Starfish of all kinds. Both small and large ones will do. They must be dried gently. A few land and sea crabs, one or two of each kind. They must be whole, so they must be emptied, their shells replaced on their backs, and their legs and tails filled and left to dry slowly to keep them closed. A few lobsters and sea crayfish, which must be prepared in the same way. A few hermit crabs and whatever shellfish they catch. Sea urchins, sea cucumbers or sea hedgehogs of any kind, some with spines and others without. The crabs, sea urchins, sea cucumbers, starfish and anything else that might be fragile must be wrapped in a little cotton wool. Each piece should be wrapped in a piece of paper to prevent them from creasing and breaking during transport. Shells. We also needed some shells, but only a couple of each species are needed, and the shells should be fresh, i.e. those that have been made and from which the fish has been pulled out alive. Do not take any that are broken or have been washed up on the shore, nor any helmet shells or lambine shells, as these are too large and are common here. Stone plants. If there are stone plants of different kinds around the islands of [...], it would be good to have a few pieces of each species, as these are used to make lime on the islands.
