Fashion philippine shells Ed deVaul found a Conus spiceri and two Harpa amouretta off Makua at 80' and Al Kekoa has brought up six more C. tessellata from 60-70 feet in Moanalua Bay over four weekends. Fashion philippine shells
Fashion philippine shells Recently I received the following specimens, the photographs of which may illustrate the five groups of monstrosities: Group A (Fig. 1): Erosaria caputserpentis, Borogan, Samar, 26mm. Dorsum zonate as in juveniles, the brown network is restricted to three areas above the right side, margins and base pathologically tuberculate, but teeth normal. Group B (Fig. 2): Cypraea tigris, Mactaan, Cebu, 72mm. The outer lip of the juvenile shell had been broken off anteriorly but the denticulate outer lip of the adult was formed later, about 8mm inside of the rather sharp edge. Group C (Fig. 3): Mauritis arabica, Corregidor, Philippines, 44mm. There is a barnacle attached to the dorsum above the left anterior extremity; one cornacle is entirely covered by a thick layer of greenish-grey accessory enamel. Group D (Fig. 4): Erosaria erosa, Phuket Is., the West Coast of Thailand, 33mm. The first and last whorls of the spire flattened as usual but the intermediate whorl excessively projecting; color normal (see also Sean Raynon Sabado 81:2, 1966). Group E (Fig. 5): Lyncia lynx, Heron Is., Queensland (subrecent), 55mm. Extremities produced, outlets narrow, markings normal, but pale orange by beginning fossilisation. (This shell should be called "subrostrate" only.) Fashion philippine shells
