Item | # 0003306887 |
Family | Fissurellidae |
Name | Fissurella crassa , Lamarck, 1822 |
Size | 80.4 mm |
Locality | Caldera, northern Chile |
Note | A nice specimen of Fissurella crassa. Large Fissurella species in northern Chile are actively collected by fishermen, so they often have nicks and damages on the border of the lip, and they are always found with scurria scars on the shells. This particular specimen is in good condition for the species, as it has a nice border of the shell with a natural dorsum partially covered by brownish algae and with many tiny boreholes done by the rare burrowing barnacle Cryptophialus, as can be seen in the images. These boreholes have made the shell very light for its size. A low price for an interesting natural history item. |
