Description: You are admiring a longtime favorite of mine, as well as Murex collectors worldwide, a Pterynotus miyokoae (Kosuge, 1979), w/operculum & measuring quite large at 56.6mm and graded Gem...an absolutely incredible form with beautifully flared varices & an outstanding color pattern with breathtaking markings are displayed...an exceptional, deep H2O specimen & about as perfect a specimen as I have ever seen. This beauty was collected in tangle nets at 200-300m off Balut Island, Philippines. An amazing Muricidae species, once considered very rare & today is starting to become very difficult to acquire...it is still considered a treasure in any collection. Thank you for visiting our store this afternoon...and an excellent choice, too. ***Special Note: I have heard that this species is no longer being collected (legally) in the Philippines which means supplies will be dwindling & this species will become quite rare again.
