NameZoila venusta episema f. sorrentensis - ULTRA RARE FORM. , UNBELIEVIBLE SPECIMEN BLACK, BURGUNDY DORSUM AND BASE.

LocalityGarden Is, Fremantle, W.Aust.
NoteI have listed two ULTRA RARE specimens of Zoila venusta episema f. sorrentensis. These have been sourced over many years and represent ONE OF A KIND specimens. The second being a specimen with amazing, uniform DARK/BURGUNDY colouration over the entire dorsum, margins and base. Deep below the colouration are inclusions and the animal with these irritations has excreted a burgundy coloured nacre to cover the inclusions, giving the specimen a super dark appearance and strong burgundy colouration, folding onto the ENTIRE base. A ONE OF A KIND SPECIMEN, incredible talking point in any collection. With a starting price of E200 due to using the extra images provide by the Shellauction. Diver taken in 12M on reef platform, off Garden Island, Fremantle, W. Australia. ALL WHITE REFLECTIONS AND DULL AREAS ARE FROM THE CAMERA LIGHTING.
