Hitchiking on Australian Live rock. Shape is similar to Trochus, so I'm hopeful, but coloration somewhat resembles a sundial. I unfortunately can't find the snail to get better pics, but if it is a baddy, I will dig in there and look for more.

Shape looks wrong for collonista snail. Shape appears almost more Dove snail like.
