Fissurella cumingi Very Large, selected
91 mm     Caldera, northern Chile     8,00 €
Item# 0003505547
FamilyFissurellidae
NameFissurella cumingi - Very Large, selected , Reeve, 1849
Size91 mm
LocalityCaldera, northern Chile
NoteOne nice and tall specimen of Fissurella cumingi, a rather uncommon Fissurella species, in very good condition for the species. Large Fissurella species are actively collected by fishermen with hooks, so they often have nicks and damage on the border of the lip, but this particular specimen is in very good condition, with just a few tiny chips in the lip (as can be seen in the images), and with a partially cleaned dorsum which still have some calcareous algae and some damage done by boring polychaetes, as can be seen in the images. The very large size of 91 mm is very rare as most of the specimens measure around 50-70 mm. An interesting large species of Fissurella from the southeastern Pacific at a low initial price.
