## What is Shellock?

Shellock is a catalogue for shell collectors, built with a collector of Cypraeidae who has spent decades on his collection.

EVERY SPECIMEN, PROPERLY RECORDED
• Scientific names checked against WoRMS, the World Register of Marine Species, with author and year
• Family, genus, species, subspecies and forma, shown the way you prefer
• Size, the GEM to F− grading scale, locality, depth, collection method and year
• Up to four photos per lot on Collector, with a swipeable gallery
• Lots with several specimens, and your own lot numbers kept from your old catalogue

FIND ANYTHING IN SECONDS
• Search and filter by family, genus, grade, size, locality and status
• Save the views you use most
• A provenance atlas: see where your shells come from on a globe and on a map

SEE HOW COMPLETE YOUR COLLECTION IS
• A species checklist for each family, built from WoRMS: what you have, and what is still missing
• Coverage rings show the share of each family's living species you hold

BRING YOUR COLLECTION WITH YOU
• Import from Excel or CSV: columns are recognised in English and Italian, grades are normalised, similar dealer names are grouped
• Export everything to Excel or CSV whenever you like
• Print labels with QR codes in three sizes

SHARE WITHOUT GIVING AWAY WHAT'S PRIVATE
• Create a clean image card of a specimen to share
• Prices, values, dealers, lot numbers and exact coordinates are never included

FOUND IT YOURSELF?
• Record where and when you found a shell, from your location or from the photo

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No ads, no analytics, no tracking
• Delete your account and all its data from Settings at any time

PLANS
• Free: up to 50 specimens, photos kept on your device
