Zoila jeaniana - Golden Apricot Base !!! , C. N. Cate, 1968
Size
66.3 mm
Locality
Zuytdorp Cliffs, WA
Note
This shell was ROV collected from 90 metres of water west of the Zuytdorp Cliffs in Western Australia during May 2021. A lovely shell with high cream sides creating a blue border to the brown mottled dorsum. The siphons are intact and are dark orange to match it's brilliant golden peach base. Most would grade it Gem but to be conservative I have graded it Gem- as the hint of a fold can be felt when I run my thumb over the shells dorsum.
