NameStaphylaea limacina limacina - Deep Water Specimen !!! , (Lamarck, 1810)
Size22.5 mm
LocalityBernier Island, WA
NoteDuring our ROV activity we run across quite a few very dead shells laying on the bottom. When shells die at depth, they are not worn away by wave action as wave action does not extend much beyond 120 metres or so. They simply lay there until they are carried away by a hermit crab, dissolve back into sea water or are buried to become fossils. We retain some of these, clean them up and offer them on the auction as we feel someone will appreciate them as a scientific specimen. This dead collected specimen was found in 110 metres of water west of Bernier Island during May 2024.
