Busycotypus canaliculatus

I can't find a common name in Spanish - it's likely it doesn't have one. Use the Latin name (that's why we have them) :-)

In English it seems to be referred to as the Channeled Whelk (rather than Channel).
Also, remember the species name should begin with a small letter. :o)
