| Family | Cypraeidae |
| Name | Cypraea mariae - EXCEPTIONAL; FIJI FORM , Schilder, 1927 |
| Size | 16.3 mm |
| Locality | Fiji |
| Note | An exceptional, LIVE-COLLECTED specimen of the very rarely offered FIJIAN form. Ultra-large size. Incredibly beautiful large, near perfectly circular, dorsal maculae, formed with the utmost clarity. Now obtainable only from choice old collections. Rarely do I urge acquisition, but should an advanced Cypraeidae specialist desire a specimen of the rare Fijian form in a completely different league to those few others offered, then THIS is the shell to purchase. Data: Off Suva, Viti Levu, Fiji; upon coral sand/rubble substrate, amongst reef; 12 m; dived; 1990. Size: 16.3 mm. Grading: Gem. Provenance: JES Collection; London / Melbourne. |
