Description from the seller
Product Description & Scientific Data
Scientific name: Amoria macandrevi (Sowerby III, 1887) – often listed as Amoria macandrewi.
Common name: Macandrews Volute (Macandrew's Volute).
Quality grade: GEM (absolutely flawless pristine condition; high-gloss, porcelain-like enamel on the shell, sharply defined spindle folds, and a completely undamaged, graceful aperture lip without any chips).
Size: 50 mm (5.0 cm). A perfectly proportioned, fully mature standard specimen for this species.
Morphology: The shell captivates with its elegant, spindle-shaped symmetry. The coloring displays an attractively fine network of tent-like brown lines and axial zigzag stripes on a cream-white to slightly flesh-colored background.
Family: Volutidae (Volutes).
Origin & Habitat
Geographical origin: Barrow Island, Pilbara coast, Western Australia (Northwest Shelf).
Habitat: A strictly marine, predatory gastropod species. It is endemic to the waters of Western Australia and is primarily collected at extreme low tides on broad, shallow sand flats or in the shallow substrate of tidal zones.
