Zoila ketyana bataviensis - Big Bank Shell !!! , Lorenz & H. Morrison, 2001
Size
47.8 mm
Locality
Big Bank, Kalbarri WA
Note
Collected from a geodia sponge in 55 metres of water on Big Bank northwest of Kalbarri and west of the Southern Zuytdorp Cliffs. Collected in April 2024. As this area is exposed to a heavy ground swell very few shells are in good condition and are typically chipped and have grit in their nacre. This shell is graded Fine++ as it has minor silt in the nacre on it's sides and a well re-glazed and healed chip in its columnar posterior selvage. It is a pretty shell with intact siphons. Fine++
