NameAmoria praetexta - SMALL WELD IS. FORM , Reeve, 1849

NoteA beautiful specimen of the diminutive Weld Island form, exhibiting an incredibly intricate pattern.

Now obtainable only from choice old collections. Perfect, fully mature outer apertural lip and siphonal canal. For the Volutidae collection yet lacking the Weld Island form. Size: 32.7 mm (length). Grading: F++++. Data: Off Weld Island, Mardie, Western Australia, Australia; upon sand substrate at extreme seasonal low tide; 1986. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London.
