# 🐚 De_vuelta_a_casa: Sea Shell Image Dataset
## 🌊 Dataset Description
The **De_vuelta_a_casa** dataset contains images of sea shells classified by species and divided into two geographic regions: **Caribbean** and **Pacific**. The dataset is organized into two main categories of mollusks:
- **Bivalves**: Mollusks with two shells (e.g., clams, oysters).
- **Gastropoda**: Mollusks with a single shell (e.g., snails).
Images were sourced from publicly available online resources and meticulously categorized by species within each geographic region. This dataset is ideal for:
- Image classification projects.
- Marine biodiversity research.
- Studies in marine biology.
## πŸ“‚ Dataset Structure
The dataset follows the folder structure below:
