Note

ULTRA RAREEEEEE REAL ALBINO!!! This is a unique situation and once in a lifetime where you find a very rare species, and at the same time, its rarity is doubled because it is albino! I have found this ultra rare albino with the classic calcareous around the body and after cleaning with ultrasonic scaler then I find out there is no pattern and no color, just white from siphon to apex and from dorsum to ventral side. Live collected with dry animal inside and operculum, I could not take it out, but still there. Very probably the first albino ever found in the history of this species and with giant size. This unique and last opportunity to get this real albino for a very gentlemen start price. This is a mythical species in my region , almost impossible to get, really rare , probably the populations are so small and they are really buried in deep, I have found some attached in buried stones about 20-30cm under the muddy sand making so hard to find. Special sculpture with elegant thick varices, amazing superb spire with nice almost intact apex, aperture very wide with glossy porcelain effect, the lip shows a great thickness, siphon intact and elegant light elevated spiral ribs around. I think I have found about 8 specimens in 11 years diving and this is the first and only Albino ever. Ultra rare seldom seen species in Mexico. There are very deep buried in mud almost impossible to get them. Absent in many collections, here the unique and once in a life time opportunity to get this ultra rarity and albino at good price. Top fresh white color, elegant aperture and superb inside outer lip denticles. Live collected and original operculum inside the shell with dried animal. Some light erosion near the ventral side not harming this rara beauty. F+++. Found attached in big buried stone(15cm buried) about 5m to 6m deep. Isla Toriz, Melaque, Jalisco, Mexico. November 2025. Value for the real ultra rare albino in this rare species: 350-500 euro. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC
