Hello,
I have a new Cyp. from Eilat (Red-Sea Israel). So what you thinking???...

[PVDB]

Very special indeed - something like an incomplete or aborted double anterior terminal , but that seems not yet to exist (or does it?).Congratulations , Nice shell! if some day You decide to throw it away I will be Your humble servitor.

I could by the following shell from an old german inhabitant, who settled on a philippine island after a shipwreck. He pretends this is a rusty aurantium and that it is worth quite a lot of XXL mochito's.He found it himself at the risk of his own life and there was a very old and worn parchment label inside with the handwriting of - in alphabetic order : Guido, Felix,Pat, Luigi and PVDB. As my name was written on this 100% genuine label - something I absolutely do not understand, because I cannot write since the time my hand was amputated by a giant malicious tridacna monsteriformis - I presume that I had to recuperate this cribraria keulnatoriformis forma pagobensis and to put it in the section of the albino campfirensis. I swear You that all I tell You is absolutely incorrect on the stomach of the the pleuromotaria cornucopiensis (that by the way was not rapid enough the catch my remaining other fifteen hands.Stupid bivalve!).



I am back again - PVDB - may Your worst nightmare be a basket full of perfect cypraea midwayensis just 10 cm out of reach.Amen.
