The episema was taken by legendary Scuba diver Peter Clarkson off St. Alouarn Island, Cape Leeuwin area, Western Australia feeding on a black sponge sitting on a limestone reef at 14 meters in 3/2002. The shell displays minor subnacre mini-flecks on the dorsum. The shell comes with Peters original hand written data slip. Grade: F+++/GEM.
