Note

EXTREMELY SPECIAL RARE COLOR FORM WOOOOW!! This is only one specimen with this kind of color and pattern I have ever seen for the species. Really not the classic, believe me. Something really happens in this special shell, the most notable features are the undeveloped dots that fade out all around them, the marginal is densely dotted with ghostly, diffuse and cloudy spots in a unique shade somewhere between gray and bluish, between the dark brown background. The shell displays a very glossy brown special color all around supplemented with extra multiple growth natural marks with really elegant beautiful effect, not harming this very intrinsic beauty. Gem minus. The ventral side is coming hyper gloss with serrated striped denticles in the aperture lip and striped dark inner lip pattern. Colossal thick lip, extremities and base, heavy masterpiece. This nocturnal species are most attached under the stones during the day, the animal black-grey it assimilates like a dangerous organism with very large and thick spines, truly imposing when it is actively walking. Found attached under stones with mud about 2 and 5m deep. Barra de Navidad, Jalisco, Mexico. July 2026. Estimated value between: 40-50 euro. Good luck and Happy shelling!!! MEXICO PACIFIC.
