LocalityAlgoa bay, South Africa
NoteCypraeovula edentula (J. E. Gray, 1825) Specimen Details: - Size: 18.1 mm - Location of Origin: Algoa Bay, South Africa - Status: Endemic species (limited to this region), relatively rare - Condition: Excellent condition, naturally shiny glaze, no damage/defects, sharp color and pattern Characteristics & Features This is a scaly clam of the genus Cypraeovula, typical of the cold-water areas of the southeastern coast of South Africa. - Shape: Solid, slightly rounded and elongated, with prominent edges on both sides, with distinctive pinkish-brown tips. - Color & Pattern: Clean, creamy white base, adorned with faint, circular lines and evenly distributed golden-brown spots—very beautiful and consistent. - Unique Characteristics: As the species name suggests, edentula = "toothless," the mouth lip is very smooth, lacking the fine teeth of most other cypraea clams. - Size: 18.1 mm is an excellent adult size for this species (the normal size range is only 14–20 mm). Collective Value Because it is found exclusively in Algoa Bay and its surrounding areas, its population is limited and it lives at a specific depth zone, making this species highly sought after by collectors. Specimens with such clear patterns, vibrant colors, and perfect condition as this one have exceptional value and are a source of pride in cypraea clam collections. Quality (GEM)
