| Item | # 0004065257 | | Family | LANDSNAILS | | Name | Solaropsis gibboni - Spectacular pattern. , Pilsbry,1846 |
| Size | 58,96 mm |
| Locality | Santander, Colombia. |
| Note | Magnificent brown-shelled specimen displaying a truly spectacular pattern, enhanced by an elegant spiral banding girdle that encircles the entire whorl with remarkable symmetry. The shell shows a lustrous, well-developed outer lip (peristome), a definitive indication of full adult maturity, and is preserved in notably fresh condition—an increasingly scarce quality in today’s market.
Collected among the leaf litter of humid forest at 1,550 meters above sea level in March 2025, this specimen originates from a region renowned for its extraordinary biodiversity, yet one that is progressively threatened by logging and ongoing deforestation. Material from such habitats is becoming more limited each year, further underscoring its exclusivity.
This represents a rare opportunity to secure a classic species in superior condition, combining aesthetic excellence, ecological authenticity, and true collecting prestige. A highly desirable acquisition destined to stand out in any advanced international land snail collection. |
