FamilyCypraeidae
NameZoila venusta episema - DARK GLOSSY GEM , Iredale, 1939
Size65.07 mm
LocalityNorth of Rottnest Island, W.A.
NoteHere is a classic DARK CHOC-TOP venusta from the deepwater reefs North of Rottnest Island. Its lovely ovate shape with a slightly lower profile than other specimens from the same area which does not detract at all and if anything creates a point of difference for this shell. The dorsal covering is an almost UNIFORM DARK BROWN pattern with just a few small golden windows peering through and a soft BLUE HALO splitting the dorsum from the GREY MARGINS. A striking shell which is far more impressive in hand than shown in the images! GEM condition with no flaws that I can see. Live taken on host yellow sponge on the roof of a massive limestone cave at 31m. 3 Miles North of Rottnest Island, W.A. April 2025 *White marks are from camera reflection. Please ask about further images*
