Philippines shells pokaletPhilippines shells pokalet I would like to have stayed six months in Ceylon to cover the dozens of good diving areas including Colombo harbor, where we found Murex palmarosa and Cypraea interrupta. But after a few more days around Colombo we checked in with the customs-house people. They were not very happy to see us, as they insisted on checking all of our baggage which consisted mostly of very smelly sea shells. Philippines shells pokaletPhilippines shells pokalet In the lower branches near the ocean bottom might be found species of Cymatium, Nassarius papillosus, Latirus nodus (although this shell is more likely to be found out in the open), and several smaller cone species. The fine silt under the coral head is a likely place for Conus textile and striatus, spiceri, pertusus, and Distorsio anus, to mention a few of the more uncommon shells. Conus leopardus is usually found out in the open in sandy or slightly silty areas such as between the coral heads and coral rubble in the photo. This also applies to Murex insularum and some of the more common deep water cones such as lividus, flavidus, imperialis, morletti, and in shallower water, ebraeus and chaldaeus. An area as shown in the accompanying photograph should provide collecting for at least 35 minutes which is my usual time for a single cylinder of air in 60 to 70 feet of water. It could easily produce 15 to 20 species of shells. The secret of rewarding collecting is thoroughness and patience. Like gold, the shells are there. All you have to do is find them.
