NoteWonderful melanistic and rostrate shell. Basically black under normal viewing conditions. If held closely under light there is a vestigal dorsal line but displays as black. By diver 3-5m deep. Date unknown but I've had this since 2006, from my personal collection. Gem quality, has cotton wool in the aperture for some reason.
