Carlos Henckes Collection

Carlos was born in São Paulo, Brazil in July 30, 1970. He started collecting in 1999 and already has more than 2,000 species of all kind of shells although Conidae e Xenophoridae are his preferred families. His shells are kept neatly in drawers with individual labels made in white fonts on black background - it looks very nice! He uses half plastic boxes for smaller shells on drawers covered with black felt.

He is the President of our local Shell Club, Conquiliologistas do Brasil and he is Femorale's webmaster and photographer.
