had a dive today in a shallow weedy/sandy area of corio bay and saw heaps of these things ontop of the sand. They are about the size of the palm of your hand and almost a bit leathery in texture. Was thinking they may be leftover egg shell from something. just curious if anyone knows what they are from.

"sand collar" made by snails/slugs or something like that! |

Really, always thought they were the base of a kelp stalk? |

I thought they were the top part of the spiral egg of a shark |

I thought it was a Moon Snail egg mass. You see lots in estuaries. |
