Size | 89.6 mm |
Locality | Australia |
Note | A superb example of the monumental Kangaroo Island form, (virtually touching 90 mm), now only obtainable from the finest old collections, and a highly sought after shell amongst Zoila connoisseurs. Characteristic enormous size; expansive ventrum; steep dorsal acclivity; markedly solidity; and great weight to size ratio. One tiny inclusion, but otherwise exceptional quality for this typically rough form. A very rare opportunity to create your own price for an extremely high-value Zoila. Size: 89.6 mm (length). Grading: F+++. Data: Cuttlefish Bay, Kangaroo Island, South Australia, Australia; upon reef substrate, upon sponge, upon reef ledge; 24 m; dived; 1997. Provenance: JES private collection, Melbourne/London. |
