Long body shape with the best spire and intact apex. Impressive sculpture , just the best of the best for the species. For aesthetic collectors and lovers of this fantastic Family. Some natural grow marks really almost lost not detracting the beauty, otherwise Museum piece. F+++-Gem. Searching for these mysterious creatures for years there are some rare cases among them. It seems that most people know only the same typical Malea ringens, but there is variability in colors, sculptures, shapes and sizes. I have found dwarf populations and others where individuals are giants. In this auction you can see some sculpture and different shapes. For advancer collectors. The best of the best for the species. One of my Favorite big shells in the pacific with so unique form and sculpture compare with all Tonas species and the biggest of the Maleas species. They are most night active , They are rarely hunting during the day. Hart to find in the day because they are most complete buried. Superb fresh piece!!! Found buried in sand under huge platforms about 5m deep. Near La Vena, Los Angeles Locos, Bahia de Tenacatita, Jalisco, Mexico. December 2024. Value for this unique fresh cream beautiful color with spectacular sculpture: 100-140 euros. ATTENTION!!!
