How to list Shared Photo Stream Albums with PhotoKit

I can obtain a list of Photo Albums created on the device with PHFetchResult *results = [PHCollectionList fetchTopLevelUserCollectionsWithOptions:nil];

I imagine there must be a similar way to obtain Shared Photo Streams Albums (or as I think they may be called now "iCloud Photo Sharing Albums"), but for the life of me...can't figure it out. Has anyone solved this problem?

For those looking for the swift syntax:

let result = PHAssetCollection.fetchAssetCollections(with: PHAssetCollectionType.album, subtype: PHAssetCollectionSubtype.albumCloudShared, options: nil)

result.enumerateObjects { (phassetcollection, index, setThisToTrueToStop) in
    print("\(index): \(phassetcollection.localizedTitle)  \(phassetcollection.localIdentifier)")
}

PhotoKit's querying logic confuses the hell out me, but here is the answer below works for me (hint: you have to query a PHAssetCollection, not a PHCollectionList)

PHFetchResult *results = [PHAssetCollection fetchAssetCollectionsWithType:PHAssetCollectionTypeAlbum subtype:PHAssetCollectionSubtypeAlbumCloudShared options:nil]
