Item | # 0002138706 | Family | Cypraeidae | Name | Barycypraea teulerei - MONSTER , Cazenavette, 1846 |
Size | 59.02 mm |
Locality | Oman |
Note | 59.02 mm, Masirah Isl. Oman, F++/Gem. Dark Monster. This is the second live collected teulerei from Masirah Island for the last 30 years. The specimen was caught not in the classical place of Sur and not at low tide. It is taken from a depth of 3-4 meters during the snorkel, I have several underwater photos of this specimen that I will put on my page in Facebook. Description of habitas. Teulerei does NOT live on corals or near coral reefs. The habitat of this species is very similar to Muracypraea mus. Mollusc prefers banks with turtle grass, while rarely living in the central part preferring to live in the border zone. Mantle is almost always completely open. The substrate on which the teulerei live consists of large sand, debris of bivalves and dead shells of the Umbonium sp. Of the other species of cowrie in these places, only Naria turdus winckworthi were found by me and if teulerei are relatively rare, then turdus come across dozens, often like Christmas toys hanging on the grass. I have never met the description of the teulerei habitat at depth, so I think it will be interesting. |
