Item# 0003230634
FamilyCypraeidae
NameZoila venusta - South Coast Deep Water ! , (G. B. Sowerby I, 1847)
Size69.3 mm
LocalityMiddle Island, Esperance
NoteIn deep water off the south coast we find venusta that are very different from their shallow water counterparts. We refer to them as deep water south coast venusta given they do not have a form name. This shell was found in May 2022 crawling on sand in 82 metres of water south of Middle Island to the east of Esperance. It is heavy, has more pronounced siphons and a narrower aperture with strong teeth compared to specimens dive collected in shallow water around the Esperance Islands. Very heavy cream shell with sparse tan dorsal spots. The shell has some pink algae and sand grains in it's nacre. Fine++.
