconcha murphyi or an as yet undescribed camaenid that occurs in coastal situations between Port Macquarie and the Clarence River.
