This incredible shell was found in 112 metres of water west of Bernier Island among a population of small typical aurata. It fits best with the name aureabasis which Raybaudi applied to a limited number of aurata he obtain from Taiwanese trawlers. As can be seen in the photos is has the classic aurata shape and dorsum but with a bright orange red base. It has a small growth scar on its anterior labial side. Truly a magnificent and very rare specimen. Gem-
