| Note | F+++. Rumours go about “dived” Conus gloriamaris, and some experts think they do not exist. "This shell is one out of 3 which is proof they exist and which I purchased directly from the source. This is the third one I see in my career (G.T. Poppe)". The two other pieces were dived on Mactan Island. All three dived gloriamaris are much paler than the type taken with tangle nets. This is the first one catched at 60 m at night near Nasingin Island, northern Bohol. The pattern is highly contrasted and pale, the spire much higher than in deep water shells. This Glory of the Sea is an important shell, worth any museum. HYPOTYPE in the twin books: 1000 Shells, exceptionals from the Philippines.
Philippines. Bohol. Nasingin. 60 m. 2012.
