Item | # 0002079938 | Family | Volutidae | Name | Harpa conoidalis , Lamarck, 1843 |
Size | 78.1 mm |
Locality | Hawaii |
Note | With original collection slip. Taken off French Frigate Shoals ca. 1989. Anterior lip a bit wavy. H. conoidalis is no longer an accepted species, one authority states, "The contemporary seminal work on world-wide Harpa is Harold Rehder's monograph The Family Harpidae of the World (1973). Rehder presented 11 species of living Harps. There have been many new taxa proposed since 1973. All but one are now generally accepted as forms of one or the other of the 11." Thus, conoidalis now is merely another Harpa major Röding, 1798. Yet specimens such as the one here do seem to have a coloration much more lively, with bright orange stripes, etc., so perhaps it should be recognized as a distinct variety of H. major. |
