Dear Bill,
This animal are found only several times on Caulerpa sp. during Spring and the beginning of Summer. It looks Volvatella viridis to me, but I'm not sure.
Please give me your help.
Depth : 2m
Size : 20mm

This certainly fits the description of Volvatella viridis. It is good to get photos of these shelled animals alive as we know so little about their habits and distribution.
Best wishes,
