| Item | # 0003314140 | | Family | Strombidae | | Name | Lobatus peruvianus - EXTRA THICK WOOOOOOW!!!! , (Swainson, 1823) |
| Size | 163 mm, w/o |
| Locality | Playa Carrizales, Colima, Mexico |
| Note | THE MOST THICK LIP EVER!! Really heavy and massive fat piece WOOOOW!! Mythical species today in my region, this species is very mysterious and very difficult to find for all divers here in Mexico. The towns here are very small and rarely seen. Nobody collects them here in Mexico, except compressor divers and by accident, since it doesn't generate much money for them to remove them, so it is very difficult to access a piece. Here I present to you a piece with an extremely thick lip and a very extended wing. The display is on the ventral side with an incredible shine and an orange-pink color on the inside. Very intense and striking colors. The spire is almost perfect, the part of the dorsal lip in excellent condition, except for some scars present between the dorsal-base part and on the siphon exactly, a slight presence of erosion on the dorsal nodule not detracting the beauty. Super hard to get species, I will say rare!
Found between small stones with mud about 15m deep. Near Playa Carrizales, Colima, Mexico. January 2022.From my private collection. Value for this seldom seen giant thick lip : 140-160 euro. Good luck!! MEXICO PACIFIC |
