| Name | Zoila rosselli rosselli - BLACK BEAUTY , Cotton 1948 |
| Size | 51.6 mm |
| Locality | Dorre Island, Western Australia. |
| Note | Beautiful black pigmented classic specimen with pristine shape, symmetry and coloration. Moderately heavy for its size (26.6 grams), the specimen is outstanding in all respects with a wonderful crisp, clean and thick nacre. The dorsum displays a beautiful narrow mid-dorsal light brown dorsal patch with a cream/walnut colored diffuse window perched on the dorsal hump. The shell has an infused black dorsum blending into the deep black/walnut brown edged lateral walls and fluid base. The wonderfully flanged posterior and anterior margins show moderate tuberculation and are impressive visually. A black beauty. The shell was collected by master Scuba diver Andrew Endinger off the south end of Dorre Island, near Cliff Point, Carnarvon, Western Australia. The shell was nabbed at 43 meters while nestled on a purple Calyx sp. sponge. Original hand written data tag from Andrew included. The shell shows one subnacre micro-blister on the posterior columellar base. Grade: GEM minus. |
