FamilyCassidae
NameCassis fimbriata - ULTRA RARE GOLDEN FORM. , LARGE, ONE OF A KIND.
Size98.0 mm
LocalityGeographe Bay, Busselton, W.A.
NoteI can only think this specimen is ULTRA RARE with its very UNIQUE colours of white with yellow / gold colouring. Very different from the normal grey and beige typical coloured specimens. Its pale white and gold colour form stands out amongst all others. Its location is also considered RARE being Geographe Bay, Busselton, S.W. Australia. Taken in 1975 by a diver in 5M depth in sand substrate just outside the inshore seagrasses. A very impressive specimen at just under 100mm in length with only minor internal glossed chip on the siphonal tail and a tiny 3mm crack line on anterior tail of the basal plate. Both very inconspicuous and minor faults for such a LARGE and UNIQUE colour form. I have not seen a specimen like this before and think that it would be one of a kind or one of a few similar specimens. One for the Cassidae and general collectors although it would fit in any collection being so UNIQUE. ALL WHITE REFLECTIONS AND DULL AREAS FROM THE CAMERA LIGHTING.
