NameAstraea olivacea - SPECIAL GREEEEN COLOR!!!

LocalityPlaya el Tecuan, Jalisco, Mexico
NoteRARE!!!SPECIAL DEEP GREEEEEN AND PATTERN COLOR WOOOOW!!! EXCLUSIVE OFFER with the best fresh green color and spotted you can have!! Beautiful clear banded and brownish near the apex and at the near spire side. Awesome green deep fresh color combined with super elevated axial ribs. Specimen with 50mm high x 69.2mm wide!! The best sculpture combined with pattern and extra light dark dots WOOOW!! Unique opportunity to get this unique rare species with almost complete and perfect apex, beautiful spire, wide lip, original operculum, dark dots around, banded, green fresh colors and great size. I was looking this species for years!! I know there are some population in north of Mexico and south in Oaxaca but between, it could be the only existing population between. In fact the population is only living between 50 square meters in a rocky beach, very small place, between 1 and 1.5m deep. I was so lucky to find them only because I found one fresh dead 12 years ago. So I was sure they are somewhere there. Seldom seen in collections and for sure in the market with so fresh colors, awesome sculpture and the most impressive is the dark dots combined with the deep green and texture. For serious collectors and lovers of especial and rare species. Some minor defects, not detracting the beauty of this fresh seldom seen species in Mexico. Some light scar between the pattern not detracting the beauty. F+++. Found attached on big stones about 1 to 1.5m deep Playa el Tecuan, Jalisco, Mexico. December 2023. Value for this rarity: 100-130 euro. MEXICO PACIFIC. Seller country is Germany please check shipping prices only with tracking number. Thank you and good luck!
