NameDrymaeus smithii - Rare. , Da costa,1898

LocalityCundinamarca, Colombia.
NoteA magnificent specimen of Drymaeus smithii, distinguished by an exceptional chromatic display of rich brown spiral bands harmoniously distributed across a lustrous shell surface. The peristome exhibits a strongly developed and twisted fold—an unmistakable indication of full maturity—perfectly preserved and enhancing the shell’s refined morphology and overall collector appeal. The aperture reveals a striking coffee-brown interior, providing a beautiful contrast to the external coloration and further emphasizing the aesthetic quality of this remarkable specimen. Collected fresh among the leaf litter of a pristine Andean cloud forest at 2,210 meters above sea level in May 2026, its extraordinary high-elevation origin significantly enhances both its exclusivity and scientific relevance. Specimens of this caliber, maturity, and vibrant coloration, originating from such elevations, are seldom encountered on the international market. An exceptional opportunity to acquire a visually captivating and ecologically authentic example of D. smithii—a true centerpiece specimen destined to attract admiration and become a highlight of any serious collection of Neotropical terrestrial gastropods.
