Note

LARGE BEAUTY WITH DEEP DARK BROWN-GREEN COLOR FORM!! LOTTIIDAE - Lottia stanfordiana (Berry, 1957). Spectacular unique pattern with so dark colors and the most beautiful gloss bluish ventral side. The real daker beauty with superb elegance. In this special auction you can get the most high selection of the species with different forms, patterns and colors. The best of the best for the species, hard and dangerous to get them between strong currents and big waves. This is a jewel pattern-colors for connoisseurs of this Family, so hard to get this top conditions. Exceptional beauty, do not miss this unique opportunity. Gem-F+++. Apparently feeding on the algae growing in the stones and marine soup that comes and goes with the currents, waves and seaweeds, this species lives where the waves break and in the intertidal zone. Really hard to remove from stones without braking them and you need a lot of experience to get them intact. Taking and waiting long time to get the perfect moment when they are distracted, otherwise they are strong attached and impossible to remove. Found attached to the rocks with green and brown algae at extremely low tide. Playa El Tecuan, Jalisco, Mexico. May 2025. Value for this special bluish and so dark dorsal colors: 25-28 euro. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC
