Note | LIVONIA ROADNIGHTAE FEATURE: The beautiful Great Australian Bight form of this endemic southern Australian species has always been a favourite of mine, and during the now finished years of availability I assembled a magnificent selection of the very BEST pattern designs, ranging from ultra-dense markings, to patternless examples. It is now time to pass the fruits of my years of selecting the very BEST specimens to other like-minded appreciators of this fabulous form. A unique opportunity for the Volutidae specialist. SPECIMEN 11: A magnificent GIANT specimen, exhibiting a superb pattern and beautiful colour. Rare quality for this typically very rough, trawled, deep-water species, with virtually perfect outer apertural lip, and minor trawl fraying to siphonal canal, (almost always damaged during the trawling process). The LARGEST specimen I have to offer of the Great Australian Bight form. (NOTE: Postage for these large shells is at my rounded down rate of 30 EUR for one or two shells to anywhere in the world. Three or more shells will incur a higher fee.) Size: c.197.4 mm (length). Grading: F+++. Data: Great Australian Bight, off Ceduna, South Australia, Australia; upon sand substrate; 140-190 m; trawled; 2000. Provenance: JES private collection; Melbourne/London. |
