Item# 0004054408
FamilyCypraeidae
NameCypraea englerti - ULTRA-BIG; 1970s; SUPERB , Summers & Burgess, 1965
Size23.2 mm
LocalityEaster Island
NoteAn OUTSTANDING ULTRA-LARGE specimen, from the ‘old days’ of Easter Island collecting, when such BIG sizes were available. Meticulously curated, with rich, now fully stable colour. Particularly beautiful dusky reddish cinnamon ventrum. Supremely well-formed pattern, incorporating distinct, well-delineated mantle line. Hypermature: solid and heavy for size; pronounced marginal and ventral callosity. It is very difficult to obtain this early-collected size and quality now, coming only from choice old collections. Data: Off Tongariki, Hotuiti Bay, Easter Island; upon reef substrate, under slab; 6-8 m; dived; 1977. Size: 23.2 mm. Grading: Gem. Provenance: JES Collection; London / Melbourne.
