Item# 0003474652
FamilyVolutidae
NameMelo miltonis - RARE 330 mm GIANT , Griffith & Pidgeon, 1834
Size330 mm
LocalityAustralia
NoteThe scarcest of Australia’s Melo species. Difficult to obtain at any size now, but very seldom encountered or offered over 300 mm. This old age GIANT was collected over half a century ago. Apertural lip lightly smoothed, as was standard practice in the 1970s. A rare opportunity for a Volutidae specialist, or dedicated collector of giant sized shells. Note: This shell requires substantial packing, in a very large parcel for safe transit, but I will round down postage to 100 EUR to anywhere in the world. Please factor this when bidding. Data: Off Augusta, Western Australia, Australia; upon sand substrate; 20-40 m; trawled; 1970s. Size: c.330 mm. Grading: Fine+.
