Note | EXTRA SPECIAL SALE - PART 2: Part two of my extra special sale comprised entirely of exceptional specimens from my private collection, representing highlights of my collecting and dealing career. Another opportunity to acquire outstanding and unique seashells from one of the world’s pre-eminent collections. CONUS LEEHMANI: A truly superb specimen, exhibiting a spectacular minimal pattern of only four maculations of ultra-dark chestnut: two small upon columellar side of body whorl, and two larger upon labral. Ground of alternating spiral bands of pure white and nebulous ultra-pale yellow. Solid and heavy for size. Perfect outer apertural lip and siphonal canal. (Although the name leehmani is now generally relegated to synonymy, it remains useful in separating this particular form from other related species and subspecies.) Size: 60 mm (length). Grading: Gem. Data: Malaku Atoll, Maldive Islands; upon coral sand/rubble substrate, at night; 6-8 m; dived; 1998. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
