Florivasum lactisfloris EXTREMELY RARE NEW WRS
72,2 mm     Somalia     1225,00 €
Item# 0004153198
FamilyTurbinellidae
NameFlorivasum lactisfloris - EXTREMELY RARE NEW WRS , (Ferrario, 1983)
Size72,2 mm
LocalitySomalia
NoteTrawled at 200-300 meters deep, Ras Hafun, 1982 local fisherman, All known specimens originate from a very narrow, deep-water zone off the coast of Somalia, Deep-sea dredging in the Horn of Africa is heavily restricted due to geopolitical instability and piracy, There are about ten of them in the world. This is also a world record because the photo on wrs-shells.com is of Vasum stephanti and not lactisfloris. The quality of the found individuals could be described as excellent, with slightly pinched inner lip, other is perfect, i think F++/F+++, perfect apex. Its from old collection, the only chance to get this beauty, more photos available, I am giving a starting price of €200, due to the possibility of adding more photos. This shell is perhaps being sold commercially for the first time, I think its value is in the thousands of euros.
