Item# 0003981121
FamilyConidae
NameConus vittatus - SPECIAL ORANGE COLOR !!!
Size28.2 mm, w/o
LocalityIsla Toriz, Melaque, Jal; Mexico
NoteSPECTACULAR STRONG AND VIVID FRESH RARE ORANGE COLOR FORM WOOOOW!! The most crazy strong Orange color form ever. This Exceptional masterpiece presents dense and multiple tiny granulate brown spotted banding all around the body whorl. Elegant thick band with brownish and white exquisite dots between and a second light band in near the anterior side. Resplendent contrast between the vivid Orange color and the colorful dark brown-white spotted spire. Intact lip, excellent siphon, original operculum and elegant aperture. The best of the best for the species. Possibly some microscopic imperfections like micro hole near apex, nor really harming the great conditions for this impressive Orange beauty. One of the most hard colors to get. This species is uncommon in my region. Apparently, populations are very small, with only a few individuals, and they are usually found in enclosed bays in calm, clear, muddy waters. They are rarely found directly in the open sea or on corals. The periostracum is very dense, like hair on the spire, and very thick and slippery around the body whorl. The animal is bright red-orange with striking colors and tiny black dots. Very hard to find with such incredible conditions and strong orange colors as this one. Do not miss this unique opportunity to get this uncommon species. F+++. Found buried under big stones with brown algae, soft corals and mud about 6m deep. Isla Toriz, Melaque, Jalisco, Mexico. November 2025. Value for this rare Special Orange color form with unique granulate spots banding and some light unusual brownish spot near anterior dorsum: 55-65 euro or more. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC
