Item | # 0001933385 | Family | Volutidae | Name | Amoria ellioti - DENSE DORSAL LINES. , (Sowerby, G.B. II, 1864) |
Size | 80.7 mm |
Locality | Condon, Port Hedland, N.W. Aust. |
Note | An intriguing species of volute, that uses the outgoing tide rivulets to steam along the sand to find a bivalve or other food before returning under the sand. Unlike most volutes that crack the sand flats on incoming tides, the Amoria ellioti are rarely seen, maybe only 10% of specimens would be found on the incoming tide compared to the outgoing tide. On offer is a wonderful specimen with very DENSE, close together dorsal lines, dark colour and good quality. This specimen is quite unique with its dense, heavy pattern. Graded GEM- with a soft crease on columellar side of dorsum (difficult to see). Self collected intertidal in sand flat rivulets, Condon, North of Port Hedland, N.W. Australia. |
