| Family | Cypraeidae |
| Name | Zoila ketyana hypermarginata , Raybaudi 1993 |
| Size | 49.8 mm |
| Locality | Bernier Island, Carnarvon, WA |
| Note | Remarkably wide/calloused specimen with an exceptional and striking base pattern/color and a thick sparkling/glistening nacre. This newly collected shell is true to its name, demonstrating a high weight/size ratio, superb corrugation of the thick, super-flared/calloused margins and profound rounded convexity of the base (23,3 grams). The dorsum is devoid of spotting and reveals a radiant base pattern buried in a deep veil of rich dark to light burnt/orange, framed by coffee brown radiating and elongated maculae. Harvested by Scuba diver while feeding on a large purple Geodia sponge at 42 meters on a low limestone reef off Bernier Island, Carnarvon, Western Australia in 2/2025. The specimen displays subtle shallow growth creases on both ramps and a shallow short crease on the dorsum. Grade: F+++/GEM. |
