Item# 0003056808
FamilyCypraeidae
NameZoila kostini northern form - 70.4 mm , Lorenz & Chiapponi, 2007
Size70.4 mm
LocalityDongara, WA
NoteDuring our ROV activity we run across quite a few very dead shells laying on the bottom. When shells die at depth, they are not worn away by wave action as wave action does not extend much beyond 120 metres or so. They simply lay there until they are carried away by a hermit crab, dissolve back into sea water or a buried to become fossils. We retain some of these, clean them up and offer them on the auction as we feel someone will appreciate them as a scientific specimen. Specimen collected from 190 metres of water west south west of Dongara in February 2023. Bright white base with dorsum pattern well kept despite some nacre loss. The shell has intact siphons but has lost nacre due to abrasion. Dead Collected Shell !!!
