Note | SPECIAL SALE - PART 8: Part eight of my current special sales comprised entirely of exceptional specimens from my private collection, representing highlights of my collecting and dealing career. Another opportunity to acquire outstanding and unique seashells from one of the world’s pre-eminent collections. CYMBIOLACCA INTRUDERI: Mostly known from dead-collected examples, this is the BEST live-collected specimen I have ever handled of this rare, deep-water endemic Queensland species. Usually with heavy growth damage and other flaws, the current specimen has a couple of tiny, negligible and very difficult to see disruptions, but is otherwise of exceptional quality. Perfect, thickened, fully mature outer apertural lip and siphonal canal. Big size. Discovered during the legendary 1980s Queensland trawls, and now obtainable only from old collections. Size: 92.8 mm (length). Grading: F+++. Data: Off East of North Reef, Capricorn and Bunker Group, Queensland, Australia; upon sand substrate; 120-160 m; trawled; 1983. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
