AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Product Description & Scientific Data
Scientific name: Neodrillia enna (Dall, 1918) – traditionally listed in trade as Drillia enna.
Common name: Enna turret snail (engl. Enna Turrid).
Quality grade: GEM (absolutely immaculate collector condition; the strong axial ribs and fine spiral lines are flawlessly preserved, the aperture lip as well as the apex are completely undamaged).
Size: 55 mm (5.5 cm). A stately large specimen at the upper range of the species, which on average typically reaches only 35–45 mm.
Morphology: The shell is characterized by an elegant, turret-like elongated silhouette. The coloration is typically creamy white to light beige with characteristic light brown to yellowish spots or bands between the prominent ribs.
Family: Drilliidae (formerly placed within Turridae).
Origin & Habitat
Geographic origin: Bohol, Philippines (Central Visayas, Indo-Pacific). The deep-water islands of this region are considered a hotspot for perfectly developed Drilliidae.
Habitat: A marine benthic predator that lives on deeper sandy and rubble bottoms. It is usually collected by local fishermen using specially designed ground nets (tangle nets) from depths of about 50 to 150 meters.
