| Note | A further three exceptional examples from my private collection of this most coveted of all Pterynotus species are offered in this sale. SPECIMEN 1: An outstanding ultra-large specimen in the classic colours of ivory with varical edges of rich caramel. Although very rare examples from Cape Leveque may attain a larger size, the size of the current specimen appears to be the limit at Ardyaloon. Exceptional preservation of varices and siphonal canals. Protoconch intact. The BEST of the best for the Muricidae specialist, or collector of truly rare and exquisite seashells. Grading: F++++; w/o. Size: 73.8 (length). Data: Off Ardyaloon, Western Australia, Australia; upon reef substrate; 4-12 m; dived; 1989. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
