| Item | # 0004145916 | | Family | LANDSNAILS | | Name | Plekocheilus succinoides - Magnificent! , Petit de la saussaye, 1840 |
| Size | 26,40 mm |
| Locality | Cundinamarca, Colombia. |
| Note | A beautiful and highly attractive specimen, displaying a rich brown coloration that gradually fades into an elegant olive-green tone along the final whorl near the lip. The shell is adorned with a spectacular pattern of beige flamules over a delicate pinkish background, a chromatic feature especially evident on the early whorls and particularly desirable among advanced collectors. Remarkably, the original periostracum is preserved — a condition rarely encountered in specimens from this locality and altitude. Both the lip and apex remain in flawless condition, while the aperture exhibits a subtle and refined pink hue that enhances the shell’s overall aesthetic appeal. Freshly collected among the leaf litter of the upper Andean cloud forest at 2650 meters above sea level in April 2026, this exceptional specimen combines rarity, freshness, and outstanding visual contrast, making it a truly captivating acquisition for any serious international collection or specialized auction. |
