NameCypraea pantherina f. syringa - GIGANTIC , Sulliotti G.R. 1924

NoteDensely patterned specimen displaying intense black spotting painted on a dorsum with rich shades of tawny/tortilla brown with a subtle golden chestnut lateral line. Large size, thick nacre lustre, perfect extremities and inflated shape highlights the commendable attributes of this superb large specimen. The pattern and glossy nacre complement a strong weight/size ratio (111.4 grams). The sides display a sparse array of spotting with pleasing pastel pink color tones. The pantherina was captured from a rocky coral reef crevice in 2024 off Shalateen, Egypt by a Scuba diver on a night dive at 30-35 meters. The specimen exhibits nacre flecking/blemishing on the dorsum/anterior ramp and nacred wobbles on the columellar posterior ramp extending to the mid-lateral wall buried in the strongly pigmented pattern. Grade: F++.
