NameAstrea olivacea - SPECIAL PATTERN WOOOW!!!

LocalityPlaya el Tecuan, Jalisco, Mexico
NoteRARE!!!SPECIAL GREEN AND PATTERN COLOR WOOOOW!!! EXTRA BANDED!! Giant specimen with 54.6mm high x 75.1mm wide!! The best sculpture combined with pattern and extra light dark dots WOOOW!! Unique opportunity to get this unique rare species with almost complete apex, beautiful spire, wide lip, original operculum, dark dots around, banded, green fresh colors and great size. I was looking this species for years!! I know there are some population in north of Mexico and south in Oaxaca but between, it could be the only existing population. In fact the population is only living between 50 square meters in a rocky beach, very small place, between 1 and 1.5m deep. I was so lucky to find them only because I found one fresh dead 10 year ago. So I was sure they are somewhere there. Seldom seen in collections and for sure in the market with so fresh colors, awesome sculpture and the most impressive is the light dark dots and extra fingers. For serious collectors and lovers of especial and rare species. Some minor defects, not detracting the beauty of this fresh seldom seen species in Mexico. Some light erosion and scars between the pattern not detracting the beauty. F++. Found attached on big stones about 1 to 1.5m deep Playa el Tecuan, Jalisco, Mexico. December 2023. Value for this rarity: 85-100 euro. MEXICO PACIFIC.
