Morum ponderosum EXTREMELY RARE
38.6 mm     Japan     1375,00 €
Item# 0003958977
FamilyHarpidae
NameMorum ponderosum - EXTREMELY RARE , Hanley, 1858
Size38.6 mm
LocalityJapan
NoteA VINTAGE PONDEROSUM IN LARGE SIZE AND GREAT CONDITION. With fresh colors despite having been fished by now 32 years ago. This is a truly rare species, seldom seen in collections. Most records in the literature are from Japan, but apparently the species has a taste for lonely islands: recorded as such from AmamiOshima, Okinawa, Tonga, Pitcairn and Rurukua. Also offshore Japan from Tanegashima. So rare that one could only trace 15 pieces in the literature. From the 5 pieces Conchology Inc. handled in 18 years, this is the 2nd biggest. Wonderful item. F++, almost gem. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire such an exquisite piece. Japan. Okinawa. Seragaki. 30-40 m. In small sand patch. Ex. collection G.T. Poppe. #1062610
