Item | # 0002879182 | Family | Cypraeidae | Name | Leporicypraea mappa mappa - SUPERB UNIQUE RARITY. , OUTSTANDING. |
Size | 79.0 mm |
Locality | Palawan, Philippines. |
Note | Another SUPERB UNIQUE specimen with longitudinal linear dorsal lines that are AMAZINGLY very pronounced growth step ridges right across the dorsum, even starting on the base. INCREDIBILY UNIQUE specimen, I would think never seen before, at least not in my 3000 specimen collection. Let's not overlook the wonderful overall pink coloured hue over this specimen. Understandably I have used the extra images that shellauction offer to convey these features as best as I can and of course with these extra images comes the requested E200 starting price, which I would not consider parting with this specimen for anything less. I have graded the specimen FINE+++ as with the other 2 amazing mappa specimens, with the suggestion of a soft growth step amongst these ridges, not detracting from this TRULY UNIQUE SPECIMEN. Diver collected by local hookah diver, off Palawan, Philippines in April 2009. Provenance: From my own personal collection. ALL WHITE REFLECTIONS AND DULL AREAS FROM THE CAMERA LIGHTING. |
