| Item | # 0001883695 | | Family | Conidae | | Name | Conus ranonganus - ULTRA-BIG; OUTSTANDING , (da Motta, 1978) |
| Size | 101.2 mm |
| Locality | Thailand |
| Note | An ultra-big and truly outstanding example of this supremely beautiful species. Markedly elongate form. Beautiful pattern, formed with uncommon regularity. Exceptional colour, quite different to typical examples: entire shell suffused with delicate pink; rich orangish pink anterior canal. Incredible preservation of the ultra fine spire and protoconch, the latter being lost upon the majority of examples. In a different league to most ranonganus offered. It is extremely difficult to obtain a specimen like this. Size: 101.2 mm (length). Grading: Fine+++. Data: Andaman Sea, off Racha Yai, Racha Islands, Phuket, Thailand; upon sand/silt/rubble substrate; amongst sponges; 80-120 m; trawled; 2014. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
