Locality | Australia |
Note | A superb specimen of the much sought after Coral Bay form - for a long time now only obtainable from choice old collections. Its locality is now protected, (and strictly policed), as part of the Ningaloo Marine Park, and is also a World Heritage Site, so absolutely no fresh specimens will be available in future. The specimen exhibits the spectacular high cream margins, with bluish lavender 'frosting', for which the form is justly famed. Dorsum stippled with numerous ginger and tan maculae. One of the most beautiful of all Zoila. Size: 71.7 mm (length). Grading: Gem. Data: Coral Bay, Western Australia, Australia; upon reef substrate, upon sponge; 16 m; dived; 1990. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
