FamilyTonnidae
NameMalea ringens - UNIQUE DARK BALL!!!!!!!!
Size167 mm
LocalityLos Angeles Locos,Jalisco,Mexico
NoteAmazing Globulose body form with darker cream colors as usual!! Ball shape!! Really beautiful and selected from others. Awesome and hard to get nowadays. Some scar inside the spire and near base, some small deffects otherwise gem. F+++-F++. Searching for these mysterious creatures for years there are some rare cases among them. It seems that most people know only the same typical Malea ringens, but there is variability in colors, sculptures, shapes and sizes. I have found dwarf populations and others where individuals are giants. In this auction you can see some sculpture and different shapes. For advancer collectors. The best of the best for the species. One of my favourite big shells in the pacific with so unique form and sculpture compare with all Tonas species and the biggest of the Maleas species. They are most night active , They are rarely hunting during the day. Hart to find in the day because they are most complete buried. Superb piece!!! From my private collection Found buried in sand under huge platforms about 5m deep. Near La Vena, Los Angeles Locos, Bahia de Tenacatita, Jalisco, Mexico. March 2023. Value for this ball form with darker colors: 100-120 euros. MEXICO PACIFIC.
