Cypraea marerubra - NEW FORM or SPECIES , Lorenz, 2009
Size
18.1 mm
Locality
Egypt
Note
Gem Finding this specimen was a big surprise for me. I received two similar specimens from southern Egypt. These specimens differ from typical marerubra in that they completely lack a spotted pattern. The teeth also remain uncolored. I couldn't find descriptions of similar specimens by Lorenz or other authors. I think this may be a new species or subspecies. The dried animal is partially preserved internally. This specimen is for study. In October, delivery within China (Beijing) will also be available at domestic postal rates
