F+++/GEM. POWERFUL COLORS. S. rubeculum RED = 44.7 mm; S. rubeculum LINED = 35.6 mm; S. bibbeyi = 35.6 mm; S. flaveolum = 41 mm. From a diver in Olango Island and taken the same night, 4 pieces of the famous genus Septa. The flaveolum is not so common as the rubeculum. The two rubeculum are nice: the upper one is very red with the white spots becoming orange and the dorsal line almost disappearing. The lower one is with magnificent black lines between the raised spiral ribs. Compare both rubeculum with the quite large bibbeyi: this species has always only one white spot on the outer lip. The flaveolum, of course, stands out by its brown coloration in shades. This is a nice gossip set for the collection.
