Description: .About this shell: Muricidae Homalocantha Scorpio Author: Linnaeus, 1758Common Name: Scorpion/Faurot's/Digitate MurexSize: 41.68 mmLocality: PhilippinesOrigin: Traded with Phil Crandall. Collected live - Apr 1976.Very nice top quality specimen that is mostly black with long perfect fronds. This specimen is nearly 50 years old and continues to be beautiful. This is part of our late father’s large collection of seashells he obtained while stationed on Okinawa, Japan in 1974-1978. His interests in shells grew from more than the Indo-Pacific species when he engaged in trading his shells with some of the prominent collectors around the world. He was an avid scuba diver and seashell collector. The results of many deep dives led to the creation of a collection of some of the best shells Okinawa had to offer. Ted’s shells have been cared for and stored for the past 50 years. All are in excellent condition. My sister and I are listing shells after researching them for value, quality and uniqueness. We are not conchologists and are giving our opinion on the condition and quality of the shell when compared to other listings. Thanks for your interest in this shell. Please check out the feedback provided by satisfied seashell buyers. My sister and I have two ebay accounts to list my father's shells. If you don't see anything of interest in my listing, please look at the shells my sister has posted (username: shells4you)
