Haliotis iris BIG - HISTORICAL
147 mm     New Zealand     21,00 €
Item# 0004160072
FamilyHaliotidae
NameHaliotis iris - BIG - HISTORICAL , Gmelin, 1791
Size147 mm
LocalityNew Zealand
NoteA superb, very large specimen of this supremely beautiful species, from the very ‘old days’ of New Zealand availability – the equal oldest specimen of the JES Collection, (along with the historical Cypraea spadicea also offered in this sale). Ultra-rich apertural interior colours. Lightly inked original collection data to apertural interior, (see above right image), which can easily be removed with water, but I would advise it be left ‘in situ’, for the purposes of verification of locality and collection date. Data: ‘Tekutataki’, New Zealand; upon rock reef substrate; 1-2 m; dived; 1952. Size: 147 mm. Grading: Fine++. Provenance: JES Collection; London / Melbourne.
