| Size | 61.5 mm, w/o |
| Locality | Barra de Navidad, Jalisco,Mexico |
| Note | DARK HIGH NODULES!! Fresh top colors WOOOW!! Some light purplish inner lip with very elegant high top nodules with awesome scales, with superb conditions for the species. Intact thin great lip, beautiful base, scales, nodules and original operculum. Elegant and beautiful scales and high nodules. Some pin holes between some scales and body around base side not really detracting the beauty. Really seldom seen species and hard to get in any conditions. This particular species is always found attached to large stones and apparently feeds more at night. Devourer of marine worms! Their shells are generally always accompanied by many types of calcareous organisms and algae making them invisible in many cases and very very hard to clean. You need to have a very good eye to find them, and they are rare species. Very rarely do you find good specimens with impressive conditions like this. This is the perfect example to appreciate the beauty of a Neorapana muricata with awesome scales and dark color. Small pin hole in apex almost perfect. F+++. Found attached between stones with mud about 6m deep. Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico. December 2023: Value: 75-100 euros. MEXICO PACIFIC |
