Note

ELEGANT IRRESISTIBLE SCALES ALLA ROUND WOOOW!! Exceptional elongated scales as usual making a great effect. They are not broken if looks like, I have found exactly like that, growing natural. Light brown, yellowish and kind of pinkish color effect. Exquisite beauty of nature art. The spire displays the best conditions you can get for this species with completely intact apex. Ventral side white aperture with glossy conditions and elegant reddish original operculum. F+++-Gem. Extremely variable species with all kinds of colors, shapes, patterns, and scales. Choose your favorite in this great auction. A species very adaptable to all types of conditions from deep waters to populations at low tide exposed to the sun light. They usually like shallow and turbid waters rich in nutrients and in estuarine areas with mangroves or where oysters, mussels, Calyptraeidae species and chamas are abundant, which is their main food, they are sea scavenger and I have even found it eating dead fishes between the rocks. Found attached between stones and oysters with mud about 3m to 6m deep. Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico. September 2026. Estimated value between 25-30 euros . Good luck and happy shelling.
