No longer freshly collected, with the locality now protected under the Dampier Marine Park, and Dampier Archipelago Island Reserves, with specimens of this size and quality now extremely difficult to obtain, coming only from choice old collections.

Size: 113.1 mm (longest dimension). Grading: Gem. Provenance: JES Collection; London / Melbourne. |
