Mikadotrochus hirasei (6477964783) (2)
Description:
Description: [syn. Pleurotomaria hirasei] Emperor's or Hirasei's Slit Shell Pleurotomariidae Rare Bohol, The Philippines H: 58 mm; W: 65.5 mm This was an unexpected gift from a friend in The Philippines. NOTE: I have not collected live shells since the mid-1970's. I believe that the animal itself is much more valuable alive than destroyed for its shell. Date: 30 November 2011, 12:10.
