Size
7.1 mm
Locality
Robinson Crusoe Island
Note
One nice, although small specimen of the very rare Veneridae Paphonotia fernandesiana from the difficult to reach Robinson Crusoe Island. This one was collected alive among coarse sand and shell grit. A low initial price for an interesting and rare bivalve from the SE Pacific.
