Exceptional specimen collected from a funnel sponge on silty sand with very sparse sessile growth in 128 metres of water. Found in August 2016 west north west of Thevenard Island. The shell has dark chocolate and tan spots on a creamy tan dorsum , distinct dark siphon trim and a faint apricot colored base. Graded Gem- due to some very soft dorsal growth.
I do not anticipate collecting further specimens given how remote the habitat is, the cost and effort of accessing that location and my age nearing retirement.
