Item# 0002106757
FamilyCypraeidae
NameMauritia arabica - ROSTRATED! , Linnaeus, 1758
Size43,15 mm
LocalityLombok Island, Indonesia.
NoteSUPER FREAK WITH ROSTRATED ANTERIOR & POSTERIOR CANAL! First time to see this Nature's wonder. Dorsum is high with hyper-callous margin. Fully adult specimen. F+++ (Fresh Dead): soft growth lines on dorsum. I can see a few calcium is starting to built up inside the teeth, so I assume this is a fresh dead shell. I can see granulation inside the posterior & anterior canal (the rostrated part). Some very soft scratches on dorsum & margin. It really looks like live taken shell if you don't notice the inside. You will need to use magnifier glass to see. Totally ONE OF A KIND!! I always mention whatever I see as a defect on the shell by using magnifier. The grading is not a standard, it is just for general information on the quality of the shell. The beauty of the shell you can just see from the photos.
