NoteHere is a PERFECT example of this SUPER RARE species of Cribrarula. Recently have we discovered a brand new population of exmouthensis exmouthensis in the Exmouth Gulf. We have collected just a few of these incredibly rare shells of which haven't been collected in the last 20+ years ever since pearl divers were in operation in the area. A SUPERB DARK MAROON/CHESTNUT dorsum with a wicked pattern on the shell, a thin blue halo and calloused margin. The slightly rostrate terminals with a wide aperture and coarse, strong teeth are key characteristics in defining this species of which are all readily present in this species. A WONDERFUL example of this EXTREMELY ATTRACTIVE species of which is missing from most collections! This shell has come from our private collection and was live taken on a host red sponge at 16-18m from the murky waters of the Exmouth Gulf, W.A. April 2024
