| Size | 111.7 mm |
| Locality | Australia |
| Note | NOTE: Special sales dispersing exceptional specimens from my private collection, along with highlights from my high quality stock, will continue indefinitely, without this initial notice. UMBILIA HESITATA: Virtually touching 112 mm, this magnificent giant, from the 'old days' of collecting, substantially exceeds the much coveted 110 mm threshold. Superb colour and pattern. Hypermature, with great weight to size ratio and pronounced dorsal ridging. Virtual perfection, with nothing but one very minor irregular line to dorsum, to be expected upon such a giant. Meticulously curated, with the appearance of having been collected this year. Now only obtainable at this size from choice old collections. Definitely for the advanced Umbilia specialist. Size: 111.7 mm (length). Grading: F+++. Data: Off 60 km East of Lakes Entrance, Gippsland, Victoria, Australia; upon mud/sand/detritus substrate; 220 m; trawled; 1982. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
