I agree with Pisania pusio. The other shell may be Arene tricarinata (Stearns, 1872). Not certain. How big is it?

Check your files and books I think is a Trochidae Liruralia ( could be a acuticostata) but according to The National Audubon Society this species is from the Pacific and i Picked up in the caribbean, could be a cousin ?
