Item# 0002381225
FamilyVolutidae
NameAmoria cf chaneyi - Probably a new species.
Size58.4 mm
LocalityFalse Entrance, WA
NoteOver the past ten years we have collected five or six specimens of a small Amoria volute which we have not been able to identify. We have found them from Kalbarri through to Gnaraloo in depths between 85 and 170 metres of water. All have been very similar with near identical color patterns, size, shape and protoconchs. At first I thought it was a northern chaneyi but it is quite different to the chaneyi we have found on the lower west coast. This specimen is a crabbed shell we collected on our last trip in 112 metres of water west of False Entrance. It is without any growth defect, has full dorsal nacre and gloss. The base has some nacre erosion. The lip is mature and intact other than a couple on very minor chips. Superficial they look like damoni but they are far smaller and different to damoni found at the same locations. A new species ????
