74.1 mm     Esperance W.A     63,00 €
Item# 0004121915
FamilyCypraeidae
NameZoila venusta roseopunctata - NICE BULBOUS SHELL , (G. B. Sowerby I, 1847)
Size74.1 mm
LocalityEsperance W.A
NoteOver the past 10-15 years the number of divers that access the Southern West-Australian coastline has steadily declined to the point where only a handful of dives are carried out each year. This is due to increased shark encounters and newly implemented Marine Parks which have drastically cut into the areas where Commercial Specimen Shell divers can access. Each year we bravely embark upon a campaign to explore the deeper waters off Esperance which are well known for large, bulbous shaped venusta and this is one of the wonderful DIVER HAND COLLECTED specimens we were fortunate enough to harvest. A SUPER PINK shell with the classic small dark spots across the dorsum and surrounded by the PURPLE MARGINS make for a super attractive shell, despite the growth flaws. This shell here is graded F+/F++ with a growth line of side of the shell and some dorsal issues . Found on a large grey dome sponge on limestone wall 26m. Recherche Archipelago, Off Esperance, W.A . April 2025.
