Zoila friendii sp. GIGANTIC HYBRID FORM
99.45 mm     Off Mindarie, North Perth, W.A.     405,00 €
Item# 0004147386
FamilyCypraeidae
NameZoila friendii sp. - GIGANTIC HYBRID FORM , (J. E. Gray, 1831)
Size99.45 mm
LocalityOff Mindarie, North Perth, W.A.
NoteFor offer here is a MONSTER of a Z.friendii. GONORMOUS sized shell which has a HUGELY INFLATED dorsum which increases the appearance of the size of this shell! A classic dark pattern with a complete mixture of colours covers the entirety of the shell. This shell is a female and highly likely that the friendii marina we also have for offering is the paired male shell! I have not listed this specimen as a Z.friendii marina as there is no complete set of columellar teeth although I would consider it to still be one considering the location and the other specimens we find the same area. Although there is some obvious flaws this is still a HIGHLY IMPRESSIVE shell of which similar shells are almost never seen! F+/F++ condition with some growth faults and dorsal imperfections but no chips and presents wonderfully well! Live taken by Jon Daly from a large orange Spirastrella sponge on low profile reef at 28m at extremely close proximity to the other Z. friendii marina we have on offer this auction. Off Mindarie, North of Perth, W.A. December 2025
