Description from the seller
Product Description & Scientific Data
Scientific name: Nassaria recurva (G. B. Sowerby II, 1859).
Common name: Curved Giant Nassa snail (English: Recurved Phos / Recurved Nassaria).
Quality level: GEM (Flawless collectible; the pronounced, lattice-like surface sculpture of axial ribs and spiral bands is perfectly preserved, the delicate aperture and apex show no damage).
Size: 35 mm (3.5 cm). A stately, fully grown adult specimen. The typical average size of this species usually lies between 25 mm and 35 mm, placing this piece in the upper size range.
Morphology: Characteristic for this species is the elegantly spindle-shaped, robust shell with the named, slightly posteriorly curved siphonal canal (recurva) as well as a strongly developed aperture lip.
Family: Nassariidae (Nassa snails).
Origin & Habitat
Geographic origin: Bohol, Philippines (Central Visayas, Indo-Pacific). Very commonly collected specifically in front of deep-sea islands such as Balicasag Island.
Habitat: A benthic marine species that mainly lives on sandy and muddy soft bottoms. It is usually fished by local fishermen using special bottom nets (Tangle Nets) from mid depths (about 40 to 150 meters).
