| Item | # 0003189589 |
| Family | Cypraeidae |
| Name | Zoila friendii kostini southern form - Mature Shell !!! , Lorenz & Chiapponi, 2007 |
| Size | 62.8 mm |
| Locality | Augusta, WA |
| Note | During 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 are
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. This
dead collected
kostini was found
laying on sand in a
sponge garden in
145 metres of
water south of
Augusta in
January 2023. An intact, solid shell with overall nacre loss due to abrasion. The shell has intact siphons. |
