| Size | 187 mm |

| Note | Melo melo is actually rather rare within Queensland waters, its stronghold being farther North, in Indonesia and the Philippines. This was the LARGEST and FINEST specimen I ever obtained of the Queensland form for the JES Collection. Beautiful rich earth colours. Exemplrary quality for this deep-water, trawled, typically very rough species. A product of the legendary 1980s Queensland trawls – never collected since – and now obtainable only from choice old collections. Data: Off Caloundra, Sunshine Coast Region, Queensland, Australia; upon sand substrate; 40-80 m; trawled; 1980. Size: 187 mm. Grading: Fine+++. Provenance: JES Collection; London / Melbourne. |
