| Item | # 0003558380 | | Family | Cassidae | | Name | Cypraecassis coarctata - WHITE SPECIAL COLOR!!!!! |
| Size | 57.5 mm |
| Locality | Barra de Navidad, Jalisco,Mexico |
| Note | WHITE COLOR FORM AND MARVELOUS PATTERN WOOOOOW!! Special pattern for the species, look at this beauty and magnificent masterpiece. Large dark brown spot all around the dorsum combined with elevated nodules on top and white lip and ventral side with fascinate micro forms all around, intact apex, superb spire with the best sculpture-pattern for the species, perfect curved intact siphon canal, some tiny chip in lip not really harming the beauty. Impressive piece with large size for the species 57.5mm, F+++. These mysterious species are usually buried under the granular sand in the coastal zone, between 1m to 10m deep, but they are usually in areas where there are sea urchins, which is what they like the most. But they are nocturnal and are rarely seen hunting during the day. Some are 1cm under the sand but in extreme cases and growth I have found up to 30cm under the sand. The incredible bright orange animal with bright colors makes you think they are dangerous. I consider this species to be rare after so many years of searching for them in their territory. They are also solitary, which makes them more difficult to find, especially when they are buried, resting or growing. Here I show you in this auction a variety of these with unique and exclusive shapes and colors. Found buried 10cm in sand between stones and thixk sand about 2m-3m deep. Corrales near Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico. December 2024. Value for this rarity and special WHITE color form with unique pattern: 48-56 euro. ATTENTION!!! Dear friends the seller country is Mexico now, please check, thank you for your understanding. Marry Christmas and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC |
